Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The inflammatory reaction occurs following implantation of cardiovascular stent with manifestations of the activation of blood coagulation system and dramatically increasing of inflammatory markers serum C-reactive protein. OBJECTIVE: To explore the changes of inflammatory reaction and C-reactive protein in coronary artery disease patients following cardiovascular stent implantation.METHODS: A computer-based online search of CNKI (1990/2009) and PubMed databases (1990/2009) was performed for related articles with the key words "cardiovascular stent, C-reactive protein" in Chinese and "cardiovascular stent on plasma, C-reactive protein" in English.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Based on the metal stents, drug-eluting stents can transfer the active drugs to the damaged vessels, release them into the vascular wall and inhibit the in-stent restenosis, Main drugs of anti-inflammatory drug-eluting stent include dexamethasone and methylprednisolone. Main drugs of anti-migratory and anti-proliferative drug-eluting stent includerapamycin, paclitaxel and actinomycin D. Main drugs of supporting intima concrescence stent include estradiol. Coronary artery stents implantation can induce and aggravate local inflammation reaction, which have important infection for vascular endodermis hyperplasia and restenosis occurrence. Some impressible index for inflammation reaction, such as levels of C-reactive protein,have predictive value for vascular events following the coronary artery stents implantation. A significant increase in plasma C-reactive protein after coronary stenting has been observed following stent implantation. Therefore, understanding of inflammatory reaction and C-reactive protein, as well as cytokine changes is important for preventing restenosis, early treatment of restenosis, as well as improving treatment effect.
