Abstract:
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease and the root cause of most cardiovascular diseases.Soluble guanylate cyclase(sGC)agonists play an important role in the regulation of atherosclerotic diseases by nitric oxide(NO)/sGC/cyclic guanosine phosphate(cGMP)signaling pathway.sGC plays an anti-atherosclerotic role in reducing blood lipid levels,improving endothelial dysfunction,reducing inflammatory responses,inhibiting platelet activation,in-hibiting smooth muscle cell proliferation and apoptosis via activating downstream cGMP.This article reviews the effect of sGC agonists on atherosclerosis and its mechanism,in order to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical application of sGC agonists.
