Effects of Spironolactone on Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α in the Patients Receiving Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Abstract: :We explored the protective effect of spironolactone on cardiac function in the patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) by determining serum hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) before and after CABG. We used the propensity score matching method retrospectively to select 174 patients undergoing CABG in our hospital from March 2018 to December 2019. Of the 174 patients, 87 patients taking spironolactone for more than 3 months before CABG were used as a test group and other 87 patients who wer… Show more

“…Spironolactone was distinctly effective in reducing the risk of new-onset AF, mirroring levels of vascular leak-inducing cytokines, which are only elevated in early-stage AF patients 5,6,[26][27][28] , suggesting that it may be uniquely useful in treating early-stage AF. Thus, our results, along with those of the aforementioned clinical trials 12,[47][48][49] suggest that spironolactone and mefloquine merit consideration for antiarrhythmic therapy specifically in early stages of AF in a setting of elevated inflammation.…”

“…Similar antiarrhythmic effects were observed with clinically relevant small molecule alternatives, mefloquine and spironolactone, at doses selected to maximize inhibition while minimizing any off-target effects. Notably, others, who evaluated spironolactone in AF as an aldosterone antagonist, reported antiarrhythmic efficacy in early-stage 12,47,48 but not persistent/permanent 49 AF patients. This highlights the relevance of a targeted therapeutic approach based on logical, mechanistic understanding of the underlying drivers of AF.…”
