| Research Abstract |
Atherosclerosis is one of the chronic inflammatory diseases, and the primary cause of heart disease or stroke in western countries. We investigated the effects of cyclophosphamide (CPA), a well-known immunomodulator and anticancer drug, in a murine model of established atherosclerosis. Continuous oral administration of CPA inhibited disease initiation in apolipoprotein E deficient, fed a high fat diet. Continuous CPA administration prevented from macrophage influx into formed atherosclerotic plaques. Here, atheroma progression was not significantly different even though a trend towards less plaque formation was observed in CPA-treated as compared to carrier-treated mice. Chemotherapy regulates lymphoid population like TH1/ TH2 balance in vivo. Additionally, pulse CPA treatment improved plaque stability with the decrease of matrixmetalloproteinase-2 and -9 expression. Our data suggest chemotherapy has a possibility as an optional therapy for advanced atherosclerosis.
