[New trends in pharmacotherapy of cardiovascular diseases].
There has not been a year that would not have brought something new, often upheaval in the field of cardiovascular pharmacotherapy during last decades. This overview addresses the perspectives that may be expected in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in the coming years. As for the field of dyslipidemy treatment there are some new options of blocking cholesterol resorption at the enterocyte level opening up in the field of dyslipidemy treatment (e.g. brush border transport system inhibitors, inhibitors of esterification or bind to apolipoprotein), further big revolution may be foreseen in the field of the stimulation of peroxysomal receptors controlling the lipids and glycides metabolism. It is also the field of antithrombotic drugs where we encounter the series of innovative approaches as the inhibitors of receptors facilitating the thrombocyte adhesion, new direct thrombin inhibitors or tissue factor blockers. There is no significant advance in the field of arrhythmias pharmacology, that field is completely posessed by electro-impulse therapy and ablative methods. On the contrary, great perspectives may be foreseen in the field of heart failure therapy. Along with the new methods moderating hyperactivated regulation mechanisms (e.g. renin or vasopeptidases inhibitors) promising is the field of the new inotropics active without increasing the supply of calcium (calcium sensitizers, the stimulators of sarcoplasmatic calcium ATPase). In the field of diuretics there may be expected the introduction of adiuretin blockers (akvaretics). Finally the last promising field is represented by the drugs intervening the metabolism of non-cellular matrix which are expected primarily to have a positive influence on the ventricle remodellation.
