Reduction of LDL-cholesterol concentration in serum, blocking the isoprenylation of GTPases and the activation of myocyte-protective enzyme systems are three mechanisms that currently explain the lipid and non-lipid effects of statins. However, the decrease of LDL-cholesterol, the reduction of inflammation biomarkers and even the atheroregresion, as surrogate effects to the mechanisms of action of statins would be irrelevant if not accompanied by a significant decrease in the incidence of cardiovascular events. Statins like no other pharmacological group have proven to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events and prolong life in any clinical scenario. This article review the basic and clinical evidence that support a new indication for HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors "pharmacological myocardial preconditioning before anticipated ischemia" or hyperacute use of statins in subjects with any coronary syndrome eligible for elective, semi-urgent or primary percutaneous coronary intervention: ARMYDA-Original, NAPLES I-II, ARMYDA-ACS, ARMYDA-RECAPTURE, Non-STEMI-Korean, Korean-STEMI trials.
降低血清中低密度脂蛋白胆固醇浓度、阻断GTP酶的异戊二烯化以及激活心肌保护酶系统是目前解释他汀类药物脂质和非脂质作用的三种机制。然而,如果不伴随心血管事件发生率的显著降低,作为他汀类药物作用机制的替代效应,低密度脂蛋白胆固醇的降低、炎症生物标志物的减少甚至动脉粥样硬化的消退都将是无关紧要的。与其他任何药物类别不同,他汀类药物已被证明在任何临床情况下都能降低心血管事件的发生率并延长寿命。本文回顾了支持HMG-CoA还原酶抑制剂新适应症的基础和临床证据,即“预期缺血前的药理学心肌预处理”或在符合择期、半紧急或直接经皮冠状动脉介入治疗的任何冠状动脉综合征患者中他汀类药物的超急性使用:ARMYDA-Original、NAPLES I-II、ARMYDA-ACS、ARMYDA-RECAPTURE、非ST段抬高型心肌梗死-韩国、韩国ST段抬高型心肌梗死试验。
