OBJECTIVE
We aimed to examine the effects of colchicine, currently in clinical trials for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), on the viability of cardiac cells using a cell line model of AMI.
METHODS
HL-1, a murine cardiomyocyte cell line, and H9C2, a rat cardiomyoblast cell line, were incubated with
The usual treatment of pericarditis consists of non-steroid anti-inflammatory agents. In cases where the symptoms and/or the pericardial effusion persist or progress, the disease can be arrested in the majority of cases by employing steroids. In some patients, it may prove difficult to conclude
The inflammatory response is frequent after acute myocardial infarction, and may worsen ischaemia-reperfusion injuries, leading to increased infarct size and poor prognosis. Therefore, inflammation may be a promising therapeutic target, and anti-inflammatory drugs appear to be potential additional
In the randomized, placebo-controlled Colchicine Cardiovascular Outcomes Trial (COLCOT) of 4745 patients enrolled within 30 days after myocardial infarction, low-dose colchicine (0.5 mg once daily) reduced the incidence of the primary composite endpoint of cardiovascular death, BACKGROUND
Several studies have reported that colchicine attenuated the infarct size and inflammation in acute myocardial infarction (MI). However, the sustained benefit of colchicine administration on survival and cardiac function after MI is unknown. It was hypothesized that the short-term
BACKGROUND
Inflammation is deeply involved in the pathophysiology of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) lesions and ventricular remodeling due to an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Colchicine as a pleiotropic anti-inflammatory molecule may exert cardioprotective effects under acute ischemia. Here, we
Myocardial injury after ischemia/reperfusion has been attributed in part to the effects of neutrophils. We examined whether colchicine, a potent and rapid inhibitor of neutrophils, may reduce inflammatory leukocytosis, prevent postischemic myocardial neutrophil accumulation, and reduce infarct size
BACKGROUND
Inflammation plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. A clinical trial has recently reported a smaller infarct size in a cohort of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI) treated with a short colchicine course. The
Aims: The COLchicine Cardiovascular Outcomes Trial (COLCOT) demonstrated the benefits of targeting inflammation after myocardial infarction (MI). We aimed to determine whether time-to-treatment initiation (TTI) influences the beneficial
Localized administration of anti-inflammatory agents benefits patients after myocardial infarction (MI) by repressing/modulating inflammatory response of the MI region and thus accelerating repair of the impaired tissues. Colchicine (Col), an ancient natural drug, has excellent anti-inflammatory
OBJECTIVE
The ability of antiinflammatory strategies to alter cardiovascular risk has not been rigorously examined. Colchicine is an antiinflammatory agent that affects macrophages, neutrophils, and endothelial cells, all of which are implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. We
BACKGROUND
Inflammation is involved during acute myocardial infarction, and could be an interesting target to prevent ischaemia-reperfusion injuries. Colchicine, known for its pleiotropic anti-inflammatory effects, could decrease systemic inflammation in this context.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the
Following an acute myocardial infarction (MI), patients with persistently elevated biomarkers of inflammation, in particular C-reactive protein (CRP), are at significantly increased risk of further cardiovascular events. Colchicine is a unique anti-inflammatory medication that has BACKGROUND
Inflammatory processes have been identified as key mediators of the deleterious effects of ischemia/reperfusion in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. Colchicine is a substance with potent anti-inflammatory properties, suitable for safe use in patients with cardiovascular disease.
Experimental and clinical evidence support the role of inflammation in atherosclerosis and its complications. Colchicine is an orally administered, potent antiinflammatory medication that is indicated for the treatment of gout and pericarditis.We performed
