Abstract

Immunopharmacological studies show that medicines used in cardiovascular diseases (atherosclerosis, ischaemic heart disease, heart failure) can exert immunomodulatory effects on proinflammatory cytokines. In the paper the influence of statins, fibrates, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI), beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers and phosphodiesterase inhibitors on the activity of cytokines was introduced.
