Antineoplastické účinky simvastatínu u experimentálnej rakoviny prsníka

Východiská:
Statíny (inhibítory 3-hydroxy-3-metylglutaryl koenzým A reduktázy) predstavujú látky s dobre dokumentovanými terapeutickými a preventívnymi účinkami u kardiovaskulárnych ochorení. V predklinických štúdiách statíny preukázali tumor-supresívne účinky u viacerých typov neoplázií vrátane rakoviny prsníka.

Materiál a metódy:
V tejto štúdii sme hodnotili antineoplastický účinok simvastatínu v chemoprevencii N-metyl-N-nitrozoureou – indukovanej mamárnej karcinogenézy u samíc potkanov. Farmakum bolo aplikované v potrave vo dvoch koncentráciách – 18 mg/ kg (SIMVA 18) a 180 mg/ kg (SIMVA 180).

Výsledky:
Po dlhodobej aplikácii simvastatínu sme na konci pokusu vyhodnotili základné parametre experimentálnej karcinogenézy. Simvastatín v skupine SIMVA 180 signifikantne znížil frekvenciu nádorov o 80,5 % a incidenciu nádorov o 58,5 % v porovnaní s kontrolou. Simvastatín v tej istej skupine zvierat nesignifikantne znížil priemerný objem nádorov o 23,5 % a nesignifikantne predĺžil latenciu o 14,5 dňa v porovnaní s kontrolnými zvieratami. U simvastatínu podávaného v nižšej dávke sme nepozorovali antineoplastické účinky. Simvastatín v oboch liečených skupinách signifikantne znížil sérové hladiny triacylglycerolov a VLDL-cholesterolu v porovnaní s kontrolnými zvieratami. V porovnaní s kontrolami sme v skupinách SIMVA 18 a SIMVA 180 pozorovali signifikantný nárast príjmu potravy u zvierat. Signifikantné zmeny prírastku telesnej hmotnosti medzi skupinami so simvastatínom a kontrolnou skupinou neboli zistené.
