Changes in Regional Cerebral Blood Flow Are Associated With Endothelial Dysfunction Markers in Cocaine-Dependent Patients Under Recent Abstinence

Abstract: We demonstrated an association between systemic ED markers and rCBF in cocaine-dependent patients. These findings suggest that vascular injury may play a role in the pathogenesis of abnormal rCBF.

“…NO, produced by nitric oxide synthase (NOS), relaxes blood vessel wall smooth muscle cells, resulting in vasodilation. Cocaine has been reported to cause vascular endothelial cell dysfunction [10, 11] and interfere with the synthesis and/or release of NO [12]. …”

“…Compared to healthy controls, cocaine-dependent individuals show twice the rate of brain volume reduction a year, especially of the prefrontal and temporal regions [9]; in methamphetamine users the rate of decline in grey matter is 6.4–8.5% a year in the frontal, temporal, insula and occipital cortices [51]. Cannabis is associated with reduced hippocampus volume [52], Cocaine [53], methamphetamine [54], and heroin [55] addicted-individuals show intra- and extra-cranial artery dysfunction. Pathologies commonly observed in the brain of aged individuals (e.g., primary age-related taupathy) indeed appear earlier in drug addicted individuals as compared to non-addicted individuals.…”

“…Para las CEC se usaron tubos de 5 ml con anticoagulante EDTA; para los marcadores solubles, sangre anticoagulada con citrato de sodio al 3.2%. La enumeración de CEC se realizó mediante captura de éstas con inmunoesferas magnéticas cubiertas con anticuerpo anti-CD146 y microscopía de fluorescencia según protocolo del laboratorio previamente descrito 5 . Los niveles de sVCAM, sICAM y FvW se determinaron mediante ELISA (Bender Med Systems).…”

“…Recientemente, se ha descrito que la resincronización cardíaca se asocia a mejoría de la DE estudiada mediante vasodilatación mediada por flujo utilizando técnica ecográfica con compresión de arteria braquial, sin embargo, no se han evaluado marcadores circulantes de DE 3 . Entre estos, las células endoteliales circulantes (CEC) han mostrado ser un marcador sensible y específico en patologías inflamatorias asociadas a daño vascular tipo vasculitis 4 , usuarios de cocaína 5,6 y depresión mayor 7,8 . Por otra parte, el péptido natriurético cerebral (pro-BNP) ha sido utilizado para evaluar la ICC en distintas condiciones y es interesante conocer su comportamiento con relación a la terapia de resincronización ventricular (TRV) 9, 10 y asociación con la DE.…”
