Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Current guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension endorse β-adrenergic receptor blocking agents (beta-blockers, BBs) as being particularly useful for hypertension in specific situations such as symptomatic angina, tachycardia, post-myocardial infarction, heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), and as an alternative to angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) in hypertensive women planning pregnancy or at least of child-bearing potential. One of the most common uses of BBs is in patients with a recent myocardial infarction, with or without hypertension. Although this one use is specifically in a setting of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), it is not primarily for atheroprevention, but rather for cases with impaired systolic function, and it is intended primarily to lessen adverse cardiac remodeling and worsening of congestive heart failure (CHF). The BB class consists of numerous agents which differ widely in pharmacologic properties and physiologic effects. These differences include selectivity for β-adrenergic receptors and their subtypes, hydro- or lipophilicity, effects on blood pressure and heart rate, influence on lipoprotein and glucose metabolism, and direct impact on the artery wall, including platelet reactivity, endothelial function, infiltration of inflammatory cells and on inflammation per se, and on smooth muscle cell proliferation. Importantly, BBs are not commonly used for prevention of atherosclerosis or ASCVD per se. Many studies of early-generation BBs showed adverse effects on lipoprotein levels and metabolism of glucose and insulin and thus discouraged their use in atheroprevention. Nevertheless, newer BBs often have neutral or favorable metabolic effects on these important factors in ASCVD pathophysiology, and recent scientific studies now document direct beneficial effects of BBs on the artery wall. This document reviews both types of newer data, not only to encourage consideration of BB treatment to reduce ASCVD in the present, but also to call for future research to better explore the clinical settings in which BBs may be proven to have additional benefit in preventing ASCVD when added to the better-established treatments for dyslipidemia and diabetes. RECENT FINDINGS Relatively recent publications have clarified the diversity among BBs regarding adverse, neutral, or favorable effects on lipoproteins (especially triglycerides (TG) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL)) and on glucose/insulin metabolism. Specifically, the newer BBs (metoprolol ER, carvedilol ER, bisoprolol, and nebivolol) are now documented to be metabolically beneficial. These new data are complex but instructive regarding potential mechanisms of the diverse effects of various BBs on metabolism. Further and more importantly, these new data refute the traditional, but now outmoded, concept that BBs are universally harmful metabolically and therefore must be used sparingly, if at all, for atheroprevention. Recent studies have also reported exciting new data regarding how certain BBs can reduce platelet adhesion and improve the function of the major cell types in the artery wall, including the endothelium, macrophages, and smooth muscle cells. Specifically, BBs can improve endothelial function by enhancing arterial vasodilation and by reducing monocyte adhesion and transmigration. Further, BBs can decrease numbers and activity of inflammatory cells, including decreasing proliferation of smooth muscle cells and their transformation into inflammatory cells. These data help with the crucial step of distinguishing among available BBs regarding their likely overall arterial effects, whether to accelerate or prevent the development of atherosclerosis. In this regard, there is even some limited published information beyond these intermediary steps, going directly to the clinically more important endpoints of atherosclerosis and ASCVD events. The negative metabolic effects observed with the use of traditional/earlier generations of BBs have discouraged use of any BBs to prevent ASCVD. These adverse effects are not seen, however, with newer BBs. Thus, BBs continue to be a useful component of combination regimens not only in the treatment of arterial hypertension, heart failure, and arrhythmia, but also potentially in the prevention of atherosclerosis and ASCVD. Despite this exciting potential, further research is greatly needed to better establish the possible benefits of the most promising BBs as they might work in combination with other better-established atheropreventive agents. Specifically, there is a need for randomized, prospective, cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) in high-risk patients, adding a BB to background LDL-lowering (statins, etc.), TG-lowering (specifically icosapent ethyl, which reduces ASCVD in patients with high TG, although apparently not via TG-lowering), and/or anti-diabetic (sodium glucose transport-2 inhibitors, SGLT2i, and glucagon-like protein-1 receptor agonists, GLP1-RA) treatments, as indicated in a given subject population.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To discuss the recent evidence pointing the benefits of the bariatric surgery on blood pressure control in patients with obesity and hypertension. Particular focus is devoted to discuss the potential impact on resistant hypertension. RECENT FINDINGS Growing evidence suggest that bariatric surgery promotes not only a significant reduction in the anti-hypertensive medication while maintained blood pressure control but also a significant proportion of hypertension remission as compared to the usual care. In a sub-analysis of the GATEWAY trial using both office and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, the prevalence of resistant hypertension significantly decreased after 12 months in the surgical group whereas the numbers remained stable in the control group. Despite the lack of robust evidence, preliminary findings underscore the strong need to explore the potential role of bariatric surgery on resistant hypertension in patients with obesity. This statement is justified not only for the burden of obesity in this scenario but also for the unmet demands in managing resistant hypertension appropriately by multiple drug-therapy or the lack of real utility of procedures like renal denervation and carotid baroreflex activation.

Carvedilol improves glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in treatment of adrenergic overdrive in high fat diet-induced obesity in mice. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0224674.

Abstract
Catecholamine excess reflecting an adrenergic overdrive of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) has been proposed to link to hyperleptinemia in obesity and may contribute to the development of metabolic disorders. However, relationship between the catecholamine level and plasma leptin in obesity has not yet been investigated. Moreover, whether pharmacological blockade of the adrenergic overdrive in obesity by the third-generation beta-blocker agents such as carvedilol could help to prevent metabolic disorders is controversial and remains to be determined. Using the high fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mouse model, we found that basal plasma norepinephrine, the principal catecholamine as an index of SNS activity, was persistently elevated and highly correlated with plasma leptin concentration during obesity development. Targeting the adrenergic overdrive from this chronic norepinephrine excess in HFD-induced obesity with carvedilol, a third-generation beta-blocker with vasodilating action, blunted the HFD-induced hepatic glucose over-production by suppressing the induction of gluconeogenic enzymes, and enhanced the muscular insulin signaling pathway. Furthermore, carvedilol treatment in HFD-induced obese mice decreased the enlargement of white adipose tissue and improved the glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity without affecting body weight and blood glucose levels. Our results suggested that catecholamine excess in obesity might directly link to the hyperleptinemic condition and the therapeutic targeting of chronic adrenergic overdrive in obesity with carvedilol might be helpful to attenuate obesity-related metabolic disorders.

Circulating bone morphogenetic protein-9 levels are associated with hypertension and insulin resistance in humans. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2018; 12:372-380. [PMID: 29550458 DOI: 10.1016/j.jash.2018.02.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2017] [Revised: 02/02/2018] [Accepted: 02/15/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
It has been demonstrated that bone morphogenetic protein-9 (BMP-9) may have an important role in vascular development and stability. However, the association of circulating BMP-9 with essential hypertension (HTN) has not been established in humans. The objective of this study is to observe the changes of circulating BMP-9 levels in patients with HTN and to investigate the association of circulation BMP-9 and insulin resistance (IR) in a cross-sectional study. Two hundred twenty-five individuals, including 132 patients with hypertension, and 93 healthy controls, were included in the present study. Circulating BMP-9 concentrations were measured with an ELISA kit. The association of circulating BMP-9 with other parameters was analyzed. When compared with healthy subjects, circulating BMP-9 concentrations were markedly lower in HTN patients (46.20 [31.85-62.80] vs. 77.21 [39.33-189.15], P < .01) and correlated negatively with blood pressure and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (P < .05 or P < .01). Decreasing levels of BMP-9 were independently and markedly related to HTN. In a multiple linear regression analysis, only systolic blood pressure and free fatty acid concentrations were independently associated with circulating BMP-9. Our findings suggest that BMP-9 may be a serum biomarker for HTN and IR.

Abstract
Obesity continues to increase in prevalence worldwide. Hypertension has long been associated with obesity, and weight loss continues to be a first-line therapy in the treatment of hypertension. Lifestyle modification and pharmacologic therapy, however, often meet with treatment failure. Bariatric surgery continues to be the most successful approach to sustained weight loss. This review focuses on the underlying physiologic mechanisms of obesity-hypertension, and the impact of bariatric surgery on the treatment of hypertension. Current available literature on the physiologic mechanisms of obesity-hypertension, and the major trials, meta-analyses and systematic reviews of the impact of bariatric surgery procedures on hypertension are reviewed. Evidence suggests significant improvement in obesity-hypertension in patients who undergo surgical weight-reduction procedures. Malabsorptive techniques such as the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass or surgical resection techniques such as laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy appear to offer superior results in regards to hypertension control over restrictive techniques such as Gastric Banding. Though long-term control of hypertension following surgery remains a concern, available follow-up post-operative data of up to 10 years suggests a sustained, if lessened, effect on hypertension control over time.

Abstract
Scanty information is available on the effects of combination drug treatment based on an ACE inhibitor and a calcium channel blocker on the neurometabolic alterations characterizing obesity-related hypertension (OHT). After 2-week run-in with enalapril (20 mg), 36 OHTs were randomized according to a double-blind crossover design to a combination therapy with either lercanidipine 10 mg (L) or felodipine extended release 5 mg (F), each lasting 8 weeks. Measurements included clinic and ambulatory blood pressure (BP) and heart rate, homeostasis model assessment index, plasma norepinephrine, and muscle sympathetic nerve activity. Patients with uncontrolled BP were then uptitrated to 20 mg/d (L) and 10 mg/d (F) combined with enalapril 20 mg, respectively, for further 8 weeks. For similar BP reductions, enalapril-lercanidipine (EL) caused norepinephrine and MSNA increases significantly less pronounced than those seen with enalapril-felodipine, the lesser sympathoexcitation observed with EL being coupled with a significant improvement in homeostasis model assessment index. This was the case also when L and F were uptitrated in the combination. In OHT, at variance from enalapril-felodipine, EL combination is almost entirely devoid of any major sympathoexcitatory effect and is associated with an improvement in insulin sensitivity.
