  3. Both ACEi and ARBs reduce blood pressure • Only ACEi (and especially perindopril) reduce all cause and cardiovascular mortality and the risk if pneumonia

  9. Endothelium • Weight: 1.5 kg, surface: >800 m2 • Produces >250 active substances • Undergoes the life and death cycle

  10. Atheroma formation and progression:a struggle between death and regeneration • Endothelial cells undergo suicide (apoptosis) and regenerate, every 3 months • When a mismatch occurs and apoptosis exceed regeneration, the endothelium loses its continuity causing: - Progression of atherosclerosis - Acute coronary syndrome - Myocardial infarction

  11. PERTINENT substudy Incubated (72 h) with serum from Isolation of human endothelium Healthy subjects EUROPA patients ecNOSApoptosis To mimic the effects of circulating blood on endothelial function

  16. How does perindopril reduce endothelial apoptosis? By reducing angiotensin-II and TNF-α (pro-apoptotic) By enhancing bradykinin (anti-apoptotic)

  17. What about endothelial regeneration ? Bone marrowproduces endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) to be incorporated into vessels

  20. ACE inhibition (with perindopril) reduces death and improves life of the endothelium Protection against ACS

  21. What about ARBs? Do ARBs have the same effects on the endothelium ? Are ARBs equivalentto ACE inhibitors? NO

  22. ARBs have little (or no) effect on bradykinin • Do not reduce endothelial apoptosis • Do not improve endothelial regeneration

  23. ANG II AT3 6 AT2 AT1 • VASODILATATION • NO WATER RETENTION • ANTI PROLIFERATION • PRO APOPTOSIS • VASOCONSTRICTION • WATER RETENTION • PROLIFERATION • ANTI APOPTOSIS SEVERAL OTHER EFFECTS

  24. ANG II ARB’s AT3 6 AT2 AT1 • VASODILATATION • NO WATER RETENTION • ANTI PROLIFERATION • PRO APOPTOSIS • VASOCONSTRICTION • WATER RETENTION • PROLIFERATION • ANTI APOPTOSIS SEVERAL OTHER EFFECTS

  27. Conclusion The goal of hypertension treatment is to reduce blood pressure and the risk of CV mortality ACEi and ARBs both control blood pressure

  28. ACEi are far better than ARBs in CAD prevention and reduction of overall mortality • If the medical community continues to ignore this evidence and to prescribe ARBs for hypertension, patients will be deprived of the benefits of ACEi

  29. Between all ACEi, Perindopril has the most evidence for cardiac protection through the entire cardiovascular continuum

  30. Morbi-mortality trials on perindopril along the cardiovascular disease continuum(n=50 822) Post-stroke patients n=6 105 Patients with stable CAD n=12 218 Post-AMI patients n=1 252 Hypertensive patients n=19 257 Diastolic HF n=850 Patients with diabetes n=11 140

  31. Risk of pneumonia with use of ACEi compared with ARBs BMJ 2012 Caldeira et al

  32. ARBs are not just ACEi without the cough! • The cough is not always deleterious • Consider the evidence vs perception

  33. ACEi but not ARBs reduce the risk of pneumonia • This finding discourages the withdrawal of ACEi in patients with tolerable cough at risk of CAD and pneumonia

  34. Perception is not always reality
