Mechanisms of Hypertension in Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases.
British Journal of Pharmacology 2019 Februrary 4
Patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases including rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus have an increased prevalence of hypertension. There is now a large body of evidence showing that the immune system is a key mediator in both human primary hypertension and in experimental models. Many of the proposed immunological mechanisms leading to primary hypertension are paralleled in autoimmune rheumatic disorders. Therefore, examining the link between autoimmunity and hypertension can be informative for understanding primary hypertension. This review examines the prevalent hypertension, the immune mediators that contribute to the prevalent hypertension and their impact on renal function, and how the risk of hypertension is potentially influenced by common hormonal changes that are associated with autoimmune rheumatic diseases.
