All Rights Reserved. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Statins alone are ineffective in cerebral malaria but potentiate artesunate Statins are a family of lipid-lowering drugs widely used to control cholesterol level and to prevent stroke and cardiac failure in patients at high risk of coronary artery disease. Recently, statins demonstrated pleiotropic cholesterol-independent effects (1). Used after stroke, statins proved to be neuroprotective in the setting of cerebral ischemia with improved functional outcome in patients (2). Used after septic insult, statins demonstrated increased survival time due to restoration of cardiac function and haemodynamic status (3). These effects occur before cholesterol lowering and without pre-treatment. According to these benefits, we postulate that statins could be considered as new potential drugs during acute cerebral infectious diseases. Among these, cerebral malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum is still one of the worst killers in tropical countries. Considering the role of inflammatory and ischemic injuries during cerebral malaria, we addressed the place of statins as emergency treatment in a clinically relevant murine model. Statins differ in terms of their chemical structures, pharmacokinetic profiles and lipid modifying efficacy (4). As differences could be expected in HMG-coA reductase inhibition, several statins were tested for neuroprotective potential. Pravastatin, fluvastatin, simvastatin and atorvastatin were compared to the neuroprotective effect of erythropoietin, known to provide 60% survival in an experimental model of cerebral malaria (5). Pravastatin and fluvastatin were administrated at high doses (40 to 200 mg/kg), simvastatin at 40 mg/kg and atorvastatin at 20 mg/kg, once per day for three to five days at the onset of the disease. Surprisingly, all statins used alone failed to prevent death from cerebral malaria (table I), and it raises questions for the scientific community during a recent meeting (6). Despite the in vitro antimalarial effect of atorvastatin described by Pradines et al (7), none of these statins showed an effect on parasitemia in mice when used at the same range of doses than in vitro ( µm). There is a growing body of literature suggesting that the 1
2 pleiotropic effects of statins may be useful in a wide range of indications, including post-stroke reperfusion, septic insult, anticancer drug resistance and inflammatory rheumatoid diseases. While statins failed to prevent death, it could be speculated that it could act as adjuvant therapy. Mice were treated with a drug combination of artesunate and atorvastatin in the same conditions than described, and we observed a significant improvement in survival at day 13 post-infection, compared to atorvastatin alone (p<0.02, log-rank test, cumulative survival analysis, figure1). Considering sepsis, authors speculated that statins could be a panacea (8). In the light of our observations during cerebral malaria, this new paradigm should rather be reconsidered as an adjuvant effect. As pleiotropic effects may largely depend on the pathophysiology of the respective disease and on the patient status, convincing clinical trials are needed to explore the scope of these drugs. The safety of statins when administrated after the insult also needs to be addressed since these molecules were not originally designed for these therapeutic approaches. 2
