We sought to determine whether the antihypertensive drug nebivolol has beneficial effects on vascular markers of inflammation and oxidation in obese African-American patients with hypertension when exposed to exercise-induced stress. Forty-three obese, African-American subjects with hypertension were treated with nebivolol (5-10?mg/day) for 8 weeks. Before treatment the subjects underwent an exercise treadmill study to a level of eight metabolic equivalents. Circulating levels of soluble interleukin-6 (sIL-6), vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM-1), adiponectin and leptin were measured at pre-treadmill, and 1?min, 30?min, 60?min and 24?h after treadmill. After the 8-week treatment period, exercise treadmill study and the measurement of markers were repeated. Treatment with nebivolol reduced levels of sVCAM-1 at pre-exercise by 21% and at 1 and 30?min by 12.5 and 20%, respectively (P<0.005 from corresponding time point). In nebivolol-treated patients there was a reduction in sIL-6 levels by 20% and pre-exercise and at 1 and 60?min by 19.7 and 33.5%, respectively (P<0.005 from corresponding time point). Treatment with nebivolol increased levels of serum adiponectin by 28% (P=0.012) and decreased levels of leptin by 32% (P<0.005 from pre-treatment). Treatment with nebivolol improves markers of inflammation and obesity in a high-risk African-American population. Moreover, this effect is potentiated in response to exercise-induced stress. These results suggest that nebivolol differentially regulates markers of inflammation and obesity, thereby providing vascular protection.
