Despite recent advances in therapeutic strategies and drug treatments (e.g., statins) for coronary artery disease (CAD), CAD-related mortality and morbidity remain high. Active bidirectional interactions between the gut microbiota and the heart implicate that probiotic application could be a novel therapeutic strategy for CAD. This study hypothesized that coadministration of atorvastatin and probiotics could synergistically protect against CAD. Our results demonstrated that coadministering Probio-M8 with a conventional regimen offered added benefits to patients with CAD compared with conventional treatment alone. Our findings have provided a wide and integrative view of the pathogenesis and novel management options for CAD and CAD-related diseases.
