OBJECTIVES: To evaluate urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA), urokinase plasminogen activator soluble receptor (su-PAR), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) and tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) plasma levels in SSc patients (pts) versus healthy controls and their modulation by intravenous alphacyclodestrine (Alprostadil). METHODS: Plasma levels of u-PA, su-PAR, PAI-1 and t-PA were measured in 40 SSc (34 lSSc and 6 dSSc) pts and in 30 healthy controls. In SSc, blood was drawn before and after 3 consecutive daily of Alprostadil infusion (60 mg in 250 cc NaCl 0.9%). RESULTS: In SSc su-PAR basal levels were higher than controls (7.48 +/- 2.5 vs 4.69 +/- 0.4 ng/ml; p = 0.001) and were significantly reduced by Alprostadil (5.93 +/- 1.7; p = 0.002), but remain higher than controls (p = 0.03). u-PA basal levels were higher than controls (3.78 +/- 1.5 vs 1.29 +/- 0.3 ng/ml; p < 0.001) and were reduced by Alprostadil (2.39 +/- 1.7; p < 0.001) to control levels. SSc PAI-1 basal levels were lower than controls (31.60 +/- 7.7 vs 48.30 +/- 6.8 ng/ml; p < 0.001) and increased by Alprostadil (34.66 +/- 5.4; p = 0.04), but lower than controls (p < 0.001). SSc t-PA basal levels were higher in respect to controls (1645.81 +/- 792.7 vs 571.95 +/- 75.5 pg/ml; p < 0.0001) and reduced by Alprostadil (1318.06 +/- 603.5; p = 0.04), but still higher than controls (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: Fibrinolysis were increased in SSc. Infusions of Alprostadil modulate u-PA, su-PAR, PAI-1 and t-PA, restoring near normal levels. In SSc, fibrinolysis system may become a potential target for new therapies. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Many clinical and laboratory observations give support to the hypothesis that strict metabolic control by insulin infusion during acute coronary events may improve the ischemic damage and prognosis. HYPOTHESIS: We investigated the impact of intensive insulin treatment on fibrinolytic parameters during an acute ischemic myocardial event (unstable angina or acute myocardial infarction) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS: The study group consisted of 48 type 2 diabetic patients, of whom 24 were randomized to conventional therapy plus intensive insulin treatment (Group 1) and 24 to conventional therapy only (Group 2). The two groups were comparable according to gender, age, body mass index, waist:hip ratio, duration of diabetes, previous antidiabetic treatment, type of ischemic events, concomitant therapy, and the classic risk factors for coronary disease. Insulin-treated patients were excluded from the study. Plasma levels of fibrinogen, tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) were measured on admission and discharge. Fibrinogen (fibr) was measured using the photometric method. PAI-1 and t-PA were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. RESULTS: T-PA increased in both groups during hospitalization (t-PA(admission) vs. t-PA(discharge): Group 1: 15.42 +/- 4.4 ng x ml(-1) vs. 21.2 +/- 5.74 ng x ml(-1), p = 0.000037; Group 2: 14.47 +/- 6.31 ng x ml(-1) vs. 19.18 +/- 6.88 ng x ml(-1), p = 0.001). On the other hand, fibr and PAI-1 levels increased remarkably in controls (Group 2, fibr(admission) vs. fibr(discharge): 2.98 +/- 1.04 g x l(-1) vs. 3.59 +/- 1.01 g x l(-1), p = 0.002, and PAI-1admission vs. PAI-1 discharge: 30.6 +/- 17.34 ng x ml(-1) vs. 40.62 +/- 23.48 ng x ml(-1), p = 0.003). This finding was not observed in the intensive insulin treatment group (Group 1, fibr(admission) vs. fibr(discharge): 2.87 +/- 0.73 g x l(-1) vs. 2.67 +/- 0.72 g x l(-1), p = 0.101, and PAI-1 admission vs. PAI-1 discharge: 30.75 +/- 15.81 ng x ml(-1) vs. 27.75 +/- 6.43 ng x ml(-1), p = 0.484). CONCLUSION: Intensive insulin treatment during an acute coronary event improves fibrinolytic profile in patients with diabetes mellitus. This is a possible mechanism for the reduced short- and long-term mortality in diabetic patients treated with intensive insulin treatment protocol. 相似文献

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Esophageal variceal bleeding in liver cirrhosis is a major complication and has high mortality rate. We tried to find fibrinolytic parameters, which correlated with variceal bleeding in cirrhotic patients. METHODS: We divided the cirrhotic patients into two groups: bleeding group (group A, n=15) and non-bleeding group (Group B, n=17). Fibrinolytic parameters (fibrinogen, D-dimer, plasminogen, tissue plasminogen activator [t-PA], fibrin degradation product [FDP], and plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 [PAI-1]) were compared between two groups. In the group A, serial samplings were taken at the initial period, 3 days, 8 days, 15 days and 6 weeks after the bleeding onset. RESULTS: Plasma levels of FDP and D-dimer in the group A were significantly higher than the group B (1.7 +/- 1.16 vs. 0.95 +/- 1.27 mg/L and 10.96 +/- 6.58 vs. 4.99 +/- 3.50 micro gram/mL, respectively, p value<0.05). The clinical, biochemical, and coagulation parameters didn't show significant differences in both groups. The fibrinolytic parameters were improved along with the hemodynamic stabilization in group A. CONCLUSIONS: Cirrhotic patients with increased fibrinolytic activity were at higher risk of bleeding. Thus, the measurement of these parameters would be useful to identify patients at higher risk of esophageal variceal bleeding. 相似文献

The long-term behavior of endothelial markers was studied in patients with Eisenmenger syndrome who were subjected to conventional therapy (no vasodilators) and observed for 18 months. Biochemical markers were analyzed comparatively in patients with class II or III symptoms (group 1, n=10) and patients with class IV symptoms (group 2, n=7). Plasma von Willebrand factor antigen (vWF:Ag), thrombomodulin, tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and its inhibitor (PAI-1), and D-dimer were determined by immunoenzymatic assay at baseline, and at 6, 12, and 18 months. At baseline, the main clinical difference between groups was a decreased peripheral oxygen saturation in group 2 versus group 1 (77+/-5% and 86+/-4%, respectively, p=0.001). Basal vWF:Ag and t-PA were increased and thrombomodulin was decreased in both groups in comparison with controls (p<0.0001), while D-dimer was increased in group 2 only (p=0.0003). In response to treatment, there was a decrease in vWF:Ag in both groups (19% and 23%, respectively in groups 1 and 2, at 18 months vs. baseline, p<0.0001) and t-PA in group 1 (38% vs. baseline, p=0.0485). Plasma vWF:Ag tended to be higher in group 2 in comparison with group 1 during the whole follow-up. Levels of PAI-1 greater than 38.4 ng/mL (upper 90% limit for normals) and D-dimer greater than 500 ng/mL were detected in individual patients (both groups) during the follow-up period. Thrombomodulin remained decreased in both groups. Thus, severity of symptoms in the Eisenmenger syndrome appears to correlate with low oxygen saturation and higher vWF:Ag levels. Improvement of endothelial dysfunction may occur in response to treatment, although increased risk for thrombosis persists, in view of residual abnormalities. 相似文献

Acute hyperglycemia and acute hyperinsulinemia decrease plasma fibrinolytic activity and increase plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 in the rat 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
A. Pandolfi A. Giaccari C. Cilli M. M. Alberta L. Morviducci E. A. De Filippis A. Buongiorno G. Pellegrini G. Capani A. Consoli 《Acta diabetologica》2001,38(2):71-76
Decreased plasma fibrinolysis may contribute to accelerated atherothrombosis in diabetes. To observe whether hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia, common findings in type 2 diabetes, acutely affect plasma fibrinolysis in vivo, we evaluated plasma fibrinolysis (lysis of fibrin plates, free PAI-1 activity and t-PA activity) in the rat after a hyperglycemic euinsulinemic clamp (n=8), an euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp (n=7) or a saline infusion (n=15). Plasma fibrinolytic activity was sharply reduced after both the hyperglycemic and hyperinsulinemic clamps as compared to the respective controls (mean lysis areas on the fibrin plate, 139+/-21 vs. 323+/-30 mm2, p<0.001; 78+/-27 vs. 312+/-27 mm2 p<0.001, respectively). Plasma PAI-1 activity was greater after both hyperglycemic and hyperinsulinemic clamps as compared to saline infusion (6.6+/-2.6 vs. 1.6+/-0.6 IU/ml, p<0.001; 26+/-4 vs. 1.3+/-0.7 IU/ml, p<0.0001, respectively). Plasma t-PA activity was significantly reduced both after the hyperglycemic (0.36+/-0.15 vs. 2.17+/-0.18 IU/ml in controls, p<0.001) and the hyperinsulinemic (0.3+/-0.1 vs. 2.3+/-0.3 IU/ml in control, p<0.001) clamps. These data show that in vivo both acute hyperglycemia and acute hyperinsulinemia can decrease plasma fibrinolytic potential and that this is due to increased plasma PAI-1 and decreased free t-PA activities. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to determine whether chronic inflammation of the vascular wall may be associated with an impaired activation of the fibrinolytic system. BACKGROUND: Inflammation plays an important role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis, and the fibrinolytic system may prevent local thrombus formation. METHODS: We included 50 patients six months after their first myocardial infarction. Plasma levels of the inflammatory marker C-reactive protein (CRP) were determined at basal conditions, and the fibrinolytic parameters tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) were measured at basal conditions and after a standardized venous occlusion (VO) of the forearm. RESULTS: Patients with high CRP levels (> or =3 mg/l) showed a significantly higher t-PA activity at baseline compared with patients with medium (1 to 2.9 mg/l) and low (<1 mg/l) CRP levels (p <0.005). In contrast, patients with low CRP levels showed a higher increase of t-PA activity (p <0.05) and a higher reduction of PAI-1 activity during VO (p <0.05) compared with patients with medium and high CRP levels. A multivariate analysis that included cardiovascular risk factors and medical treatment showed that CRP is an independent predictor of the t-PA response after a standardized VO. CONCLUSIONS: Chronic low-grade inflammation is associated with enhanced activation of endogenous fibrinolysis at baseline but a reduced fibrinolytic response to VO. This impaired endogenous fibrinolytic capacity might be an important contributor to the increased coronary event rate associated with elevated CRP levels. 相似文献

Parameters of fibrinolysis, including plasminogen, alpha 2 plasmin-inhibitor (alpha 2 PI), tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) antigens, and fibrinogen were assayed in 53 patients (28 women and 27 men; mean age: 64 years, age range: 32-87 years) with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). The control group was similarly aged (mean age: 60.4 years, age range: 38-81). The levels of t-PA and t-PA/PAI-1 ratio of the diabetic group (mean +/- SD; 9.8 +/- 4.3 ng/ml, 0.94 +/- 0.47, respectively) were significantly higher than that of the control group (5.5 +/- 2.5 ng/ml, 0.51 +/- 0.23, respectively). The increased levels of t-PA antigen and t-PA/PAI-1 ratio in diabetics mean that free t-PA has been released. However, there was no significant difference in the level of PAI-1 between the diabetic group (12.9 +/- 6.4 ng/ml) and the control group (12.1 +/- 5.6 ng/ml). Levels of fibrinogen, plasminogen and alpha 2 PI in plasma were not different in the two groups. Duration of the disease, levels of glycosylated hemoglobin, differences in treatment and presense of diabetic nephropathy or retinopathy did not affect the fibrinolytic parameters. The levels of fibrinogen was higher in those with nephropathy than in the diabetics without nephropathy and retinopathy (p less than 0.05). There were no significant differences in the levels of t-PA, t-PA/PAI-1 ratio and PAI-1 between younger (less than 65 years) and older (65 years or more) subjects, in either the control or diabetic groups.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) are at risk for the development of cardiovascular diseases, which can in part be explained by disturbances in the hemostatic and fibrinolytic systems. The effects of rosiglitazone treatment on the fibrinolytic system and insulin sensitivity in patients with type 2 DM were assessed. Twenty-four patients with type 2 DM and 28 healthy subjects were enrolled in the study. Plasma global fibrinolytic capacity (GFC), tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) levels were measured. Insulin resistance was calculated by hoemostasis model assessment. Patients with type 2 DM then were placed on rosiglitazone (4 mg/day, for 12 weeks) in addition coexistent medication, and baseline tests were repeated. There was no difference between mean t-PA levels of the two groups. PAI-1 levels were higher in diabetic patients than control subjects (p < 0.01). Diabetic patients had lower GFC and t-PA/PAI-1 levels than control subjects (p < 0.05, p < 0.05). PAI-1 levels were positively correlated with waist circumference in diabetic group (r = 0.4, p < 0.05). After rosiglitazone treatment, there was no difference in mean plasma levels of GFC, t-PA, PAI-1 and t-PA/PAI-1 in diabetics. Insulin sensitivity significantly improved after the addition of rosiglitazone treatment in diabetic patients (p < 0.01). The short-term and low-dose treatment with rosiglitazone in type 2 diabetic patients has no effects on the fibrinolytic system, although it improves insulin sensitivity. 相似文献

The effects of alcohol withdrawal on fibrinolysis were studied in 10 middle-aged male chronic alcoholics institutionalized for withdrawal therapy. All patients were sampled on admission [day 1 (D1)] and 21 days after alcohol withdrawal [day 22 (D22)]. The overall plasma fibrinolytic capacity (OFC) was assayed by measuring the ability of patient plasma to generate D-dimers from a standardized fibrin clot, and tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and t-PA inhibitor (PAI-1) levels were assayed together with serum cholesterol, triglyceride and cholesterol fractions. At D22, the OFC significantly increased in seven patients [D1 = 10 +/- 0.7 microg/h (mean +/- SD), D22 = 17 +/- 7.4 microg/h; P < 0.01], while t-PA and PAI-1 levels decreased in all patients but two (t-PA: D1 = 16.6 +/- 5 ng/ml, D22 = 10.2 +/- 3.8 ng/ml; P < 0.001; and PAI-1: D1 = 46 +/- 39 ng/ml, D22 = 21 +/- 28 ng/ml; P < 0.01). This study clearly demonstrates an increase in overall fibrinolytic activity after alcohol withdrawal, which is mainly due to a decrease in PAI-1 levels. These changes induced by alcohol abstinence might provide clear benefit by reducing the risk of thromboembolic events and particularly of stroke associated with elevated PAI-1 levels described in heavy drinkers. 相似文献

Localized regulation of fibrinolytic protein gene expression is associated with the histologic extent of atherosclerosis. This regulation may be dependent on the presence of certain fibrinolytic protein gene polymorphisms. The relationship between the plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 HindIII and the tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) EcoR1 gene polymorphisms and the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) were investigated in 49 Caucasian patients with symptomatic CAD. There was a strong association between PAI-1, but not t-PA, gene polymorphisms and the extent of CAD detected by coronary angiography. Patients homozygous for the presence or absence of the PAI-1 HindIII (1/1, 2/2 PAI-1) gene polymorphisms had a significantly greater extent of CAD (number of diseased vessels) than patients with the respective heterozygous forms (vs. 1/2 PAI-1, P = 0.05). Stepwise ordinal multiple regression analysis of classic CAD risk factors and fibrinolytic protein genotypes indicated that only the PAI-1 genotypes were predictive of the extent of angiographic CAD (P = 0.019). Analysis of variance between classic risk factors and fibrinolytic protein genotypes identified an association between t-PA genotypes and a history of prior infarction or stroke. Fibrinolytic gene polymorphisms for PAI-1 are associated with the extent of CAD in symptomatic patients and with certain risk factors for coronary atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Characterization and fibrinolytic properties of human omental tissue mesothelial cells. Comparison with endothelial cells 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

It has been reported that omental fat tissue is a good source of human microvascular endothelial cells. By characterization we demonstrate that the epitheloid cells isolated from omental tissue are not endothelial cells, but mesothelial cells. They contain abundant cytokeratins 8 and 18, which are absent in endothelial cells, and vimentin. No staining with the endothelial-specific antibodies EN-4 and PAL-E is observed. A faint and diffuse staining of von Willebrand factor (vWF) is seen in mesothelial cells, whereas microvascular endothelial cells from subcutaneous fat display vWF in distinct granular structures. Human peritoneal mesothelium produces plasminogen activator-dependent fibrinolytic activity, which is essential in the resolution of fibrous exudates and may therefore be important in preventing the formation of fibrous peritoneal adhesions. This fibrinolytic activity is plasminogen activator-dependent, but has not been fully characterized. We report here that human omental tissue mesothelial cells in vitro produce large amounts of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), together with type 1 and 2 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1 and PAI-2). PAI-1 is predominantly secreted into the culture medium, whereas the major part of PAI-2 is found in the cells. No urokinase-type plasminogen activator is detected. On stimulation with the inflammatory mediator tumor necrosis factor (TNF), at least a threefold decrease in t-PA antigen is observed, together with an increase in both PAI-1 and PAI-2. TNF also induces a marked change in cell shape. Whereas TNF and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) have similar effects on the production of PA inhibitor by human endothelial cells, LPS has no or only a relatively small effect on the fibrinolytic properties of mesothelial cells. The decreased fibrinolytic activity induced by the cytokine TNF may impair the natural dissolution of fibrin deposits at the peritoneum in the presence of an inflammatory reaction. 相似文献

Thrombin and plasmin generation in patients with liver disease 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
H Takahashi W Tatewaki K Wada A Yoshikawa A Shibata 《American journal of hematology》1989,32(1):30-35
Patients with liver disease frequently have multiple hemostatic abnormalities. Coagulation and fibrinolytic factors and inhibitors may decrease as the result of impaired synthesis and/or enhanced catabolism. In order to assess the actual degree of activation of coagulation and fibrinolytic systems in liver disease, plasma levels of thrombin-antithrombin III complex (TAT) and plasmin-alpha 2-antiplasmin complex (PAP) were measured together with cross-linked fibrin derivatives (XDP), tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) in 31 patients with liver disease (five patients with acute hepatitis, seven with chronic hepatitis, nine with liver cirrhosis, and ten with hepatocellular carcinoma). Mean plasma levels of TAT (mean 4.2 +/- SD 4.0 micrograms/L), PAP (0.7 +/- 0.7 mg/L), and XDP (374 +/- 518 micrograms/L) were significantly elevated in patients with liver disease as compared with normal subjects (TAT of 1.7 +/- 0.3 micrograms/L, PAP of 0.2 +/- 0.1 mg/L, and XDP of 30 +/- 14 micrograms/L; P less than 0.005). Plasma concentrations of t-PA and PAI-1 antigens were also elevated. When plotted by the disease categories, the magnitude of elevations of these parameters was variable among subgroups. Patients with acute hepatitis had considerably higher TAT levels. The mean PAP values were relatively high in chronic hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma, in which an elevation of the t-PA/PAI-1 ratio was observed. Although clearance of TAT and PAP should be evaluated in the future, these findings suggest that excessive amounts of thrombin and plasmin are actually generated in patients with liver disease. 相似文献

Impaired placental development is a well-known pathogenesis in preeclampsia. The present study was undertaken to elucidate the involvement of fibrinolytic factors in amniotic fluid in midtrimester with development of severe early-onset preeclampsia. Amniotic fluid was obtained by amniocentesis at 15 to 18 weeks of gestation. All specimens were retrospectively identified according to the hospital records as coming from gestations that later had severe early-onset preeclampsia (severe preeclamptic group, n = 9) or gestations with normal outcomes (control group, n = 73). Fibrinolytic factors such as tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1), and t-PA-PAI-1 complex (PAI-C) of specimens were measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay. In the control group, concentrations of t-PA as well as PAI-1 in amniotic fluid remained at similar levels from 15 to 18 weeks, although PAI-1 levels were more than 10 times higher compared with t-PA levels. Levels of t-PA and PAI-1 in the severe preeclamptic group were not different from those of the control group. PAI-C levels gradually decreased from 15 through 18 weeks of gestation in the control group. PAI-C levels of the severe preeclamptic group were significantly lower than those of the control group (55.5 +/- 18.0% versus control; mean +/- standard deviation [SD], p <0.001). PAI-C, as the most specific indicator of the early stage of fibrinolytic activities, showed lower levels in midtrimester amniotic fluid in the severe preeclamptic group, suggesting fibrinolytic activities of amniotic fluid may have a significant role in the development of severe early-onset preeclampsia via impaired placental development in the latent stage of preeclampsia. 相似文献

BACKGROUND. Although isolated abnormalities of plasminogen activation and inhibition have been reported among selected patients with venous thrombosis, it is unclear whether these deficiencies of fibrinolysis are important risk factors for thromboembolic disease. METHODS AND RESULTS. To evaluate whether baseline levels of endogenous tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) predict the future occurrence of venous thrombosis, levels of these proteins were measured in prospectively collected plasma samples from 55 participants in the Physicians' Health Study who later developed deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism and from an equal number of age- and smoking-matched control subjects who remained free of vascular disease during a mean follow-up period of 60.2 months. Overall, there were no statistically significant differences between case patients and control subjects in baseline levels of PAI-1 (50.5 versus 59.5 ng/ml, p = 0.26), t-PA (13.4 versus 13.3 ng/ml, p = 0.94), or PAI-1:t-PA ratio (6.84 versus 6.58, p = 0.82). No evidence of a threshold effect or trend was seen when these data were analyzed by increasing quartiles of PAI-1 (p = 0.73), t-PA (p = 0.62), or PAI-1:t-PA ratio (p = 0.93). These results were unchanged after multivariate analysis that simultaneously controlled for other baseline cardiovascular risk factors. CONCLUSIONS. In contrast to previous uncontrolled case series and smaller retrospective studies, these prospective data provide strong evidence that baseline fibrinolytic state, as measured by t-PA and PAI-1, does not predict the occurrence of future venous thrombosis. 相似文献

Diurnal variation of tissue-type plasminogen activator and its rapid inhibitor (PAI-1) 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
Previous studies have shown that overall fibrinolytic activity in blood follows a diurnal rhythm with a peak in the morning and a trough in the evening. The purpose of this study was to determine which fibrinolytic factor(s) was responsible for this diurnal rhythm. Resting and postvenous occlusion tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) activity, resting t-PA antigen, and resting plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) activity were measured in the morning and evening in 33 healthy men (mean age, 31 years) and in 15 patients (mean age, 57 years) with previous myocardial infarction or unstable angina. PAI-1 activity and t-PA antigen were significantly higher (p less than 0.01) in the morning compared with the evening in controls and patients. In contrast, resting t-PA activity was significantly lower in the morning (p less than 0.01) in both groups and was inversely correlated with PAI-1 activity (r = -0.57, p less than 0.0001). Postvenous occlusion t-PA activity and t-PA capacity were not significantly different between morning and evening in either group. Because t-PA antigen levels and PAI-1 activity were highest in the morning, the variation in t-PA activity was probably not due to decreased secretion of t-PA but instead to changes in the secretion of PAI-1. Our findings indicate that diurnal variations in PAI-1 activity may reduce fibrinolytic activity in the morning in healthy individuals and in patients with coronary artery disease. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Nicorandil is a hybrid-type anti-anginal drug that combines a K(ATP) channel opener and a nitric oxide donor. Recently the IONA study reported that nicorandil improves the prognosis of patients with stable angina pectoris. METHODS AND RESULTS: To examine the effects of nicorandil on endogenous fibrinolysis, plasma concentrations of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) antigen, type-1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) antigen and PAI activity were measured in consecutive 11 patients (7 men and 4 women, mean age 63 years, ranges 41-84 years) with coronary artery disease. Nicorandil (15 mg/day) was administered orally to each patient for 2 weeks. Venous blood samples were obtained from each patient before and after the administration of the drug in the early morning before eating. There were no significant changes in the plasma concentrations of t-PA (12.4+/-1.9 to 9.8+/-1.5) or PAI-1 (26.3+/-3.9 to 21.5+/-4.9) antigens (ng/ml, mean +/- SEM) before and after nicorandil administration. On the other hand, the plasma activity of PAI (IU/ml, mean +/- SEM) decreased significantly after the treatment (12.9+/-3.2 to 5.6+/-1.9, p=0.039). CONCLUSIONS: It is well known that PAI activity determines the whole fibrinolytic capacity and oral administration of nicorandil decreased PAI activity in patients with coronary artery disease. This finding suggests that nicorandil improves the fibrinolytic capacity and may reduce the risk of coronary thrombus formation in such patients. 相似文献

Acute systemic inflammation enhances endothelium-dependent tissue plasminogen activator release in men 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to investigate in vivo the effects of acute systemic inflammation on the endogenous fibrinolytic capacity in men. BACKGROUND: Systemic inflammation and endogenous fibrinolysis play a major role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease. Although previous studies have shown impaired endothelium-dependent vasomotor function, the effects of inflammation on the endothelial release of the fibrinolytic factor tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) are unknown. METHODS: In a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled crossover trial, we administered a mild inflammatory stimulus, Salmonella typhi vaccine, or saline placebo to eight healthy men on two separate occasions. Six hours after vaccination, blood flow and plasma fibrinolytic variables were measured in both arms during intrabrachial infusions of bradykinin (40 to 1,000 pmol/min), acetylcholine (5 to 20 microg/min), and sodium nitroprusside (2 to 8 microg/min). RESULTS: Compared with placebo, the S. typhi vaccination caused a rise in white cell count (11.1 +/- 0.5 x10(9)/l vs. 7.9 +/- 0.8 x10(9)/l; p = 0.004) and plasma interleukin-6 concentrations (6.9 +/- 1.4 pg/ml vs. 1.6 +/- 0.4 pg/ml; p = 0.01) in addition to a significant augmentation of t-PA antigen (45 +/- 9 ng/100 ml/min at peak dose vs. 24 +/- 8 ng/100 ml/min at peak dose; p = 0.016, analysis of variance) and activity (104 +/- 15 IU/100 ml/min vs. 54 +/- 12 IU/100 ml/min; p = 0.006, analysis of variance) release during bradykinin infusion. Forearm blood flow increased in a dose-dependent manner after bradykinin, acetylcholine and sodium nitroprusside infusions (p < 0.001), but this was unaffected by vaccination. CONCLUSIONS: Our results showed that acute systemic inflammation augmented local forearm t-PA release in men, which suggests that acute inflammation may invoke a protective response by enhancing the acute endogenous fibrinolytic capacity in healthy men. Further studies are needed to clarify whether this response is impaired in patients with cardiovascular disease. 相似文献
