Beneficial effect of OKY-046, a selective thromboxane A2 synthetase inhibitor, on experimental cerebral vasospasm.
Effects of OKY-046, a selective inhibitor of thromboxane (TX)A2 synthetase and a platelet aggregation inhibitor, on in vitro and in vivo models of cerebral vasospasm were studied. The contraction of the isolated rabbit basilar artery by an exposure to 1.0 ml of whole rabbit blood plus 0.05 or 0.1 units/ml of thrombin was diminished by the treatment with 10(-4) M of OKY-046 and/or 10(-6) M of ci...
متن کاملEffect of selective inhibitor of thromboxane A2 synthetase on experimental cerebral vasospasm.
Experimental cerebral vasospasm was induced in the canine basilar artery by an intracisternal injection of fresh autogenous arterial blood. Delayed vasospasm was defined as a reduction to less than 75% of the caliber of control basilar artery 5 days after the intracisternal blood injection. A selective inhibitor of thromboxane A2 synthetase, sodium(E)-3-[4-(3-pyridylmethyl) phenyl]-2-methyl-2-p...
متن کاملEffect of thromboxane A2 synthetase inhibitor, OKY-046, on sputum in chronic bronchitis and diffuse panbronchiolitis.
The mechanisms of excessive sputum production are only partially understood. We speculated that a selective thromboxane (Tx) A2 synthetase inhibitor, OKY-046, now used in the treatment of asthma in Japan, could decrease excess sputum production in patients with chronic airways disease. To test this hypothesis, we carried out a double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the effects of OKY-046, ad...
متن کاملProstacyclin and thromboxane in cerebral vasospasm II: Effects of thromboxane synthetase inhibitor (OKY-1581) on experimentally-induced cerebral vasospasm.
OKY-1581, a thromboxane A2 (TXA2) synthetase inhibitor, was administered to cats with normal and constricted basilar arteries. At a dose of 60mg/kg (i.v.), both normal and constricted vessels dilated, and the mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) fell from 55 to 75 mmHg. If MABP remained constant, vessel diameter did not change. Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) was simulated by intracisternal inject...
متن کاملInhibitory effect of a selective thromboxane synthetase inhibitor, OKY-046, on acetaldehyde-induced bronchoconstriction in asthmatic patients.
We recently reported that inhaled acetaldehyde causes bronchoconstriction indirectly via histamine release in patients with asthma. The purpose of this study was to investigate a role of thromboxane A2 in acetaldehyde-induced bronchoconstriction in asthmatic airways. We investigated the bronchial response to inhalation of ascending doses (5, 10, 20, and 40 mg/ml) of acetaldehyde in nine asthmat...
