vascular prostacyclin and platelet thromboxane production in patients with atherosclerosis
The relationship between the antithrombotic and antiplatelet effects of aspirin is complex, since aspirin influences other systems that protect against thrombosis as well as inhibiting platelet function. We investigated possible cumulative effects of low-dose aspirin on vascular production of prostacyclin in patients with documented atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Candidates for coronar...
متن کاملProstacyclin and vascular disease
We hypothesize tha t prostacyclin (PG I2) is an anti-atherosclerotic hormone and that atherosclerosis develops when endothelial P G I2 synthetase is inhibited by lipid peroxides. Serum lipid peroxides occur in low-density lipoproteins (LDL). LDL lipid peroxides are elevated in common types of hyperlipoproteinaemias, P G I2 generation is im paired in atherosclerosis, and infusion of synthetic P ...

متن کاملInterferon enhances prostacyclin production by cultured vascular endothelial cells.
The effects of interferon (IFN) on the arachidonate metabolism and physiological functions of cultured endothelial cells and blood platelets have been examined. Cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells were found to be sensitive to the antiviral and antiproliferative activities of human leukocyte (alpha) IFN and to increase their capacity to synthesize prostacyclin (PGI2) upon exposure to IFN. ...
متن کاملInhibition of Vascular Endothelial Cell Prostacyclin Synthesis
Vascular endothelial cells (EC) play an active role in the synthesis and assembly of components of the fibrinolytic system and the generation of the major fibrinolytic protease plasmin. However, the reciprocal effects of plasmin on EC function have not been previously examined. We have studied the actions of plasmin on the production of prostacyclin (PGI2) by cultured human umbilical vein (HUVE...
