In this study we sought to extend the plasma half-life while maintaining the potent antithrombin activity of hirudin. We hypothesized that gene fusion of hirudin to albumin would result in the expression of a slowly cleared hirudin molecule. A hirudin variant 3 (HV3) cDNA was obtained by gene synthesis, while a 1,996-bp full-length rabbit serum albumin (RSA) cDNA was selected from a rabbit live...
BACKGROUND We evaluated the effects of a novel platelet fibrinogen receptor antagonist, Integrelin, and a direct thrombin inhibitor, recombinant hirudin, given together with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rTPA) in a canine experimental model of intracoronary thrombosis. We tested the hypothesis that combination of both agents at low doses would have an additive antithrombotic effect,...
Background. Platelet-thrombus formation is a complication of arterial wall deep injury by balloon angioplasty that may lead to acute arterial occlusion and may contribute to restenosis. Methods and Results. Because common platelet-inhibitor drugs with a heparin bolus (100 units/kg) may be effective in inhibiting platelet-thrombus formation after arterial angioplasty, these were compared with a ...
We have described the methods used in determining the influence of certain substances on tumor growth, and we measured approximately the degree of reliability of the quantitative method used. We examined with these methods various classes of substances,- distilled water, a number of inorganic salts, inorganic colloidal substances, various organic colloidal and non-colloidal substances, especial...
To evaluate the effect of thrombin on the dynamics of thrombolysis, we infused rabbits with heparin or hirudin alone or in conjunction with tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and monitored the kinetics of fibrinolysis and changes in ex vivo platelet aggregation responses over time. Both heparin and hirudin enhanced total fibrinolysis in an ex vivo arteriovenous shunt preparation: 82 +/- 2...
T hrough evolution, several animal species have been endowed with salivary anticoagulants, presumably to secure their nutritional requirements for fluid blood from their prey. It has been known for centuries that the bites of leeches, certain snakes, insects, and vampire bats can result in local and systemic bleeding. The use of the medicinal leech, Hirudo medicinalis, for therapeutic bloodlett...
BACKGROUND Arterial injury after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) triggers acute thrombus formation and thrombin generation. Hirudin, a potent and direct thrombin inhibitor, prevents thrombus formation after arterial injury. Two large clinical trials showed marked reduction in acute clinical events but no long-term benefits in reducing restenosis during short-term administr...

BACKGROUND Heparin and direct thrombin inhibitors, such as hirudin, have limitations in the treatment of acute coronary syndromes. Heparin does not inactivate fibrin-bound thrombin, whereas hirudin fails to block thrombin generation. In contrast, Vasoflux is a novel anticoagulant that inactivates fibrin-bound thrombin and attenuates factor Xa generation. METHODS AND RESULTS Vasoflux is prepar...
The interaction of alpha-thrombin with Ala48-hirudin, Ala48-hirudin1-47, and Ala48-hirudin48-65 was analyzed. Mutations at Pro48 were found to cause only slight changes in the kon (human: 3.1 +/- 0.3 x 10(8) M-1 s-1; bovine: 1.03 +/- 0.3 x 10(8) M-1 s-1) and koff (human: 0.4 +/- 0.2 x 10(-3) s-1; bovine: 2.9 +/- 0.4 x 10(-3) s-1) rate constants for the formation of the thrombin-hirudin complex....
