Effects of the "vascular factor" on platelet and vascular arachidonic acid metabolism in man. 1985

D Conte, and F Romanelli, and M Nordio, and M Baldacci, and A Isidori

The effects of a drug with hemostatic action, "Vascular Factor" (V.F.), on platelet and vascular arachidonic acid metabolism were evaluated in man to establish the lack of side effects on platelet aggregation. Plasma levels of 6-keto PGF1 alpha and thromboxane B2 were determined by RIA in healthy volunteers undergoing treatment with V.F. Results indicate that basal values obtained in these compounds do not present significant variations following treatment with V.F. On the basis of these results, the possibility of administering this drug in atherosclerotic patients is further confirmed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D011464 Epoprostenol A prostaglandin that is a powerful vasodilator and inhibits platelet aggregation. It is biosynthesized enzymatically from PROSTAGLANDIN ENDOPEROXIDES in human vascular tissue. The sodium salt has been also used to treat primary pulmonary hypertension (HYPERTENSION, PULMONARY).
