The purpose of this study was to determine if idazoxan, an alpha 2-adrenergic antagonist, could enhance the antithrombotic activity of pelrinone, a PDE III inhibitor, in a canine model of coronary thrombosis that uses electrical current to injure the coronary endothelium. Thrombus mass in vehicle-treated animals was 37.9 +/- 8 mg. Pelrinone, 0.625 and 2.5 mg/kg decreased thrombus size by 46 and 21%, respectively, while idazoxan, 0.75 mg/kg decreased thrombus mass by 43%. When this dose of idazoxan was combined with pelrinone, 0.625 and 2.5 mg/kg, thrombus mass was decreased by 71 and 91%, respectively. Antithrombotic efficacy correlated with the ability of these treatments to inhibit epinephrine-sensitized, collagen-induced platelet aggregation. Sixty minutes following drug administration, idazoxan, 0.50 mg/kg inhibited aggregation by 50%, while pelrinone, 0.625 and 2.5 mg/kg inhibited aggregation by 55 and 68%, respectively. Combined administration of idazoxan with pelrinone, 0.625 and 2.5 mg/kg resulted in 80 and 95% inhibition of aggregation, respectively. Similar trends in inhibiting platelet aggregation to epinephrine-sensitized ADP and arachidonic acid were also observed. Experimental treatments did not affect hematocrit or circulating platelet count, although pelrinone was observed to prolong prothrombin time slightly. To examine the effect of drug-induced increases in coronary blood flow on thrombus formation, the potassium channel activator drug cromakalim was studied at a dose (0.1 mg/kg) that increased coronary blood flow by 25-35 ml/min above baseline in sham control animals. Animals treated with cromakalim showed a shorter time to coronary occlusion (103 +/- 11 min) vs. vehicle (173 +/- 24 min) and developed larger thrombi (53.7 +/- 19 mg). These results demonstrate that coronary vasodilation does not contribute to antithrombotic activity in this model. Results from the study also show that alpha-adrenergic inhibition of platelet function can potentiate phosphodiesterase inhibitor antiaggregatory and antithrombotic activity.

The phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors AY-31,390, milrinone and pelrinone (AY-28,768) were analyzed in human platelet aggregatory systems and in a rabbit arteriovenous shunt model to delineate their activity. AY-31,390 showed a remarkably potent capacity to inhibit human antithrombotic platelet aggregation. AY-31,390 inhibited arachidonic acid, U46619, collagen, epinephrine (second phase) and adenosine diphosphate (second phase) induced platelet aggregation (PA) with IC50 values of 0.18, 0.21, 0.54, 0.43 and 0.20 microM, respectively. Milrinone, although less potent than AY-31,390, inhibited PA with IC50 values of 2.1, 2.0, 5.4, 3.7 and 4.1 microM and pelrinone's IC50 values were 2.8, 6.6, 13.3, 18.6 and 11.8 microM, respectively. Platelets which were incubated with AY-31,390, milrinone or pelrinone, washed with Hanks' balanced salt solution and then resuspended in platelet poor plasma, lost their inhibitory activity in collagen and arachidonic acid PA systems. These results suggested that AY-31,390, milrinone and pelrinone did not bind tightly to cAMP PDE. If human platelet-rich plasma was pretreated with adenosine deaminase, an enzyme that degrades adenosine, the inhibitory effect of milrinone and to a lesser extent pelrinone was reversed. AY-31,390 did not produce a loss of activity with adenosine deaminase in the arachidonic acid system and only a small loss in the collagen system. Adenosine did not appear to be a meaningful factor in AY-31,390's inhibitory activity. Pelrinone, milrinone to a greater extent, and AY-31,390 to the greatest extent were effective inhibitors of white thrombus formation in the in vivo rabbit arteriovenous shunt model. These PDE III inhibitors were potent deterrants of platelet aggregation and white thrombus formation; these agents would be expected to be efficacious therapeutic antithrombotics.

The antithrombotic activity of pelrinone, a phosphodiesterase III inhibitor was examined in a canine model of coronary thrombosis that uses electrical current to injure the coronary endothelium. Ninety percent of vehicle treated animals developed complete coronary occlusion and thrombus mass was 32.0 +/- 5.8 mg. In a group of animals treated with zomepirac, 10 mg/kg i.v., included as a positive control, thrombus mass was decreased to 10.3 +/- 3.3 mg and incidence of occlusion was reduced to 37.5%. Pelrinone, 5.0 mg/kg i.v. decreased the incidence of occlusion to 50%, thrombus mass to 21.3 +/- 8.3 mg and inhibited platelet aggregation to collagen, ADP and arachidonic acid by 80%, 54% and 87% of baseline, respectively. When yohimbine, an alpha 2-adrenergic antagonist, was co-administered (2.0 mg/kg at the beginning of the experiment +0.5 mg/kg halfway through the experiment) with the same dose of pelrinone, thrombus mass was decreased to 1.0 +/- 0.5 mg and none of the animals developed coronary occlusion. Yohimbine administration by itself at 2.0-3.0 mg/kg showed no evidence of antithrombotic activity (thrombus mass = 32.8 +/- 8.0 mg, incidence of occlusion = 100%). This dose of yohimbine inhibited significantly ADP-induced aggregation in the presence of epinephrine. These results demonstrate that, even though this dose of pelrinone elicited near maximal inhibition of platelet aggregation, the concurrent administration of an alpha 2-adrenergic antagonist was able to potentiate markedly the phosphodiesterase inhibitor antithrombotic activity.
