Effect of the infusion of OKY-046, a thromboxane A2 synthase inhibitor, on urinary metabolites of prostacyclin and thromboxane A2 in healthy human subjects.
    Thrombosis and haemostasis, 1993, Mar-01, Volume: 69, Issue:3

    The influence of OKY-046, a selective thromboxane synthase inhibitor, on prostanoid formation in healthy human subjects was studied. Vehicle (5% glucose solution) or OKY-046 in 5% glucose solution at 15 micrograms kg-1 min-1 was intravenously administered to five male healthy volunteers for 6 h. Platelet aggregation and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) formation induced by collagen and arachidonic acid were suppressed by the infusion of OKY-046, while both were not affected by the infusion of vehicle. Urinary excretion of 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2, one of major urinary metabolites of thromboxane A2 (TXA2) was decreased by the infusion of OKY-046, while that of 2,3-dinor-6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha, one of major urinary metabolites of prostacyclin (PGI2) was increased. The present study demonstrated that the infusion of OKY-046 improved the balance of TXA2/PGI2 into antithrombotic state in healthy subjects. It was also suggested that endogenously produced (probably platelet-derived) endoperoxides could be redirected into prostacyclin in vivo.
