Effect of PGI2 and thromboxane antagonist on liver ischemic injury.
Thromboxane, prostacyclin and their ratio could play an important role in the ischemic liver injury. To study this hypothesis, thromboxane and prostacyclin were measured by RIA after incubation of liver tissues removed during and after an ischemia of 90 min in male Wistar rats. The thromboxane to prostacyclin ratio increases during this period. In order to examine if this change could influence the survival rate of animals submitted to the same period of ischemia, drugs able to reduce the relative predominance of thromboxane were infused. The survival rate was not modified by administration of Iloprost or Daltroban, the antagonist of the thromboxane receptors. By contrast, imidazole, an inhibitor of thromboxane synthetase, significantly increased the survival rate. The same result was obtained with the administration of Daltroban plus Iloprost, suggesting that the reduction of thromboxane action associated with the increase of PGI2 level reduces the ischemic injury.

Role of eicosanoids in the kappa-carrageenin rat tail thrombosis.
Pretreatment of rats by the cyclooxygenase inhibitors diclofenac, phenylbutazone, and aminophenazone did not influence kappa-carrageenin (KC) rat tail thrombosis (RTT) whereas pretreatment by aspirin, at high doses, and particularly sulfinpyrazone decreased RTT frequency, PGI2 or iloprost i.v. injection showed strong RTT preventing effects as it was also seen by thromboxane synthesis inhibitors (benzydamine, imidazole) at high doses. The PAF antagonist BN 52020 weakly protected. Lipoxygenase inhibitors (quercetin, oxphaman a.o.) proved ineffective. Therefore, thromboxane/PGI2 balance and partly PAF seem to be involved in the mechanism of KC RTT.
