Blockade of thromboxane and the prevention of eicosanoid-induced sudden death in mice.
    Proceedings of the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine. Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine (New York, N.Y.), 1985, Volume: 180, Issue:2

    We studied the effects of thromboxane-receptor antagonism and thromboxane synthetase inhibition in a thrombotic model of sudden death in mice. Intravenous injection of arachidonic acid (AA; 80 mg/kg) or the prostaglandin-endoperoxide analog U-46,619 (2.3 mg/kg) results in sudden death in approximately 90% of the animals. Pretreatment with the thromboxane receptor antagonist SQ-29,548 (0.3-10 mg/kg) protects dose-dependently against AA and U-46,619-induced sudden death. In contrast, CGS-13,080, a thromboxane synthetase inhibitor, shows a dose-dependent beneficial effect in AA-induced sudden death only. Although PTA2 has partial thromboxane agonistic properties in the rabbit, it protected the mice against AA-induced sudden death, thus demonstrating TxA2 antagonistic properties in this species. These data emphasize the importance of thromboxane A2 as a major mediator of arachidonic acid-induced sudden death and the effectiveness of thromboxane-receptor antagonists in endoperoxide-induced sudden death.
