Popis: | The effects of cilostamide, a cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) selective inhibitor, on vascular intimal hyperplasia were evaluated using a single-balloon injury model and a double-injury model in which the rat common carotid artery was subjected to a second injury at a site injured 14 days previously. In the double-injury model, the second balloon injury caused more severe intimal hyperplasia (intima/media (IM) ratio, 1.88+/-0.10) than in the single-injury model (1.09+/-0.08). Histopathological study revealed that vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) were the predominant cell-type in the affected neointimal area. Oral administration of cilostamide for 2 weeks after the second injury suppressed intimal hyperplasia in the double-injury model (30 mg kg(-1) bid, 83% inhibition in terms of the IM ratio, P |
