ABSTRACT

Procedures using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and aortic cross-clamping are associated with a variable degree of ischemia/reperfusion of the lungs, leading to acute pulmonary hypertension (PHT). The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of the sildenafil analog (UK343-664), a phosphodiesterase type V(PDEV) inhibitor, with milrinone, a PDE type III inhibitor, in a porcine model of acute PHT following CPB. After the pigs were anesthetized, pressure-tipped catheters were placed in the right ventricle and carotid and pulmonary arteries. Cardiac output was measured with an ultrasound probe on the ascending aorta. After heparinization and placement of aortic and right atrial cannulae, non-pulsatile CPB was instituted and cardioplegia administered following aortic cross-clamping. After 30 minutes, the clamp was removed and the animals re-warmed and separated from CPB in sinus rhythm. The animals were randomized to 3 groups, and 16 animals were studied to completion: milrinone (n=5) 50 microg/kg; sildenafil-analog (n=5) 500 microg/kg; and normal saline (NS) (n=6). Hemodynamic data were collected at baseline pre-CPB and, following termination of CPB, at baseline, 5, 10 and 30 minutes after administration of the drug. Pulmonary hypertension was present in all groups following CPB. After administration of the drugs, mean pulmonary artery pressure decreased in all 3 groups; however, only in the sildenafil-analog group did pulmonary vascular resistance(PVR) decrease by 35%, from 820 to 433 dynes . cm . sec(-5) at 5 minutes (p<0.05), and continued to be decreased at 10 minutes by 26% (P<0.05). Pulmonary selectivity was demonstrated with sildenafil-analog, because there were no similar changes in systemic vascular resistance(SVR) and no significant changes in systemic hemodynamics. Sildenafil-analog, a PDEV inhibitor, shows a promising role for managing the PVR increases that occur following CPB.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: We examined effects of phosphodiesterase type III inhibition on regional myocardial metabolism and global left ventricular function, during ischemia, in the presence of beta-blockade. METHODS: Twenty-three pigs were randomized and studied to completion in four groups: C, did not receive drugs; M, received 50 microg/kg milrinone; E, received esmolol (150 microg/kg/min); E+M, received both. The left anterior descending artery (LADa) was then occluded for 15 min, followed by a 60-min reperfusion. Left ventricular (LV) function data obtained included LV pressures, cardiac output (CO), slope of end-systolic pressure-volume relationship (Emax), and dP/dT. Blood lactate concentrations were obtained from the aorta, LADa, and vein at baseline, end of occlusion, and during early (5 min) and late (1 h) reperfusion. RESULTS: During ischemia, occlusion produced significant depression in LV dP/dT, Emax and concomitant elevation of LVEDP that persisted over early reperfusion in groups not treated with milrinone. After ischemia, measurements of CO were higher, with lower LVEDP and SVR; LV dP/dT and the Emax were higher, with lower LVEDP in the E+M group vs. the E group. Ischemic region lactate extraction during ischemia was better with E group vs. C group. Esmolol without or with milrinone was associated with nonsignificant lactate ischemic production during early reperfusion from baseline values. CONCLUSION: We demonstrated that the pre-emptive administration of milrinone before ischemia was associated with less ischemic hemodynamic effects, without worsening the ischemic metabolic process. The combination E+M diminished ischemic metabolic impairment, and preserved left ventricular function and baseline hemodynamics.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: This study examines the effects of phosphodiesterase type III (PDEIII) inhibition vs beta stimulation on global function of the left ventricle (LV) and systemic haemodynamics in a porcine model of acute coronary stenosis with beta blockade. METHODS: A total of 18 adult swine were anaesthetized. Micromanometer-tipped catheters were placed in the ascending aorta and LV. Two pairs of ultrasonic dimension transducers were placed in the subendocardium on the short axis proximal to a left anterior descending (LAD) artery occluder and the long axis of the LV. Before ischaemia, i.v. esmolol was infused to decrease baseline heart rate (HR) by approximately 25%, and all animals received an esmolol infusion (150 microg kg(-1) min(-1)). Ischaemia was produced by reducing the flow in the LAD artery by approximately 80%, from 17(4) to 3(2) ml min(-1). Animals were randomized to receive (after esmolol) one of the following: no drug, sham only (Group 1, n=6), control (C); 50 microg kg(-1) i.v. milrinone (Group 2, n=6) followed by 0.375 microg kg(-1) min(-1) (M); or incremental doses of dobutamine (Group 3, n=6) every 10 min (5, 10 and 20 microg kg(-1) min(-1)) (D). Left ventricular function data obtained included HR, arterial and LV pressures, cardiac output (CO), Emax and dP/dT. Measurements were taken during five time periods: before ischaemia (at baseline, after esmolol) and every 10 min during ischaemia (at 10, 20 and 30 min). RESULTS: The effects of beta blockade and ischaemia had a significant impact on contractility (Emax) in Group M and myocardial performance (left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, LVEDP) in all groups. Left ventricular function (Emax, CO, LVEDP and SVR) was better preserved when milrinone was added in Group M. A moderate dose of dobutamine (10 microg kg(-1) min(-1)) increased CO. Only the high dose (20 microg kg(-1) min(-1)) improved contractility (Emax), but at the expense of increased SVR. Also, LVEDP with either dose of dobutamine remained high and unchanged. CONCLUSIONS: From our limited findings, it would appear that there may, theoretically, be some benefit for using milrinone in preference to other inotropic drugs in the presence of beta blockade. Milrinone administration should be considered in patients with acute ischaemic LV dysfunction and preexisting beta blockade before using other inotropic drugs such as beta stimulants.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effects of phosphodiesterase type III and V (PDEIII and PDEV) inhibition on pulmonary and systemic haemodynamics in a porcine model of acute pulmonary hypertension. METHODS: Twenty-four adult swine were anaesthetized with 1 MAC isoflurane and mechanically ventilated with an FI(O(2)) of 100%. Micromanometer-tipped catheters were placed in the ascending aorta, pulmonary artery and right ventricle. Pulmonary flow was measured with a perivascular probe using transit time ultrasound. Pulmonary hypertension was induced with a continuous infusion of the thromboxane analogue, U46619. The animals were then randomized to four groups: Group 1 (n=6) received 50 mg of sildenafil (PDEV inhibitor) diluted in water via an orogastric tube; Group 2 (n=6) received 50 microg kg(-1) of i.v. milrinone (PDEIII inhibitor); Group 3 (n=6) received sildenafil followed by milrinone; and Group 4 (n=6) received placebo via an orogastric tube. RESULTS: Pulmonary hypertension was achieved in all animals. Calculated pulmonary vascular resistance decreased by an average of 36% after sildenafil (P<0.05), 41% after milrinone (P<0.05), and 61% with both drugs combined (P<0.05). Systemic vascular resistance decreased by 37% (P<0.05) with milrinone alone, and 36% (P<0.05) with milrinone and sildenafil combined but it was preserved in the sildenafil group. Cardiac output and right ventricular dP/dT were significantly improved after milrinone or both drugs combined, but not with sildenafil. CONCLUSION: Milrinone and sildenafil are effective pulmonary vasodilators, with independent action and additive effect. Both drugs combined achieved a better haemodynamic profile, with greater pulmonary vasodilatation and increased contractility but without additional systemic vasodilatation. The systemic haemodynamic profile (systemic vasodilation, cardiac output, right ventricular dP/dT) is improved with milrinone but not with sildenafil.

ABSTRACT

In a sample of 142 patients with positive treadmill test results, we found that African-Americans reported anginal pain during exercise at nearly twice the rate of Caucasians, and had a significantly shorter time to angina. The mechanisms for these race differences remain to be elucidated, but may include underlying physiologic responses, ethnocultural differences, psychological state, socioeconomic differences, and experimenter bias.

ABSTRACT

Increased cyclic AMP-phosphodiesterase activity in peripheral blood leukocytes is associated with the immune and inflammatory hyperreactivity that characterizes atopic dermatitis. Atopic phosphodiesterase has high sensitivity to a variety of enzyme inhibitors, suggesting an increased therapeutic advantage. The objective of this study was to use in vitro assays to identify a potent phosphodiesterase inhibitor and then to investigate its effectiveness in treating atopic dermatitis. Leukocyte enzyme activity was measured by radioenzyme assay, whereas prostaglandin E2 and interleukins 10 (IL-10) and 4 (IL-4) were measured in 24-h culture supernatants of mononuclear leukocytes by immunoassays. The effect of a topical phosphodiesterase inhibitor on atopic dermatitis lesional skin was assessed by double-blind, paired comparisons of active drug and placebo ointments applied to symmetrically involved sites over a 28-d period. Using in vitro, assays, we demonstrated the ability of selective high-potency phosphodiesterase inhibitors to reduce prostaglandin E2, IL-10, and IL-4 production in atopic mononuclear leukocyte cultures. We selected the Type 4 phosphodiesterase inhibitor, CP80,633, based on its inhibitory potency, for clinical testing by topical, bilateral paired comparisons in 20 patients with atopic dermatitis and demonstrated significant reductions of all inflammatory parameters. Phosphodiesterase inhibitors modulate several pathways contributing to the exaggerated immune and inflammatory responses, which characterize atopic dermatitis. This in vivo demonstration of anti-inflammatory efficacy may provide a useful alternative to the over-reliance on corticosteroid therapy in atopic disease.

ABSTRACT

1. This open-label study was conducted to evaluate the effects of age and gender on the pharmacokinetics of tenidap sodium in patients with either rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or osteoarthritis (OA). 2. A total of 145 male and female patients, 80 with RA (aged 22-91 years) and 65 with OA (aged 45-83 years) each received a single dose of 120 mg tenidap sodium. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated from individual tenidap plasma concentration-time curves determined up to 120 h post-dose. Tenidap plasma protein binding was determined in the youngest and oldest age groups for both RA and OA patients. 3. In RA patients, age and gender did not significantly affect the disposition of tenidap or the percentage of unbound tenidap in plasma. Only for tmax were statistically significant effects in the analysis of covariance observed and these were attributed to very high tmax values in two female patients. Likewise, in patients with OA, age and gender did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of tenidap, although patients with larger body weights had lower Cmax values. 4. Pharmacokinetic parameters were not significantly different between RA and OA patients, except for t1/2, where two outlier RA patients had low values that caused the mean value to be significantly lower in RA (24 h) than in OA (26 h) patients. Pharmacokinetic parameters for pooled values from RA and OA patients were as follows: t1/2 = 25 h, AUC = 538.4 micrograms ml-1 h, Cmax = 21.9 micrograms ml-1, tmax = 3.2 h.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

ABSTRACT

The feasibility, safety, and efficacy of myoblast transfer therapy (MIT) were assessed in an experimental lower body treatment (LBT) involving 32 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) boys aged 6-14 yr, half of whom were nonambulatory. Through 48 injections, five billion (55.6 x 10(6)/mL) normal myoblasts were transferred into 22 major muscles in both lower limbs, in 10 min with the subject under general anesthesia. Ten subjects received myoblasts cultured from satellite cells derived from 1-g fresh muscle biopsies of normal males aged 9-21 yr. Donor myoblasts for the remaining 22 boys were subcultured from reserves frozen 1 mo-1.5 yr ago. Only four donors were known to have identical histocompatibility with their recipients. All subjects took oral doses of the immunosuppressant cyclosporine (Cy), beginning at 2 days before MTT and lasting for 6 mo after MTT to facilitate donor cell survival. There was no evidence of an adverse reaction to MTT or Cy as determined by serial laboratory evaluations including electrolytes, creatinine, and urea. Objective functional tests using the KinCom Robotic Dynamometer measured the maximum isometric contractile forces of the ankle plantar flexors (AF), knee flexors (KF), and knee extensors (KE) before MTT and at 3, 6, and 9 mo after MTT. The AF, being distal muscles and less degenerative than the KE and the KF, showed no decrease in mean contractile force 3 mo after MTT, and progressive increases in force at 6 and 9 mo after MTT. At 9 mo after MTT, 60% of the 60 AF examined showed a mean increase of 50% in force; 28% showed no change; and only 12% showed a mean decrease in force of 29% when compared to the function of the same muscles before MTT. The KF, being proximal muscles and more degenerative, showed no change in function at 9 mo after MTT. The KE, being proximal and anti-gravitational, were most degenerative before MTT. They showed no statistically significant change in force at 3 mo after MTT but showed decreases at 6 and 9 mo after MTT. At 9 mo after MTT, 23% of the 60 KE examined showed a mean increase of 65% in force; 22% showed no change; and 55% showed a mean decrease of 24% in force. When results of all muscle groups (AF, KF, KE) were pooled, there was no change in force at 3, 6, or 9 mo after MTT vs. before MTT according to the Wilcoxon signed rank test.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

ABSTRACT

Four independent studies have investigated and compared the effects of tenidap sodium, naproxen and placebo on CRP in patients with active RA. One of these studies also investigated the effects of tenidap and naproxen on serum amyloid A (SAA) concentrations and ESR. The duration of the four studies ranged between 2 weeks and 24 weeks, and depending on the study, tenidap sodium was administered orally in doses of 40-120 mg/day and naproxen in doses of 1000 mg/day. In all four studies serum CRP concentrations in tenidap-treated patients had decreased significantly from baseline at the time of final assessment. The decrease in CRP concentration in tenidap-treated patients was observed as early as 1 week after initiation of therapy and was sustained for up to 6 months, the last assessment timepoint. CRP concentrations in naproxen-treated and placebo patients were essentially unchanged. The decreases from baseline observed in tenidap-treated patients were significantly greater than the changes observed in naproxen-treated or placebo patients. After 24 weeks of tenidap treatment the decrease in CRP was paralleled by significant decreases in SAA concentration and ESR. The finding that tenidap sodium rapidly, consistently and significantly lowered CRP serum concentrations differentiates tenidap sodium from the NSAID, naproxen. This could possibly have important therapeutic implications given that other long-term investigations have shown that reducing serum CRP and SAA concentrations correlates with a reduction in radiographically-assessed disease progression.

ABSTRACT

Five billion normal myoblasts were injected into each of 21 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) boys aged 6-14 yr to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of the Phase II myoblast transfer therapy (MTT). The Phase II study was designed to strengthen muscles of both lower limbs. Forty-eight intramuscular injections transferred the myoblasts into 22 major muscles at 55.6 x 10(6)/mL in 10 min under general anesthesia. Eleven boys had received 8 million myoblasts each 1 yr ago in the Phase I MTT. In the Phase II study, eight of them had their myoblasts subcultured from reserves frozen 1 yr ago. The donor myoblasts for each of the remaining boys were cultured from satellite cells derived from a 1-g muscle biopsy of a normal male who might or might not be histocompatible with the recipient. The immunosuppressant cyclosporine (Cy) is being administered to recipients for 6 mo after MTT to facilitate donor cell survival. There was no evidence of an adverse reaction to MTT or Cy as determined by serial laboratory evaluations including electrolytes, creatinine, and urea. Early objective functional tests using the KinCom Robotic Dynamometer were conducted on 13 subjects aged 6 to 13 before MTT and at 3 mo after MTT. Of the 69 muscle groups (knee extensors, knee flexors, plantar flexors) tested for isometric force generation in these subjects, 43% showed mean increase of 41.3% +/- 5.9 SEM, 38% showed no change, and 19% showed continuous force reduction of 23.4% +/- 3.1 SEM. The remaining subjects await the 3-mo post-MTT evaluation. The results indicate that 1) MTT is safe; 2) MTT increases muscle strength in DMD: 81% of the muscles tested showed either increase in strength or did not show continuous loss of strength; 3) more than 5 billion myoblasts can be cultured from 1 g normal muscle biopsy, providing unprecedented numbers of cells for MTT; 4) myoblasts, frozen over 1 yr, retain the ability to proliferate from 10 million to 5 billion, and to form normal myofibers; 5) injections of 5 billion myoblasts have not provoked any immunological rejection symptoms in the Phase II subjects, 11 of whom received 8 million myoblasts in the Phase I MTT a year ago; 6) it is safe to perform multiple injections of myoblasts into lower limb muscles without formation of emboli; and 7) donor cell rejection by the recipient can be prevented with Cy when properly managed.

ABSTRACT

A randomly selected extensor digitorum brevis (EDB) muscle in each of three Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) boys aged 9 to 10 was injected with approximately 8 x 10(6) myoblasts. The contralateral EDBs were sham-injected with carrier solution. Donor myoblasts were derived from cell culture of muscle biopsies from the normal ward or normal brothers of the recipients. Cyclosporine (CsA) treatment began two days before myoblast injection and continued for three months. Three days prior to myoblast injection and three months after, the isometric twitch and maximum voluntary contraction of the left and the right EDBs were measured. Myoblast-injected EDBs showed increases in tensions whereas sham-injected EDBs showed reductions. Both immunocytochemical staining and immunoblot revealed dystrophin in the myoblast-injected EDBs. Dystrophic characteristics such as fiber splitting, central nucleation, phagocytic necrosis, variation in fiber shape and size, and infiltration of fat and connective tissues were less frequently observed in these muscles. Sham-injected EDBs exhibited significant structural and functional degeneration and no dystrophin. Throughout the study, there was no sign of erythema, swelling or tenderness at the injection sites. Serial laboratory evaluation including electrolytes, creatinine, and urea did not reveal any significant changes before or after myoblast transfer. We conclude that myoblast transfer therapy is a safe and efficacious procedure to improve the biochemistry, structure, and function of degenerative EDB muscles in DMD.
