Endothelium-independent vasorelaxation by ticlopidine and clopidogrel in rat caudal artery

Abstract: The data suggest that ticlopidine and clopidogrel cause relaxation of arterial tissues and influence vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation directly without hepatic biotransformation. Furthermore, the arterial relaxation induced in vitro by thienopyridines is endothelium independent, and β-adrenergic and P2 receptors are not involved.

“…Use of elinogrel, a novel reversible P2Y12 antagonist, did not affect vasoconstriction stimulated by α,β-metATP and was associated with less bleeding (19). Similar results were obtained when the impact of clopidogrel on a rat caudal artery was researched (20). Even though, this pro-drug requires hepatic activation, thus having no ADP-antagonist activity in vitro, it caused relaxation of arterial tissues and had an impact on vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation.…”

“…Inflammatory processes, endothelial function, vascular tone, adenosine plasma levels and cardioprotection were reported to be affected by P2Y12 blockers (12,(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36). These off-target actions can be beneficial, but might also be associated with adverse side effects.…”

“…Similarly, clopidogrel caused relaxation of arterial tissues and influenced VSMC proliferation directly without hepatic biotransformation in vitro . The effect was independent of endothelium, β‐adrenoceptor and purinergic P2 receptors (Froldi et al, ).…”

“…[22] Clopidogrel has been reported to exhibit vasomodulatory activity [23] and direct endothelial effects independent from antiplatelet actions, [24] which are still not fully understood. Recently, Froldi et al [25] reported that the clopidogrel pretreatment of rats resulted in only a slight decrement of the constriction response of the aortic tissues to phenylephrine in vitro. In the present study, ) concentration in the clopidogrel group was observed to be reduced in comparison with the response in the control group, there was no significant difference in the responses between the two groups for increased ACh concentrations.…”
