PGE1 and Other Prostaglandins in the Treatment of Intermittent Claudication: A Meta-analysis

Abstract: In intermittent claudication, pharmacologic drugs and invasive measures are indicated in patients who do not benefit from exercise training. To evaluate the therapeutic role of prostaglandins (PGs), especially of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), for this indication, the author performed a meta-analysis of all published prospective, randomized, controlled clinical studies in which descriptive sample statistics of the pain-free walking distance (PFWD) and the maximum walking distance (MWD) were available. In total, 9 st… Show more

“…; Syeda et al. ), might be medicinally applicable for conditions in which exogenous prostaglandins are currently used, such as glaucoma (Stjernschantz ), pulmonary artery hypertension (Gomberg‐Maitland and Olschewski ), and vascular insufficiency (Amendt ). Because we found that the PGT inhibitor T26A increased autocrine/paracrine signaling through EP 1 and EP 4 receptors only in the presence of PGT, it appears that T26A does not interact directly with these two PGE 2 receptors.…”

“…In the same way that inhibitors of neurotransmitter reuptake have been useful in the management of psychiatric diseases (Mann 2005), inhibitors of prostaglandin reuptake, by raising endogenous PG levels (Chi et al 2011;Syeda et al 2012), might be medicinally applicable for conditions in which exogenous prostaglandins are currently used, such as glaucoma (Stjernschantz 2004), pulmonary artery hypertension (Gomberg-Maitland and Olschewski 2008), and vascular insufficiency (Amendt 2005). Because we found that the PGT inhibitor T26A increased autocrine/paracrine signaling through EP 1 and EP 4 receptors only in the presence of PGT, it appears that T26A does not interact directly with these two PGE 2 receptors.…”

“…However the influence of prostaglandins is up till today and a debatable topic in their use for PAD treatment [17][18][19][20]. It has been established clinically that the use of prostaglandin reduces claudication, add to life quality and enhances ability to walk [19].…”

“…Ist eine interventionelle oder operative Therapie aus welchen Gründen auch immer nicht möglich, so kann eine Therapie mit i. v.-applizierten vasodilatorischen Prostaglandinen erwogen werden. Obwohl nur etwa 50 % auf die Therapie ansprechen, zeigte sich in einer Metaanalyse eine raschere Abheilung von Ulzera, eine Reduzierung des Ruheschmerzes und eine Reduktion der Amputationsrate [3].…”
