- Background The endothelial ADP receptor P2Y(1) is responsible for a large part of the reactive hyperemia following cardiac ischemia. Tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) increases during reactive hyperemia. We postulated that the release of t-PA during reactive hyperemia could be mitigated through blocking the coronary endothelial P2Y(1) receptor. Methods t-PA was measured in peripheral arterial blood and locally in the venous blood from the coronary sinus in a porcine model. The stable ADP analogue 2-MeSADP (10(-5) M), alone or as co-infusion with a selective P2Y(1) receptor blocker, MRS2179 (10(-3) M) was locally delivered in the left anterior descending artery through the tip of a coronary angioplasty balloon. In separate pigs the coronary artery was occluded with the balloon for 10 min. During the first and tenth minute of coronary ischemia, 2.5 ml of MRS2179 (10(-3) M) was delivered distal to the occlusion in 8 pigs, 10 pigs were used as controls. Results 2-MeSADP increased levels of t-PA in the coronary sinus, which could be significantly inhibited by co-infusion with MRS2179. During cardiac ischemia and reperfusion, t-PA increased significantly, an effect that could be significantly inhibited by MRS2179. Conclusions Intra coronary administered MRS2179, a selective P2Y(1) receptor blocker, significantly reduces the increased levels of t-PA caused by both 2-MeSADP and cardiac ischemia in coronary arteries. Thus, ADP acting on the endothelial P2Y(1) receptor may mediate release of t-PA during ischemia and post-ischemic hyperemia, an effect that may counteract some of the platelet activating effects of ADP.

- Therapeutic hypothermia has been found to improve hemodynamic and metabolic parameters in cardiogenic shock. Tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) is a pro-thrombolytic enzyme, which also possesses pro-inflammatory properties. Interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) are pro-inflammatory cytokines; interleukin 10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta1) are anti-inflammatory cytokines. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the mechanism behind the protective effect of therapeutic hypothermia in cardiogenic shock. This was done by studying the effect of hypothermia on basal t-PA levels, peripheral t-PA release, and on the inflammatory response. Cardiogenic shock was induced by inflation of an angioplasty balloon in the proximal left anterior descending artery for 40 min in 16 pigs, followed by 110 min of reperfusion. The animals were randomized to hypothermia (33 degrees C, n = 8), or normothermia (n = 8) at reperfusion. Hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored. Plasma was sampled every 30 min for analysis of blood-gases and t-PA, and for analysis of inflammatory markers at baseline and at the end of the experiment. t-PA, IL-6 and TGF-beta1 increased during cardiogenic shock. Apart from favourably affecting hemodynamic and metabolic variables, hypothermia was found to reduce basal arterial and venous t-PA levels, and to inhibit the release of t-PA from the peripheral vascular bed. Hypothermia did not alter the inflammatory response. In conclusion, mild hypothermia improves hemodynamic and metabolic parameters in cardiogenic shock. This is associated with a reduction in basal t-PA levels and t-PA release from the peripheral vascular bed, but not with an altered inflammatory response.

- In experimentally induced myocardial ischemia, mild hypothermia (33-35 degrees C) has a robust cardioprotective effect. Tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) is a profibrinolytic enzyme that is released from the vascular endothelial cells in response to ischemia and other injurious stimuli. t-PA has also been found to have proinflammatory properties that could contribute to reperfusion injury. We postulated that hypothermia could attenuate t-PA release in the setting of myocardial ischemia. Sixteen 25-30 kg pigs were anesthetized and a temperature of 37 degrees C was established using an intravascular cooling/warming catheter. The pigs were then randomized to hypothermia (34 degrees C) or control (37 degrees C). A doppler flow wire was placed distal to a percutaneous coronary intervention balloon positioned immediately distal to the first diagonal branch of the left anterior descending artery (LAD). The LAD was then occluded for 10 min in all pigs. Coronary blood flow and t-PA was measured before, during and after ischemia/reperfusion. t-PA was measured in peripheral arterial blood and locally in the venous blood from the coronary sinus. Net t-PA release over the coronary bed was calculated by subtraction of arterial values from coronary sinus values. An estimate of differences in total t-PA release was calculated by multiplying net t-PA release with the relative increase in flow compared to baseline, measured in relative units consisting of ((ng/ml - ng/ml) x (cm/s/cm/s)). There was no observed difference in t-PA levels in peripheral arterial samples. As shown previously, net t-PA release increased during reperfusion. Hypothermia significantly inhibited the increase in t-PA release during reperfusion (peak value 9.44 +/- 4.34 ng/ml vs. 0.79 +/- 0.45 ng/ml, P = 0.02). The effect was even more prominent when an estimation of total t-PA release was performed with mean peak value in the control group 26-fold higher than in the hypothermia group (69.74 +/- 33.86 units vs. 2.62 +/- 1.10 units, P = 0.01). Mild hypothermia markedly reduces ischemia related coronary tissue plasminogen activator release. The reduction of t-PA release may contribute to the cardioprotective effect of hypothermia.
