Isosorbide dinitrate may enhance endothelial antithrombotic effects in vitro; leaves open clinical translation for thrombosis prevention.
Does isosorbide dinitrate and its metabolites modulate antithrombogenic endothelial cell defense in cultured bovine endothelial cells?
Absolute Event Rate: 100% vs 30%
Isosorbide dinitrate profoundly enhances the antithrombogenic properties of endothelial cells in vitro, an effect not seen with its mononitrate metabolites.
Berenger et al. (1987) studied this question. Isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) and metabolites vs. Control ECs / absence of drug was evaluated on Platelet aggregation inhibition. Under acute conditions, isosorbide dinitrate (5x10^-5 M) fully arrested platelet aggregation in the presence of endothelial cells, compared to 30% inhibition without endothelial cells.
