1 Hypercholesterolemia impairs endothelium-dependent relaxations to aggregating platelets in porcine iliac arteries  Kimihiro Komori, MD, Hiroaki Shimokawa, MD, Paul M. Vanhoutte, MD, PhD  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 10, Issue 3, Pages (September 1989) DOI: / (89) Copyright © 1989 Society for Vascular Surgery and International Society for Cardiovascular Surgery North American Chapter Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Tension recordings in isolated iliac arteries from a control (left) and a cholesterol-fed pig (right). Platelets were added to the organ chamber during a contraction evoked by prostaglandin F2α (2 × 10−6 mol/L) in the presence of indomethacin (10−5 mol/L) and ketanserin (10−6 mol/L). W0, Washout.

3 Fig. 2 Left, Effects of methiothepin and apyrase on platelet-induced relaxations in iliac artery rings with endothelium from control pigs. Right, Endothelium-dependent relaxations to aggregating platelets in iliac arteries from control and cholesterol-fed pigs. The relaxations were examined during a contraction evoked by prostaglandin F2α (2 × 10−6 mol/L) in the presence of indomethacin (10−5 mol/L) and ketanserin (10−6 mol/L). The asterisk denotes a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the control and cholesterol-fed pigs.

4 Fig. 3 Cumulative concentration-response curves to ADP in iliac arteries from control and cholesterol-fed pigs during a contraction evoked by prostaglandin F2α (2 × 10−6 mol/L) in the presence of indomethacin (10−5 mol/L). The effects of apyrase on ADP-induced relaxation in control vessels with the endothelium are also shown. The asterisk denotes a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the control and cholesterol-fed pigs.

5 Fig. 4 Cumulative concentration-response curves to serotonin in iliac arteries from control and cholesterol-fed pigs during a contraction evoked by prostaglandin F2α (2 × 10−6 mol/L), in the presence of ketanserin (10−6 mol/L) and indomethacin (10−5 mol/L). The effects of methiothepin on serotonin-induced relaxations in control arteries with the endothelium are also shown. The asterisk denotes a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the two groups.

6 Fig. 5 Effects of aggregating platelets (75,000/μl) in quiescent rings of iliac arteries from control and cholesterol-fed pigs, in the presence of indomethacin (10−5 mol/L). Effects of dazoxiben (10−5 mol/L), ketanserin (10−5 mol/L), and methiothepin (10−6 mol/L) on the platelet-induced contractions in rings without endothelium are also shown. The asterisk denotes a statistically significant difference between rings with and without endothelium, and the dagger shows a significant difference (p < 0.05) between arteries from control and cholesterol-fed pigs.

7 Fig. 6 Cumulative concentration-response curves to serotonin in quiescent rings of iliac arteries from control and cholesterol-fed pigs in the presence of indomethacin (10−5 mol/L). Effects of ketanserin (10−6 mol/L) on serotonin-induced contractions of rings without endothelium are also shown. The ED30 for serotonin-induced contractions in rings without endothelium averaged 6.6 ± 0.2 − log mol/L and 6.5 ± 0.2 − log mol/L (n = 6) in rings of control and cholesterol-fed pigs, respectively (not significantly different). The asterisk denotes a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between rings with and without endothelium, and the dagger shows a significant difference (p < 0.05) between arteries from control and cholesterol-fed pigs.
