Abstract

We investigated the role of changes in the endogenous nitric oxide (NO) metabolism during the influence of succinic acid amides as biotransformation products of an anti-diabetic drug on the state of hemostasis. In experiment with rats, synthetic succinamides were applied in quanti- ties equimolar to the sub-toxic dose of the pharmaceutical substance. We investigated the indicators characterizing the state of platelet and coagulation hemostasis in the blood plasma, the content of the stable NO metabolites and the activity of nitrogen oxide synthase (NOS) in the liver homogenate, blood plasma and urine of rats. We found that sub-chronic succinamides introduction reduced the nitrite and nitrate anions concentration in the blood plasma (by 30-50 and 20-35% resp.), liver (by 16-19 and 14-18%) and urine (by 50-70 and 38-55%). These changes were essentially dependent on the reduction in the NOS activity (by 33%). The studied compounds showed a 1.5 fold increase in the coagulation potential of the blood plasma and cause a 20% boost in the aggregation of thrombocytes. Analysis of the pair correlation coefficients showed positive association of the changes in indicators of the NO metabolism and hemostasis. The obtained results suggest th...Continue Reading

Blood Coagulation Signaling Pathways

Coagulation is the process by which a blood clot is formed. This process includes both the formation of a platelet plug as well as a cascade of clotting factors resulting in the formation of fibrin strands. Find the latest research on coagulation signaling pathways here.

Antiparasitics

Antiparasitics are medications which are indicated for the treatment of parasitic diseases. Discover the latest research on antiparasitics here.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
