    Abstract:
    In this study we compared the antithrombotic and anticoagulant properties of sodium and calcium derivatives of pentosan polysulfate (Na-PPS, Ca-PPS), unfractionated heparin (UFH), and low-molecular-weight heparin (Fraxiparin). The antithrombotic effects of these agents have been investigated in an experimental thrombosis model in which rat mesenteric venules with a diameter of 20-30 microm were injured by well-defined argon laser lesions. Furthermore, the in vivo and in vitro anticoagulant activities [activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), Heptest] of these agents have been studied. Thrombus formation was significantly inhibited after s.c. injection of Na-PPS and Ca-PPS in doses >10 mg/kg. The duration of the antithrombotic effect lasted 8 h for Na-PPS and 12 h for Ca-PPS. After oral administration of Na-PPS, an antithrombotic effect was not observed. Oral application of Ca-PPS in doses >20 mg/kg significantly inhibited thrombus formation. Na-PPS and Ca-PPS markedly prolonged clotting time in aPTT and Heptest in concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 0.2 mg/ml rat PTT. Two h after s.c. administration of these agents in a dose of 10 mg/kg, the aPTT increased threefold and the Heptest 2.5-fold compared with controls. After oral application of 50 mg/kg Na-PPS and Ca-PPS, no effect on the coagulation test could be measured. Intravenous injection of UFH prolonged the Heptest after 1 min and the aPTT after 30 min. In ex vivo studies of aPTT and Heptest performed in rat plasma between 2 and 24 h after s.c. injection of 0.2 mg/kg Fraxiparin, no inhibition of any coagulation test was measured. The antithrombotic effect of 0.2 mg/kg Fraxiparin after s.c. injection was significant. Intravenous injection of 20 U/kg UFH significantly inhibited thrombus formation. The smallest antithrombotic effect was after i.v. injection of UFH.
