On the basis of indirect pharmacological evidence, picotamide, a methoxy derivative of 4-hydroxy-isophthalic acid (N,N'bis(3-picolyl)-4-methoxy-isophthalamide) has been postulated to inhibit platelet aggregation by competitively interfering with the thromboxane A2 (TxA2) platelet receptor. In the present study the interaction between picotamide

Two currently available edible oils-olive and canola-and two oil blends of plant origin having different n-3/n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) ratios were evaluated for their ability to modify vascular dysfunction in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). Synthetic diets supplemented with

Picotamide is an antiplatelet agent given by mouth as monohydrate (PICOW) (Plactidil) in thrombo-embolic disorders. This study deals with physical characterization of PICOW recrystallized from various solvents and the respective dehydration products using X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR)

Picotamide both inhibits thromboxane synthetase and acts as a thromboxane antagonist at the receptor level. We investigated the long-term effect of picotamide on urinary albumin excretion (UAE) at rest and induced by exercise in 30 type 2 diabetic patients who

We evaluated the capacity of anti-aggregating agents to influence thromboxane A(2) and prostacyclin formation, arachidonic acid-endoperoxide redirection, platelet aggregation and vessel tone, in isolated rabbit aorta incubated with homologous platelets. Picotamide (N,N'bis(3-pyridinylmethyl)-4-methoxy-isophthalamide), the only dual thromboxane A(2)-synthase inhibitor/receptor antagonist in
