급성심근경색증 환자에서 약물 용출 스텐트(drug-eluting stents, DES)는 일반 금속 스텐트(bare-metal stents, BMS)에 비해 재협착은 감소하지만 구조적인 특성으로 스텐트 혈전증(stent thrombosis, ST)이 증가한다고 알려져 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 ST의 발생빈도, 임상양상, 그리고 1년간 예후를 알아보고자 하였다. 대학병원 심혈관센터에서 급성심근경색증으로 관상동맥 중재술을 받은 2,667명에서 스텐트 혈전증이 발생한 환자 80명을 대상으로 DES-ST를 I군(n=57), BMS-ST(n=23)를 II군으로 분류하여 양군 간의 특징을 분석하였다. 양군간의 ST는 I군에서 57명(2.7%)과 II군에서 23명(4.3%)로 양군 간에 유의한 차이는 없었다(p>0.064). ST의 유형으로는 acute ST는 I군5(8.8%), II군3(2.3%), subacute ST는 I군 29(50.9%), II군14(60.9%), late ST 는 I군11(19.3%), II군2(8.7%), very late ST는 I군12(21.1%), II군 4(17.4%)로 양군간의 차이는 없었다(p>0.605). DES와 BMS를 삽입 후 1년 예후에 미치는 인자로는 ST(OR 8.166 95% CI 2.825-23.608 p<0.001), 좌심실구혈율(<40) (OR 6.409 95% CI 2.422-16.955 p<0.001), 나이(${\geq}$75세) (OR 4.979 95% CI 1.946-12.744 p=0.001) 이었다. ST의 발생율은 양군 사이에 차이가 없었고, 1년 예후에 미치는 인자로는 ST의 발생, 좌심실 구혈률의 저하 및 환자의 연령 등 이었다.

Restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) continues to be a serious problem in clinical cardiology. To solve this problem, drug eluting stents (DES) with antiproliferative agents have been developed. Variable local drug delivery systems in the context of stenting require the development of stent manufacture, drug pharmacology and coating technology. We have worked on a system that integrates electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technology with the polymeric nanoparticles in DES for local drug delivery and a controlled release system. The surface morphology and drug loading amount of DES by EPD have been investigated under different operational conditions, such as operation time, voltage and the composition of media. We prepared poly-D,L-lactide-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanoparticles embedded with curcumin, which was done by a modified spontaneous emulsification method and used polyacrylic acid (PAA) as a surfactant because its carboxylic group contribute negative charge to the surface of CPNPs (?53.5 ± 5.8 mV). In the process of ‘trial and error' endeavors, we found that it is easy to control the drug loading amount deposited onto the stent while keeping uniform surface morphology. Accordingly, stent coating by EPD has a wide application to the modification of DES using various kinds of nanoparticles and drugs.

의료용 금속스텐트는 관상동맥계 심장질환을 앓고 있는 환자에 시술되어 상대적으로 생존율을 높여 준다. 그러나, 재협착 및 후기 혈전증으로 인하여 새로운 스텐트의 개발이 시급하게 되었다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 신생내막 과대증식을 막을 수 있는 것으로 알려진 alpha lipoic acid(ALA)를 생분해성 고분자인 poly(lactide-coglycolide)(PLGA), poly(L-lactide)(PLLA) 및 poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone)(PCL)과 혼합하여 전기분사 방식으로 스테인레스 스틸 표면 위에 코팅하였다. 코팅된 고분자로부터 약물방출 거동은 고분자의 종류와 농도, 용출속도 및 용매의 종류에 따라서 조사하였다. 약물방출 속도는 유리전이온도($T_g$)가 낮은 PCL에서 가장 빨랐으며 PLGA, PLLA 순서를 보였다. 고분자 표면의 거친정도는 용출속도가 증가함에 따라서 증가하였고, 용매의 비등점의 차이에 의해서 약물방출속도가 변화됨을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 약물방출 거동을 조절함으로써 ALA가 담지된 생분해성 고분자로 코팅된 약물방출 스텐트를 실제 임상적용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Dual drug-eluting stents (DES) is a primary treatment method for coronary arterial diseases in current interventional cardiology practice. However, their pathological results according to the sequence of coating of drugs have not been reported yet. The peptide-dopamine dissolved in acetonitrile was coated onto the Chonnam National University Hospital (CNUH) stent using an electrospinning coating machine. For secondary coating (e.g., sirolimus coating, designated as SPS), sirolimus (SRL) and poly lactic-glycolic acid (PLGA) were mixed in tetrahydrofuran (THF), and the solution was then coated on the CNUH stent that had underwent the primary peptide coating using an electrospinning and spray technique. Next, the peptide-dopamine was coated on the SRL-PLGA coated stent (PSS). In this study, it was confirmed that endothelialization was promoted without being significantly affected by the coating order (SPS or PSS). The sequence of drug and peptide coating may affect the development of restenosis and PSS was effective in the prevention of restenosis compared to that of using SPS.

The aim of this study was to fabricate a dextran polyelectrolyte multi-layer on a bare metal stent (BMS) and to evaluate bio-physical properties of the layer. Diethylaminoethyl-dextran (DEAE-D) as a polycation and dextran sulfate (DS) as a polyanion were successively coated on the bare metal stent by a well-known layer-by-layer procedure. The morphology of the stent surface and its cell adhesion were studied after each coating step by scanning electron microscopy. The stent showed more blotched and slightly rougher morphology after dextran-DS coating. The contact angle of the DEAE-DS group ($39.5{\pm}0.15^{\circ}$) was significantly higher than that of the BMS group ($45.16{\pm}0.08^{\circ}$), indicating the improvement of hydrophilic. The SMC proliferation inhibition in the DEAE-DS-coated stent group ($20.9{\pm}0.04%$) was stronger than that in the control group ($21.7{\pm}0.10%$ in DS-coated group only). The DEAE-DS coating is desired for stent coating materials with biocompatibility and anti-restenosis effect.

The drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation is a widely acceptable treatment for coronary heart disease. It was reported that iron chelator had anti-proliferative effect on human vascular smooth muscle cells (HA-VSMCs). In this study, tetraphenylporphine (TPP) was selected as an iron chelator and drug for DES. MTT assay showed that TPP had antiproliferative effect on HA-VSMCs. TPP and polycaprolactone (PCL) were coated onto stainless steel plate using a spraycoating method. From the surface morphology examination of the coated plate by SEM, smooth polymer coating layer could be observed. The thickness of coating layer could be controlled by changing repeating time of coating. From in vitro release test, sustained release of TPP was observed from plate during two weeks. Thus, TPP as iron chelator can be used as drug for stent coating because of its antiproliferative effect and sustain release profile.

Here, we present a case of a 56-year-old man with acute myocardial infarction. The patient underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at the left main bifurcation and mid-left anterior descending artery using drugeluting stents. Four months after the PCI, the patient was readmitted for cardiac arrest. Coronary angiography (CAG) revealed stent thrombosis in the left main-to-proximal left anterior descending artery and in-stent restenosis in the left main-to-proximal left circumflex artery. We performed balloon angioplasty at the left main to mid-left anterior descending artery and left main to proximal left circumflex artery stents; subsequently, blood flow was fully restored. However, contrast agent extravasation was observed outside the mid-portion of the left main artery to the proximal left anterior descending artery stent, indicating the presence of a coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) outside the stent. After guideline-directed medical therapy with dual antiplatelet agents and high-intensity statins, follow-up CAG revealed near-resolution of the CAA, absence of stenotic lesions, and good blood flow.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) has been increasing during the last decade and is the one of major causes of death. The management of patients with coronary artery disease has evolved considerably. There are two main strategies in the management of CAD, complementary, not competitive, each other; the pharmacologic therapy to prevent and treat CAD and the percutaneous coronary Intervention (PCI) to restore coronary flow. Antiplatelet drugs and cholesterol lowering drugs have central roles in pharmacotherapy. Drug eluting stent (DES) bring about revolutional changes in PCI. In the management of patients with 57 segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (AMI), there has been a debate on the better strategy for the restoration of coronary flow. Thrombolytic therapy is widely available and easy to administer, whereas primary PCI is less available and more complex, but mote complete. Recently published evidences in the pharmacologic therapy including antiplatelet and stalin, and PCI including DES and reperfusion therapy in patients with ST segment elevation AMI were reviewed.

최근에 내시경 관련기술의 진보에 따라서 시술 편리성, 회복시간 단축, 환자 고통 경감 등의 장점으로 인해 스텐트 삽입술이 빠르게 진보하였다. 본 연구에서 양성담관 협착 치료를 목적으로 파클리탁셀을 이용한 약물방출 스텐트를 전기분사 방법에 의해 제조하였으며, 이 때 사용된 고분자는 polyether-based polyurethane(상표명 : PELLETHANE 2363-80AE$^{(R)}$)과 첨가제로서 Pluronic F127, 약물로서 파클리탁셀을 사용하여 금속스텐트 표면에 코팅하였다. 그 결과로서, 약물이 코팅된 고분자 필름의 물리적 특성은 SEM, FTIR, 접촉각 측정기, XRD에 의해 확인하였으며, 약물방출속도는 약물함량이 높을수록 감소하였음을 알 수 있었다.
