Thrombin may have a pivotal role in restenosis after angioplasty. Hirudin, a potent thrombin inhibitor, reduces luminal narrowing by plaque after angioplasty in a rabbit model of atherosclerosis. Because cellular proliferation is believed to be an important mechanism for restenosis and thrombin has been shown to be a potent smooth muscle cell mitogen in vitro, we hypothesized that the mechanism of the effect of hirudin on limiting luminal narrowing by plaque occurs via inhibition of cellular proliferation.
