Background— Iron overload has been implicated in the pathogenesis of
ischemic cardiovascular events. However, the effects of iron excess on
vascular function and the thrombotic response to vascular injury are
not well understood.
Methods and Results— We examined the effects of chronic iron dextran
administration (15 mg over 6 weeks) on thrombosis, systemic and
vascular oxidative stress, and endothelium-dependent vascular
reactivity in mice. Thrombus generation after photochemical carotid
artery injury was accelerated in iron-loaded mice (mean time to
occlusive thrombosis, 20.4±8.5 minutes; n=10) compared with control
mice (54.5±35.5 minutes, n=10, P=0.009). Iron loading had no effect on
plasma clotting, vessel wall tissue factor activity, or ADP-induced
platelet aggregation. Acute administration of DL-cysteine, a reactive
oxygen species scavenger, completely abrogated the effects of iron
loading on thrombus formation, suggesting that iron accelerated
thrombosis through a pro-oxidant mechanism. Iron loading enhanced both
systemic and vascular reactive oxygen species production. Endothelium-
dependent vasorelaxation was impaired in iron-loaded mice, indicating
reduced NO bioavailability.
Conclusions— Moderate iron loading markedly accelerates thrombus
formation after arterial injury, increases vascular oxidative stress,
and impairs vasoreactivity. Iron-induced vascular dysfunction may
contribute to the increased incidence of ischemic cardiovascular
events that have been associated with chronic iron overload.

platelet aggregation. Acute administration of DL-cysteine, a reactive
oxygen species scavenger, completely abrogated the effects of iron
loading on thrombus formation, suggesting that iron accelerated
thrombosis through a pro-oxidant mechanism. Iron loading enhanced both
systemic and vascular reactive oxygen species production. Endothelium-
dependent vasorelaxation was impaired in iron-loaded mice, indicating
reduced NO bioavailability.
Conclusions- Moderate iron loading markedly accelerates thrombus
formation after arterial injury, increases vascular oxidative stress,
and impairs vasoreactivity. Iron-induced vascular dysfunction may
contribute to the increased incidence of ischemic cardiovascular
events that have been associated with chronic iron overload.

Background— Iron overload has been implicated in the pathogenesis of
ischemic cardiovascular events. However, the effects of iron excess
on
vascular function and the thrombotic response to vascular injury are
not well understood.
Methods and Results— We examined the effects of chronic iron dextran
administration (15 mg over 6 weeks) on thrombosis, systemic and
vascular oxidative stress, and endothelium-dependent vascular
reactivity in mice. Thrombus generation after photochemical carotid
artery injury was accelerated in iron-loaded mice (mean time to
occlusive thrombosis, 20.4±8.5 minutes; n=10) compared with control
mice (54.5±35.5 minutes, n=10, P=0.009). Iron loading had no effect
on
plasma clotting, vessel wall tissue factor activity, or ADP-induced
platelet aggregation. Acute administration of DL-cysteine, a reactive
oxygen species scavenger, completely abrogated the effects of iron
loading on thrombus formation, suggesting that iron accelerated
thrombosis through a pro-oxidant mechanism. Iron loading enhanced
both
systemic and vascular reactive oxygen species production.
Endothelium-
dependent vasorelaxation was impaired in iron-loaded mice, indicating
reduced NO bioavailability.
Conclusions— Moderate iron loading markedly accelerates thrombus
formation after arterial injury, increases vascular oxidative stress,
and impairs vasoreactivity. Iron-induced vascular dysfunction may
contribute to the increased incidence of ischemic cardiovascular
events that have been associated with chronic iron overload.

post off topic messages there.
Note that groups-abuse@google.com is slow and not very effective
at responding to reports of spam posted through Google groups, so
I would expect them to be unlikely to act on reports of being off topic.
However, it does help to report the same spammers over and over
for different messages for at least 6 weeks, so perhaps groups-abuse@google.com just can't keep up with reading all their

Diabetes Raises the Risk of Thrombosis in Atheromatous Coronary
Arteries
A study was undertaken at the Massachusetts General Hospital to
quantify the lipid composition and macrophage infiltration in
atheromatous plaques of culprit coronary arteries removed from 47
patients diagnosed with diabetes who were subjected to atherectomy for
acute ischemic events. Lesions were also studied from 48 nondiabetic
patients matched clinically and demographically with the diabetic
patients.
Four types of tissue in atheromatous plaque were identified by
staining: tissue with few cells and densely-stained collagen; tissue
with abundant smooth muscle cells and a loose connective tissue
matrix; lipid-rich atheroma with acellular debris, cholesterol clefts,
and no preserved connective tissue matrix; and thrombus.
It was found that lipid-rich atheroma and macrophages occupied larger
percentages of total area of specimens from diabetic than nondiabetic
patients. The incidence of thrombus was greater in diabetic than in
nondiabetic subjects (62% vs 40%, P=0.04). Whether diabetic patients
had been treated with insulin, a sulfonylurea, or diet had no effect
on plaque composition, macrophage infiltration, or thrombus presence.
The finding that coronary tissue from patients diagnosed with diabetes
exhibits a larger content of lipid-rich atheroma, macrophage
infiltration, and subsequent thrombosis than tissue from patients
without diabetes suggests that diabetes increases vulnerability for
coronary thrombosis.

macrophage infiltration in atherectomy specimens from patients with
diabetes mellitus. Circulation. 2000;102:2180-2184.

Black Box Warning Ordered for Aranesp, Epogen, and Procrit

ROCKVILLE, Md., March 9 -- The FDA warned today that aggressive use of
erythropoiesis-stimulating agents to raise hemoglobin to a target of
12 g/dL or higher was associated with "serious and life-threatening
side-effects and/or death."
The warning states:
Avoid serious cardiovascular and arterial and venous thromboembolic
events by using the lowest dose of Aranesp, Epogen, or Procrit that
will gradually raise the hemoglobin concentration to the lowest level
sufficient to avoid the need for blood transfusion.
