The stable prostacyclin analog, iloprost, and prostaglandin E1 inhibit monocyte procoagulant activity in vitro.

Exposure of human peripheral blood to 100 ng/mL of bacterial endotoxin for 2 hours resulted in a 20-fold increase in monocyte procoagulant activity. The activity was functionally identified as tissue factor, because it was not expressed in plasma deficient in factor VII and was specifically inhibited by a monoclonal antibody directed against human tissue factor. When the stable prostacyclin analog, iloprost, was added to blood 30 minutes before endotoxin, a dose-dependent inhibition of monocyte procoagulant activity occurred, with an I50 of 20 nmol/L. Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) produced similar effects, with an I50 of 150 nmol/L. Exposure of THP-1 monocytic cells to 100 ng/mL endotoxin resulted in a threefold increase in procoagulant activity after 2 hours and a 20-fold increase after 6 hours. A 30-minute pretreatment with iloprost or PGE1 again inhibited development of procoagulant activity, with I50 values of 5 nmol/L and 150 nmol/L, respectively. Treatment of THP-1 cells with iloprost 2 hours after exposure to endotoxin significantly inhibited further increases in procoagulant activity. Iloprost was less potent under these conditions, 30% inhibition being obtained at 100 nmol/L and 70% at 1 mumol/L. These results suggest that prostacyclin may be a physiologic modulator of monocyte tissue factor expression; in addition, its stable analog, iloprost, may have clinical potential for the treatment of thrombotic disorders in which elevated monocyte procoagulant activity plays a role.
