PDE5 Inhibitor Sildenafil Citrate Augments Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilation in Smokers
ABSTRACT—Smoking is associated with endothelial dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of sildenafil, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), on endothelial function in smokers. We evaluated the forearm blood flow (FBF) responses to acetylcholine (ACh), an endoth...

description | ABSTRACT—Smoking is associated with endothelial dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of sildenafil, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), on endothelial function in smokers. We evaluated the forearm blood flow (FBF) responses to acetylcholine (ACh), an endothelium-dependent vasodilator, and to sodium nitroprusside (SNP), an endothelium-independent vasodilator, before and after oral sildenafil administration (100 mg) with a strain-gauge plethysmograph in 10 young healthy male smokers and 10 young healthy male nonsmokers. FBF response to ACh was lower in smokers than in nonsmokers. The vasodilatory effects of SNP were similar in both groups. Sildenafil increased the FBF response to ACh from 9.3±2.0 to 12.5±3.5 mL/min per 100 mL tissue in smokers and from 12.6±5.6 to 19.6±8.4 mL/min per 100 mL tissue in nonsmokers, and it increased the response to SNP from 13.3±3.9 to 15.1±4.3 mL/min per 100 mL tissue in smokers and from 14.8±5.2 to 18.4±6.0 mL/min/100 mL tissue in nonsmokers (P |
