Recent studies suggest that tranilast inhibits a variety of agents implicated in neointimal growth and restenosis in experimental animal models and humans. We report here a study evaluating the efficacy of tranilast in the rat carotid artery balloon angioplasty model, a model that mimics many aspects of the percutaneous transluminal angioplasty procedure in humans. Efficacy was determined based on in vivo and ex vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as well as by histomorphometry. The utility of this study, using a reverse paradigm, is to investigate if agents successful in the clinic can demonstrate efficacy in this animal model primary screen as measured by MRI and histomorphometry.
