Pharmacology toprevent spasm inconduits
Guo- Wei He
Clinical incidence ofspasm inarterial grafts
Existence and prevalence ofspasm ofarterialgrafts
Internal thoracic artery spasm:currentprevalence
e current incidence of coronary artery bypass gra (CABG) spasm has been estimated at 0.43%. e rst report of early post­operative gra spasm as a clinical entity was in the le internal thoracic artery (ITA; also known as the internal mammary artery) gra in 1987. Subsequently it was reported that spasm could be a localized phenomenon or a diuse process, referred to as a ‘string sign’. ese clinical reports promoted intense physiological and pharmacological studies on the biological characteristics of the ITA to understand the nature of spasm. In an early study, the au­thor of this chapter demonstrated that the contractility of the distal section of the ITA is inversely correlated to its diameter; that is, the smaller the diameter, the greater the tendency for spasm to de­velop. is strongly suggests that the distal end of the ITA should not be harvested thereby helping to prevent gra spasm. In any event, it is almost never necessary to use the distal ITA particu­larly in the era of skeletonized ITA harvest and composite arterial graing. Indeed, many surgeons consider it important to leave the distal bifurcation of the ITA intact on the chest wall to facilitate sternal healing.
e exact prevalence of spasm of arterial gras, particularly when it is mild, is unknown, as it may be asymptomatic. However, when spasm is severe and does not respond to standard pharmacological management, it can be lethal.–  Areport conrmed that periopera­tive vasospasm in native coronary arteries or gras is about 0.43% (25/ 5762 patients) in all CABG surgery. It is possible, however, that the incidence of vasospasm could be underestimated because there may be some patients whose gra spasm is either asymptomatic or responsive to the early use of vasodilator agents and therefore not diagnosed as spasm.
Spasm ofother arterialgrafts
A large body of literature has demonstrated that the radial artery (RA),, and gastroepiploic artery are particularly prone to spasm. Indeed, the revival of the use of the RA during CABG was, at least in part, due to the successful use of antispastic medications.
Possible mechanisms ofspasm
Vascular spasm reects a complicated physiological status within blood vessels and while its precise mechanism is still unclear, it is understood to be an extreme form of vasoconstriction. In general, vasoconstriction may be evoked by a number of stimulants in­cluding mechanical and/ or nerve stimulation, as well as vasocon­strictor substances (spasmogens).,,
Spasmogens in arterial gras are well studied,, and in­clude endothelium- derived contracting factors (e.g. endothelin 1), prostaglandins (e.g. thromboxane A (TXA) or its mimetic pros­taglandin Fα), α- adrenoceptor agonists (e.g. norepinephrine, methoxamine, and phenylephrine), platelet- derived substances (e.g. 5- hydroxytryptamine), and the cellular membrane depolarizing agent potassium as well as mast cells and histamine.
It must be emphasized that the intact endothelium may prevent spasm of the vessel by spontaneous (basal) release of a number of endothelium- derived relaxing factors such as nitric oxide (NO).
Fig. 40.1 illustrates the possible mechanisms of contraction (or
spasm) in vessels.
Pharmacology ofthe vasodilator agents used forarterialgrafts
Prevention of spasm may be accomplished by following some im­portant principles such as maximally protecting the vessel during harvesting by using the least traumatic surgical techniques as well as pharmacological methods.
e pharmacology of the vasodilator agents used to prevent gra spasm is complex. In this chapter, a brief outline is presented of the most common vasodilator agents used clinically.

Fig.40.1 Schema of molecular mechanisms of smooth muscle contraction that may lead to spasm and the role of intact endothelium in prevention of
spasm. Contraction:vascular smooth muscle contraction is the summation of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) and myosin light chain phosphatase (MLCP) activity. Ca2+ influx via calcium channels located in the membrane (voltage- operated channel (VOC) and receptor- operated channel (ROC)) and Ca2+ release from intracellular stores in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) via phospholipase C (PLC)- mediated hydrolysis of phosphotidyl inositol bisphosphate, yielding inositol triphosphate (IP3) result in an increase in intracellular Ca2+. The Ca2+ interacts with calmodulin, forming a Ca2+– calmodulin complex which activates MLCK that phosphorylates MLCP, allowing for the close interaction of the actin and myosin filaments for force generation. Anumber of vasoconstrictors such as the agonists of α- adrenoceptor (α), thromboxane A2 (TXA2), endothelin 1 (ET), etc. stimulate G- protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) that directly open the ROC causing Ca2+ influx, or through the production of second messengers such as IP3 causing release of the stored Ca2+. Contraction can also be mediated in Ca2+- sensitization mechanism. Rho- kinase becomes activated via the activated RhoA protein, which subsequently phosphorylates MLCP, rendering the enzyme inactive and incapable of de- phosphorylating MLC. Endothelium:the intact endothelium may prevent spasm of the vessel by spontaneous (basal) release of a number of endothelium- derived relaxing such as nitric oxide (NO), prostacyclin (PGI2), and endothelium- derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) to balance the vasocontraction and relaxation in arterial grafts. Importantly, when the endothelium is intact, vasoconstrictors not only cause contraction, but also stimulate receptors located on the cellular membrane of endothelium and cause increase of the intracellular calcium concentration that, as second messenger, mediates release of endothelium- derived relaxing factors (NO, PGI2, and EDHF), which through different mechanisms reduce the intracellular calcium concentration in the smooth muscle cell and cause relaxation. 5HT, 5- hydroxytryptamine; α2, α2- adrenoceptors; ACh, acetylcholine; AII, angiotensin II receptors; ATII, angiotensin II; FP, PGF2α receptors; H2, histamine receptors; His, histamine; K+, potassium; M(M2); muscarinic receptors; MO, methoxamine; NE, norepinephrine; PE, phenylephrine; S1D, 5- HT1D receptors; TP, thromboxane- prostanoid receptors.

Papaverine
Papaverine is an opioid derivative and a non- specic vasodilator substance, which relaxes blood vessels through multiple mech­anisms including inhibition of phosphodiesterase (PDE) and decreasing calcium inux or inhibition of release of intracellularly stored calcium. However, papaverine is not recommended for sys­temic use. e major concern of the topical use of papaverine is its acidic nature, which may damage endothelial function. In fact, the pH of commercially available papaverine solution is 4.4 at 2.5mmol/ L and pH 4.8 at 30 µmol/ L. Acommon clinical protocol to topically use papaverine is to mix papaverine with blood (intraluminal 1% pa­paverine in blood), which may reduce its acidity due to the buering eect of blood.
Nitrovasodilators
Organic nitrates (nitrovasodilators) such as nitroglycerine (i.e. gly­ceryl trinitrate), sodium nitroprusside, or isosorbide dinitrate are widely used in CABG patients. ey release NO, a powerful stimu­lant for guanylate cyclase which raises cyclic guanosine monophos­phate (cGMP) in the smooth muscle cell, subsequently reduces intracellular calcium concentrations, and leads to relaxation.
In general, nitrates are eective in treating established vascular spasm, regardless of the nature of the contraction, but less potent in prevention of vasospasm. Nonetheless, oral nitrates, including long- acting nitrates such as isosorbide mononitrate, are commonly prescribed aer CABG with arterial conduits as they are inexpen­sive, readily available, and generally well tolerated.
Calciumantagonists
Classical calcium antagonists were three chemically divergent groups— dihydropyridine (e.g. nifedipine), phenylalkylamines (e.g. verapamil), and benzothiazepines (e.g. diltiazem)— and the eect of these drugs on the human ITA was extensively studied. e new generations of these drugs, particularly the new dihydropyridines such as nicardipine, amlodipine, and cilnidipine, have been devel­oped in the past decades and they all have vasodilatory eects in arterial gras. Some of these new generations of calcium antag­onists such as amlodipine and cilnidipine may also stimulate the vascular endothelium to release NO that may further enhance their vasorelaxant eect in arterial gras.
As to the systemic use of calcium antagonists, diltiazem or ver­apamil was traditionally recommended in RA graing for at least 6months. More recently, due to the improvements in atraumatic harvest techniques, prolonged administration of calcium channel blockers may not be as necessary as previously believed, but most surgeons still prescribe either a calcium channel blocker or long­acting nitrate for CABG patients when the RA is used. e role of the systemic use of calcium channel antagonists postoperatively on the long- term patency of RA gras needs further investigation.
Phosphodiesteraseinhibitors
As modulators of vascular smooth muscle tone, intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cGMP are controlled through synthesis by cyclases and through hydrolysis by PDEs that are classied into least ve types. PDE III inhibitors such as amrinone or milrinone are known to inhibit cGMP- inhibitable low Km cAMP PDE. e eect of the PDE III inhibitor milrinone
on the ITA or RA, and the PDE IIIA inhibitor olprinone on the gastroepiploic artery and RA have been shown to ef­fective in producing vasodilation. Moreover, it is known that the vasodilatory eect of milrinone on the ITA is greater than its ef­fect on the RA.
Alpha- adrenoceptorantagonists
Both ITA and RA–  are α- adrenoceptor- predominant ar­teries. However, the ITA has few α- adrenoceptors whereas the RA has signicant α- adrenoceptor function. is is the rationale to use α- adrenoceptor antagonists such as phenoxybenzamine as antispastic drugs in CABG as eective agents to prevent catecholamine- mediated spasm of RA., However, theoretically, α- adrenoceptor antagonists are only eective in reversing the con­traction evoked by α- adrenoceptors, implying that α- adrenoceptor antagonists may only be eective in one specic mechanism of spasm and may be insucient when the spasm is related to other mechanisms, for example, due to other receptor mechanisms or via the L- type calcium channel. e nature of vasoconstriction and spasm is complex and may involve many other vasoconstrictors such as endothelin 1, TXA, and so on. In fact, Conant and col­leagues reported that phenoxybenzamine- treated RA failed to respond to noradrenaline but did respond to vasopressin, angio­tensin II, endothelin 1, and potassium chloride and therefore cal­cium channel inhibition alone is insucient to prevent all spasm in the RA.
Potassium channelopeners
Potassium channel openers (KCOs) repolarize or hyperpolarize the cell membrane. ey therefore decrease the opening prob­ability of voltage- dependent L- and T- type calcium channels and restrain agonist- induced calcium release from intracellular sources through inhibition of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) forma­tion, and lower the eciency of calcium as an activator of con­tractile proteins. KCOs specically targeting ATP- sensitive K+ channels such as aprikalim, and other KCOs have been studied in the human ITA and found to be potent vasodilators, preventing contraction mediated by a number of receptors. KCOs such as nicorandil are available clinically with antianginal eects and, therefore, KCOs may become a clinically useful antispastic drug in arterial gras.
Prostacyclinanalogue
e synthetic analogue of prostacyclin, iloprost, was recommended as an antispastic drug for RA and ITA conduits and was shown to have superior ecacy over diltiazem in preventing RA spasm in the early period; iloprost was also superior to diltiazem in 2- year angio­graphic patency of RA conduits.
Other vasodilatoragents
Apart from these commonly used pharmacological vasodilators, other vasodilator agents may potentially be developed as antispastic agents for the gras. ese candidate pharmaceuticals include beta- receptor agonists, dopamine receptor agonists, rho- kinase inhibitors, angiotensin receptor antagonists, heme oxygenase 1, C- type natriuretic peptide, TXA antagonists, vascular endothelial growth factor, antiplatelet drugs, - carnitine, botulinum toxin, and

Combination ofvasodilators
All vasodilators have their own limitations in some aspect be­cause each of them has a specic mechanism(s) to relax vessels. Combinations of these vasodilators may produce a better eect. Some of the possible combinations have been studied in the ITA and RA. For example, as an intraluminal or topical solution for the preparation of the gras, calcium antagonists (verapamil or nicardipine) and nitroglycerine may have a synergistic eect in the ITA and in RA, and may improve the patency rate of RA gras. Even in the critical situation of lethal spasm problems, the combination of nitroglycerine and verapamil has been reported to successfully relieve spasm in arterial gras through intraluminal

Combination of other vasodilators is also reported. For example, the combination of milrinone and nitroglycerine has more than an additive eect. In addition, other combinations of vasodilators are also reported but their eect in preparation of arterial gras is yet to be established.

The Ca2+ interacts with calmodulin, forming a Ca2+– calmodulin complex which activates MLCK that phosphorylates myosin light chain, allowing for force generation. Vasoconstrictors such as the agonists of α- adrenoceptor (α), thromboxane A2 (TXA2), endothelin 1 (ET), etc. stimulate G- protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) directly opening the ROC causing Ca2+ influx, or through the production of second messengers such as IP3 causing release of the stored Ca2+. Contraction can also be mediated in a Ca2+- sensitization mechanism. Rho- kinase becomes activated via the activated RhoA protein, which subsequently phosphorylates MLCP, rendering the enzyme inactive and incapable of de- phosphorylating MLC. Relaxation:relaxation occurs with MLCP dephosphorylating MLC. This can be fulfilled through various mechanisms. For example, it can be via blockage of Ca2+ influx by calcium channel blockers (CCB) to decrease the intracellular Ca2+. The antagonists of specific vasoconstrictors such as the antagonists of α- adrenoceptor, TXA2, ET, etc. inhibit the ROC associated with GPCRs. Nitrovasodilators via releasing nitric oxide (NO) stimulate soluble guanylate cyclases (sGCs), which increase synthesis of cGMP from GTP. Increased cGMP level inhibits VOC and ROC through protein kinase G (PKG) pathways. NO– cGMP also interacts with the rho- kinase pathway via cGMP regulated protein kinases (cGK), interferes with the MLC and phospho- MLC activity, and finally relaxes the smooth muscle. The rho- kinase inhibitor inhibits rho- kinase pathway and the phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors increase cGMP level via inhibiting cGMP– 5GMP activity, relaxing the vessel. Potassium channel openers (K+ openers) open the potassium channels such as calcium- sensitive potassium channels (KCa), cause efflux of K+, and hyperpolarize the membrane potential (Em). The membrane hyperpolarization decreases intracellular Ca2+ levels by inhibiting Ca2+ influx through VOC and favours the reuptake of Ca2+ into intracellular stores and extrusion of Ca2+ from the cell, resulting in relaxation. Prostacyclin (PGI2) raises cAMP levels in the cytosol and via activation of the protein kinase Apathway leads to relaxation. This schema also shows that each vasodilator relaxes blood vessels in a specific pathway, although there are some interactions between the pathways. Apossible protocol for relaxation of coronary artery bypass grafts is to combine two vasodilators that relax the vessel in different pathways.

Antispastic methods invenousgrafts
is chapter is focused on the pharmacology of arterial gras. ese same principles are also valid in venous gras. In fact, spasm of
the greater saphenous vein has been a recognized problem during harvesting. e vein is almost inevitably spastic when it is dissected if no pharmacological antispastic method is used. e pharmaco­logical solutions used for arterial gras are also used to prevent the spasm of the vein, such as the combination of verapamil and nitro­glycerine. Careful surgical technique including gentle manipula­tion and dilatation of the vein and proper use of antispastic solutions may maximally prevent spasm of venous conduits.

Conclusion
In summary, pharmacological methods have been developed to pre­vent or overcome spasm in both arterial and venous gras. Aperfect antispastic protocol should include an advanced atraumatic surgical technique for harvesting gras, particularly to protect the endothe­lium, and adequate pharmacological methods. All vasodilator drugs relax the vessel in a specic mechanism or mechanisms. erefore, there is presently no ‘perfect’ single vasodilator as the ‘best’ vaso­dilator to prevent or treat spasm of the arterial gra against all mech­anisms of contraction and multiple methods are used clinically at the moment. It is probably wise to use a combination of pharma­cological vasodilators targeting dierent mechanisms of spasm in order to obtain the most reliable eect. Acalcium channel blocker such as verapamil or nicardipine combined with a NO- releasing drug such as nitroglycerine used topically on the gras with ad­equate systemic use of a calcium antagonist when necessary is a rea­sonable choice in contemporary CABG surgery to overcome spasm.
