Edaravone, a Synthetic Free Radical Scavenger, Enhances Alteplase-Mediated Thrombolysis

Figure 5

Effect of edaravone on alteplase-induced thrombolysis in PRP. (a) Flow-pressure curves in the control, edaravone, alteplase, and edaravone-alteplase groups in PRP under flow conditions (). (b) AUC30 in the alteplase and edaravone-alteplase groups in PRP. (c) D-dimer concentration in sump solutions after measurement using the Total Thrombus-formation Analysis System in PRP in the alteplase and edaravone-alteplase groups (). AUC30: area under the curve at 30 min; PRP: platelet-rich plasma.
