Aspirin resistance, where the drug fails to inhibit platelet function, can predict cardiovascular events. However, reliable individual risk prediction and treatment adjustments for aspirin resistance remain challenging.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Pharmacology
  • Biochemistry

Background:

  • Aspirin is widely used for cardiovascular event prevention, primarily through its antithrombotic effects.
  • However, aspirin failure is observed in some patients, necessitating investigation into underlying mechanisms.
  • Aspirin resistance, defined by impaired platelet inhibition and thromboxane A2 suppression, is a recognized phenomenon.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the implications of aspirin resistance in cardiovascular event prediction.
  • To identify factors influencing aspirin's antiplatelet effectiveness.
  • To highlight current limitations in managing aspirin resistance.

Main Methods:

  • Assessment of platelet function using various in vitro tests.
  • Measurement of thromboxane A2 formation in whole blood.

  • Analysis of urinary thromboxane A2 metabolite excretion.

    • Main Results:

    • Impaired biochemical aspirin effect correlates with an increased risk of future cardiovascular events.
    • Factors influencing aspirin resistance include hypercholesterolemia, COX-2 expression, and genetic polymorphisms.
    • Biochemical aspirin resistance can predict major cardiovascular events.

    Conclusions:

    • Biochemical aspirin resistance is a significant predictor of cardiovascular events.
    • Current diagnostic tools lack reliability for individual risk assessment of aspirin resistance.
    • Further research is needed to determine optimal therapeutic strategies for aspirin-resistant patients.
