Abstract
AIM The "2024 ACC/AHA/AACVPR/APMA/ABC/SCAI/SVM/SVN/SVS/SIR/VESS Guideline for the Management of Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease" provides recommendations to guide clinicians in the treatment of patients with lower extremity peripheral artery disease across its multiple clinical presentation subsets (ie, asymptomatic, chronic symptomatic, chronic limb-threatening ischemia, and acute limb ischemia). METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted from October 2020 to June 2022, encompassing studies, reviews, and other evidence conducted on human subjects that was published in English from PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, CINHL Complete, and other selected databases relevant to this guideline. Additional relevant studies, published through May 2023 during the peer review process, were also considered by the writing committee and added to the evidence tables where appropriate. STRUCTURE Recommendations from the "2016 AHA/ACC Guideline on the Management of Patients With Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease" have been updated with new evidence to guide clinicians. In addition, new recommendations addressing comprehensive care for patients with peripheral artery disease have been developed.

Abstract
Endothelial senescence, aging-related inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction are prominent features of vascular aging and contribute to the development of aging-associated vascular disease. Accumulating evidence indicates that DNA damage occurs in aging vascular cells, especially in endothelial cells (ECs). However, the mechanism of EC senescence has not been completely elucidated, and so far, there is no specific drug in the clinic to treat EC senescence and vascular aging. Here we show that various aging stimuli induce nuclear DNA and mitochondrial damage in ECs, thus facilitating the release of cytoplasmic free DNA (cfDNA), which activates the DNA-sensing adapter protein STING. STING activation led to a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), thereby releasing pro-aging cytokines and cfDNA to further exacerbate mitochondrial damage and EC senescence, thus forming a vicious circle, all of which can be suppressed by STING knockdown or inhibition. Using next-generation RNA sequencing, we demonstrate that STING activation stimulates, whereas STING inhibition disrupts pathways associated with cell senescence and SASP. In vivo studies unravel that endothelial-specific Sting deficiency alleviates aging-related endothelial inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction and prevents the development of atherosclerosis in mice. By screening FDA-approved vasoprotective drugs, we identified Cilostazol as a new STING inhibitor that attenuates aging-related endothelial inflammation both in vitro and in vivo. We demonstrated that Cilostazol significantly inhibited STING translocation from the ER to the Golgi apparatus during STING activation by targeting S162 and S243 residues of STING. These results disclose the deleterious effects of a cfDNA-STING-SASP-cfDNA vicious circle on EC senescence and atherogenesis and suggest that the STING pathway is a promising therapeutic target for vascular aging-related diseases. A proposed model illustrates the central role of STING in mediating a vicious circle of cfDNA-STING-SASP-cfDNA to aggravate age-related endothelial inflammation and mitochondrial damage.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of cilostazol prescription in patients with femoropopliteal peripheral artery disease (PAD) after endovascular therapy (EVT). MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of all studies reporting the outcomes of cilostazol after femoropopliteal EVT of PAD up to September 2022. Clinical outcomes of interest included primary patency, in-stent restenosis (ISR), vessel re-occlusion, freedom from target lesion revascularization (TLR), repeat revascularization, all-cause mortality, amputation, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and major adverse limb events (MALEs), and bleeding complication. RESULTS A total of 4 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and 8 observational studies containing a total of 4898 patients met the inclusion criteria and were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. We found that the use of cilostazol was associated with higher primary patency after femoropopliteal artery EVT (odds ratio [OR]=1.67, 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.50-1.87, p<0.001, I2=33.2%), a lower risk of ISR (OR=0.43, 95% CI=0.29-0.63, p<0.001, I2=37.6%), repeat revascularization (OR=0.43, 95% CI=0.24-0.76, p<0.005, I2=27.4%), and vessel re-occlusion (OR=0.59, 95% CI=0.38-0.93, p<0.05, I2=0%). There was an increase in freedom from TLR rate (OR=2.19, 95% CI=1.58-3.05, p<0.001, I2=0%), as well as a reduction in the occurrence of MALEs (OR=0.50, 95% CI=0.29-0.85, p<0.05, I2=0%). However, there was no significant difference in amputation, MACEs, all-cause mortality, and major bleeding complications. Subgroup analysis showed that cilostazol treatment in patients with femoropopliteal drug-eluting stents (DES) implantation remained associated with higher primary patency and a lower risk of ISR. CONCLUSIONS After EVT of femoropopliteal artery lesions, additional oral cilostazol enhances primary patency, reduces the occurrences of ISR and vessel re-occlusion, diminishes the risks associated with MALEs, lowers the need for repeat revascularization, and increases freedom from TLR rates. However, it does not impact amputation, MACEs, all-cause mortality, or major bleeding complications. These findings suggest cilostazol as a potentially safe and effective adjunct therapy in patients with femoropopliteal PAD after EVT. CLINICAL IMPACT After undergoing endovascular therapy (EVT) for femoropopliteal artery lesions, the addition of cilostazol to antiplatelet therapy can significantly improve primary patency, reducing the incidence of in-stent restenosis, repeat revascularization, vessel re-occlusion, and major adverse limb events while increasing freedom from target lesion revascularization rate. The simultaneous use of drug-eluting stents in the femoropopliteal artery lesions, combined with cilostazol, potentially results in a synergistic anti-stenotic effect. This therapeutic approach does not appear to be associated with an increased risk of major bleeding events or all-cause mortality. These findings provide additional evidence supporting the treatment of anti-stenosis in patients with femoropopliteal artery lesions after EVT.

Abstract
Moyamoya disease (MMD) is closely associated with the Ring Finger Protein 213 (RNF213), a susceptibility gene for MMD. However, its biological function remains unclear. We aimed to elucidate the role of RNF213 in the damage incurred by human endothelial cells under oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). We analyzed autophagy in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) derived from patients carrying either RNF213 wildtype (WT) or variant (p.R4810K). Subsequently, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were transfected with RNF213 WT (HUVECWT) or p.R4810K (HUVECR4810K) and exposed to OGD for 2 h. Immunoblotting was used to analyze autophagy marker proteins, and endothelial function was analyzed by tube formation assay. Autophagic vesicles were observed using transmission electron microscopy. Post-OGD exposure, we administered rapamycin and cilostazol as potential autophagy inducers. The RNF213 variant group during post-OGD exposure (vs. pre-OGD) showed autophagy inhibition, increased protein expression of SQSTM1/p62 (p < 0.0001) and LC3-II (p = 0.0039), and impaired endothelial function (p = 0.0252). HUVECR4810K during post-OGD exposure (versus pre-OGD) showed a remarkable increase in autophagic vesicles. Administration of rapamycin and cilostazol notably restored the function of HUVECR4810K and autophagy. Our findings support the pivotal role of autophagy impaired by the RNF213 variant in MMD-induced endothelial cell dysfunction.

Abstract
Numerous evidence has demonstrated that the brain is not an immune-privileged organ but possesses a whole set of lymphatic transport system, which facilitates the drainage of harmful waste from brains to maintain cerebral homeostasis. However, as individuals age, the shrinkage and dysfunction of meningeal and deep cervical lymphatic networks lead to reduced waste outflow and elevated neurotoxic molecules deposition, further inducing aging-associated cognitive decline, which act as one of the pathological mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease. Consequently, recovering the function of meningeal and deep cervical lymph node (dCLNs) networks (as an important part of the brain waste removal system (BWRS)) of aged brains might be a feasible strategy. Herein we showed that the drug brain-entering efficiency was highly related to administration routes (oral, subcutaneous, or dCLN delivery). Besides, by injecting a long-acting lyotropic liquid crystalline implant encapsulating cilostazol (an FDA-approved selective PDE-3 inhibitor) and donepezil hydrochloride (a commonly used symptomatic relief agent to inhibit acetylcholinesterase for Alzheimer's disease) near the deep cervical lymph nodes of aged mice (about 20 months), an increase of lymphatic vessel coverage in the nodes and meninges was observed, along with accelerated drainage of macromolecules from brains. Compared with daily oral delivery of cilostazol and donepezil hydrochloride, a single administered dual drugs-loaded long-acting implants releasing for more than one month not only elevated drug concentrations in brains, improved the clearing efficiency of brain macromolecules, reduced Aβ accumulation, enhanced cognitive functions of the aged mice, but improved patient compliance as well, which provided a clinically accessible therapeutic strategy toward aged Alzheimer's diseases.

Abstract
Cilostazol is a drug that has both antiplatelet and vasodilatory effects. To examine the effects of cilostazol on cerebral blood flow and rehabilitation following stroke, cilostazol was administered to two patients with chronic atherothrombotic cerebral infarction. In both patients, cilostazol administration effectively increased cerebral blood flow and promoted rehabilitation. Therefore, cilostazol was considered to be a useful agent for improving the clinical condition of patients suffering from chronic cerebral infarction. Further clinical studies on the effective use of cilostazol for rehabilitation in stroke patients are needed.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) stands as the leading global cause of mortality. Addressing this vital and pervasive condition requires a multifaceted approach, in which antiplatelet intervention plays a pivotal role, together with antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and lipid-lowering therapies. Among the antiplatelet agents available currently, cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitor, offers a spectrum of pharmacological effects. These encompass vasodilation, the impediment of platelet activation and aggregation, thrombosis inhibition, limb blood flow augmentation, lipid profile enhancement through triglyceride reduction and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol elevation, and the suppression of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. However, the role of cilostazol has not been clearly documented in many guidelines for ASCVD. We comprehensively reviewed the cardiovascular effects of cilostazol within randomized clinical trials that compared it to control or active agents and involved individuals with previous coronary artery disease or stroke, as well as those with no previous history of such conditions. Our approach demonstrated that the administration of cilostazol effectively reduced adverse cardiovascular events, although there was less evidence regarding its impact on myocardial infarction. Most studies have consistently reported its favorable effects in reducing intermittent claudication and enhancing ambulatory capacity in patients with peripheral arterial disease. Furthermore, cilostazol has shown promise in mitigating restenosis following coronary stent implantation in patients with acute coronary syndrome. While research from more diverse regions is still needed, our findings shed light on the broader implications of cilostazol in the context of atherosclerosis and vascular biology, particularly for individuals at high risk of ASCVD.

Abstract
Background The optimal treatment for asymptomatic atherosclerotic carotid artery disease remains controversial. Data on the efficacy of antiplatelet agents and stroke outcomes are limited. This study aimed to examine the efficacy and safety of cilostazol-based dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack and asymptomatic carotid artery disease. Methods This retrospective cohort study was conducted in a tertiary-care setting and included baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes of participants. The study included patients who had experienced first-ever ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack and asymptomatic atherosclerotic carotid artery stenosis, with a minimum follow-up period of 1 year. Asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis refers to stenosis in patients without neurological symptoms referable to the carotid arteries. Propensity scores were estimated using a logistic regression model based on participants' baseline characteristics. The efficacy outcome was the composite outcome of recurrent ischemic events and vascular-related death in patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack and asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis. The safety outcome was the occurrence of hemorrhagic complications such as intracranial hemorrhages or extracranial hemorrhages. The effectiveness of dual therapy compared to monotherapy was evaluated at various time points following the initiation of antiplatelet treatment. Results This study included 516 patients with a 1-year follow-up period. At 1 year, composite events occurred in 10 (6.3%) patients in the dual antiplatelet group compared with 12 (7.6%) in the single antiplatelet group (HR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.61-0.90; p = 0.024). Extracranial hemorrhage occurred in 12 (7.6%) patients in the dual antiplatelet group compared with nine (5.7%) in the single antiplatelet group (HR, 1.35; 95% CI, 1.13-1.48; p = 0.017). No intracranial hemorrhages were observed in this cohort. Conclusion Patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis who received cilostazol-based dual antiplatelet therapy had a lower risk of composite events but a higher risk of minor extracranial hemorrhage than those who received a single antiplatelet agent.

Abstract
AIMS The study aimed to estimate the cost-effectiveness of CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy using cilostazol and ticagrelor as an alternative to clopidogrel, compared to conventional antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel and aspirin. METHODS A 90-day decision tree and 30-year Markov model were employed to assess the costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) of personalized antiplatelet therapy for patients with minor ischemic stroke and high-risk transient ischemic attack, compared to conventional antiplatelet therapy in the Chinese healthcare system. The primary outcome was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER). The data sources included clinical trials, published literature, official documents and local prices. One-way sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were performed to confirm the robustness of the findings. RESULTS The base-case analysis indicated that the CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet strategy was cost-effective, and cilostazol group and ticagrelor group yielded an ICER of 3327.40 US dollars (USD)/QALY and 3426.92 USD/QALY, respectively, which were less than threshold. The one-way sensitivity analysis showed the results were robust, where the most sensitive parameter was the disability distribution in the modified Rankin scale 3-5. The probabilistic analysis showed that the CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy with either cilostazol or ticagrelor was 100% cost-effective under the willingness-to-pay threshold. CONCLUSIONS CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy using cilostazol and ticagrelor as an alternative to clopidogrel appeared to be more cost-effective than conventional antiplatelet therapy for acute minor ischemic stroke and high-risk transient ischemic attack patients over 30 years in China.

Abstract
To improve the efficacy over antiplatelet monotherapy, dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has been increasingly adopted in the management of non-cardioembolic stroke. For minor ischemic stroke and high-risk transient ischemic attack, the aspirin-clopidogrel combination is now recommended for acute short-term treatment, whereas aspirin-ticagrelor combination may be considered in selected patients, especially those with resistance to clopidogrel. For long-term stroke prevention, aspirin-dipyridamole combination has been used as an alternative to antiplatelet monotherapy, and aspirin or clopidogrel combined with cilostazole may be prescribed for added protection in high-risk patients. In this paper, we review the development of DAPT from a historical perspective and describe the findings from major clinical trials published up until the end of 2023. Using the 2021 American Heart Association guideline for secondary stroke prevention as a basis for our recommendations, we further discuss areas of controversy and more recent developments to provide an updated review for clinicians to consider in their daily practice.

Abstract
Fracture healing in the aged is associated with a reduced healing capacity, which often results in delayed healing or non-union formation. Many factors may contribute to this deterioration of bone regeneration, including a reduced 'angiogenic trauma response'. The phosphodiesterase-3 (PDE-3) inhibitor cilostazol has been shown to exert pro-angiogenic and pro-osteogenic effects in preclinical studies. Therefore, we herein analyzed in a stable closed femoral fracture model whether this compound also promotes fracture healing in aged mice. Forty-two aged CD-1 mice (age: 16-18 months) were daily treated with 30 mg/kg body weight cilostazol (n = 21) or vehicle (control, n = 21) by oral gavage. At 2 and 5 weeks after fracture, the femora were analyzed by X-ray, biomechanics, micro-computed tomography (µCT), histology, immunohistochemistry, and Western blotting. These analyses revealed a significantly increased bending stiffness at 2 weeks (2.2 ± 0.4 vs. 4.3 ± 0.7 N/mm) and an enhanced bone formation at 5 weeks (4.4 ± 0.7 vs. 9.1 ± 0.7 mm3) in cilostazol-treated mice when compared to controls. This was associated with a higher number of newly formed CD31-positive microvessels (3.3 ± 0.9 vs. 5.5 ± 0.7 microvessels/HPF) as well as an elevated expression of phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) (3.6 ± 0.8 vs. 17.4 ± 5.5-pixel intensity × 104) and runt-related transcription factor (RUNX)2 (6.4 ± 1.2 vs. 18.2 ± 2.7-pixel intensity × 104) within the callus tissue. These findings indicate that cilostazol accelerates fracture healing in aged mice by stimulating angiogenesis and the expression of PI3K and RUNX2. Hence, cilostazol may represent a promising compound to promote bone regeneration in geriatric patients.

Abstract
Background and purpose Various prophylactic drugs for cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral infarction (DCI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) have been used in Japan. To investigate the treatment trends for cerebral vasospasm and frequency of DCI after SAH throughout Japan in 2021. Methods In 2021 we conducted an anonymous questionnaire survey on management for preventing cerebral vasospasm after aneurysmal SAH, and the frequency of DCI. The questionnaire was emailed to 955 certified neurosurgeons at 553 hospitals in Japan. Of them, 162 hospitals (29% response rate) responded to the questionnaire. Of these, 158 were included in this study, while four hospitals that responded insufficiently were excluded. The efficacy of treatments for reducing DCI were examined through a logistic regression analysis. Results Among 3,093 patients treated with aneurysmal SAH, 281 patients (9.1%) were diagnosed with DCI related to cerebral vasospasm. Coil embolization had significantly lower DCI frequency (6.9%), compared to microsurgical clipping (11.8%, odds ratio, 0.90; 95% confidential intervals, 0.84-0.96; P, 0.007). In addition, cilostazol administration was associated with significantly lower DCI frequency (0.48; 0.27-0.82; 0.026). The efficacy of cilostazol in reducing DCI remained unchanged after adjustment for covariates. The most effective combination of multiple prophylactic drugs in reducing DCI related to cerebral vasospasm was cilostazol, fasudil, and statin (0.38; 0.22-0.67; 0.005). Conclusions This study elucidated the trends in prophylactic drugs to prevent cerebral vasospasm and frequency of DCI after aneurysmal SAH in Japan. Coil embolization and cilostazol administration showed effectiveness in reducing DCI related to cerebral vasospasm in 2021.

Abstract
Surgical revascularization remains the standard treatment for symptomatic moyamoya disease (MMD). As with any major surgical treatment, revascularization is associated with risks and limitations, denoting the need for noninvasive treatments to improve ischemic symptoms and prevent strokes. Cilostazol is a selective phosphodiesterase III inhibitor with antiplatelet, antithrombotic, and vasodilatory effects commonly used in peripheral vascular disease. Clinical studies assessing the efficacy of cilostazol in the management of stroke and MMD were recently reported, although a comprehensive assessment of the overall evidence is lacking. A systematic scoping review was conducted to assess the early evidence on cilostazol administration in patients with MMD. The inclusion criteria encompassed original human studies primarily focused on cilostazol's safety, efficacy, or utilization in managing MMD patients. A search of the PubMed database was conducted in June 2023, yielding 5 peer-reviewed publications that satisfied the inclusion criteria and were subjected to narrative synthesis. Risk of bias assessment was not applicable due to the scoping nature of this review. East Asian studies demonstrate increasing rates of cilostazol prescriptions for patients with MMD. In a large population-based study, cilostazol was compared to other antiplatelet medications and yielded the largest decrease in mortality among patients with newly diagnosed MMD. Other studies reported significant improvements in cerebral blood flow and cognitive function, which were deemed to be independent of one another. There are limited data on the safety profile of cilostazol in the MMD population, although the evidence derived from various studies performed in the general stroke population can likely provide insights into its potential utility in MMD patients. Cilostazol targets several critical pathways involved in the pathophysiology of MMD. The evidence corroborates the potential benefits of cilostazol for the management of MMD, although these findings should be interpreted with caution due to the small number of studies and lack of randomized trials. Subgroups of patients need to be identified who can safely undergo medical management in lieu of revascularization surgery or to improve surgical outcomes. Additional studies are needed to assess the efficacy and safety of cilostazol therapy, especially in Western populations.

Abstract
Hepatic iron overload (HIO) is a hallmark of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with a poor prognosis. Recently, the role of hepatic erythrophagocytosis in NAFLD is emerging as a cause of HIO. We undertook various assays using human NAFLD patient pathology samples and an in vivo nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) mouse model named STAMTM. To make the in vitro conditions comparable to those of the in vivo NASH model, red blood cells (RBCs) and platelets were suspended and subjected to metabolic and inflammatory stresses. An insert-coculture system, in which activated THP-1 cells and RBCs are separated from HepG2 cells by a porous membrane, was also employed. Through various analyses in this study, the effect of cilostazol was examined. The NAFLD activity score, including steatosis, ballooning degeneration, inflammation, and fibrosis, was increased in STAMTM mice. Importantly, hemolysis occurred in the serum of STAMTM mice. Although cilostazol did not improve lipid or glucose profiles, it ameliorated hepatic steatosis and inflammation in STAMTM mice. Platelets (PLTs) played an important role in increasing erythrophagocytosis in the NASH liver. Upregulated erythrophagocytosis drives cells into ferroptosis, resulting in liver cell death. Cilostazol inhibited the augmentation of PLT and RBC accumulation. Cilostazol prevented the PLT-induced increase in ectopic erythrophagocytosis in in vivo and in vitro NASH models. Cilostazol attenuated ferroptosis of hepatocytes and phagocytosis of RBCs by THP-1 cells. Augmentation of hepatic erythrophagocytosis by activated platelets in NASH exacerbates HIO. Cilostazol prevents ectopic erythrophagocytosis, mitigating HIO-mediated ferroptosis in NASH models.

Abstract
Despite being a potent anticancer drug, cisplatin has limited applicability due to its adverse effects, such as testicular damage. Consequently, reducing its toxicity becomes necessary. In this study, a selective phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitor, cilostazol, which is used to treat intermittent claudication, was examined for its ability to abrogate cisplatin-induced testicular toxicity. Its ameliorative effect was compared to that of two phosphodiesterase inhibitors, tadalafil and pentoxifylline. The study also focused on the possible mechanisms involved in the proposed protective effect. Cisplatin-treated rats showed a significant decrease in sperm number and motility, serum testosterone, and testicular glutathione levels, as well as a significant elevation in malondialdehyde, total nitrite levels, and the protein expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, nuclear factor-kappa β, and caspase-3. These outcomes were confirmed by marked testicular architecture deterioration. Contrary to this, cilostazol, in a dose-dependent manner, showed potential protection against testicular toxicity, reversed the disrupted testicular function, and improved histological alterations through rebalancing of oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. In addition, cilostazol exerted a more pronounced protective effect in comparison to tadalafil and pentoxifylline. In conclusion, cilostazol ameliorates cisplatin-induced testicular impairment through alteration of oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptotic pathways, offering a promising treatment for cisplatin-induced testicular damage.

Abstract
The studies interpreting DCI, a complication of SAH, and identifying correlations are very limited. This study aimed to investigate the effect of cilostazol on ACV and DCI after coil embolization for ruptured aneurysms (n = 432). A multivariate analysis was performed and explainable artificial intelligence approaches were used to analyze the contribution of cilostazol as a risk factor on the development of ACV and DCI with respect to global and local interpretation. The cilonimo group was significantly lower than the nimo group in ACV (13.5% vs. 29.3; p = 0.003) and DCI (7.9% vs. 20.7%; p = 0.006), respectively. In a multivariate logistic regression, the odds ratio for DCI for the cilonimo group, female sex, and aneurysm size was 0.556 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.351-0.879; p = 0.012), 3.713 (95% CI, 1.683-8.191; p = 0.001), and 1.106 (95% CI, 1.008-1.214; p = 0.034). The risk of a DCI occurrence was significantly increased with an aneurysm size greater than 10 mm (max 80%). The mean AUC of the XGBoost and logistic regression models was 0.94 ± 0.03 and 0.95 ± 0.04, respectively. Cilostazol treatment combined with nimodipine could decrease the prevalence of ACV (13.5%) and DCI (7.9%) in patients with aSAH.

Abstract
Background No large-scale study has compared the clinical impact of triple antiplatelet therapy (TAPT: aspirin, clopidogrel, and cilostazol) and dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) on adverse limb events in patients with diabetes after endovascular therapy (EVT) for peripheral artery disease. Thus, we investigate the effect of cilostazol added to a DAPT on the clinical outcomes after EVT in patients with diabetes using a nationwide, multicenter, real-world registry. Methods and Results A total of 990 patients with diabetes who underwent EVT were enrolled from the retrospective cohorts of a Korean multicenter EVT registry and were divided according to the antiplatelet regimen (TAPT [n=350; 35.4%] versus DAPT [n=640; 64.6%]). After propensity score matching based on clinical characteristics, a total of 350 pairs were compared for clinical outcomes. The primary end points were major adverse limb events, a composite of major amputation, minor amputation, and reintervention. For the matched study groups, the lesion length was 125.4±102.0 mm, and severe calcification was observed in 47.4%. The technical success rate (96.9% versus 94.0%; P=0.102) and the complication rate (6.9% versus 6.6%; P>0.999) were similar between the TAPT and DAPT groups. At 2-year follow-up, the incidence of major adverse limb events (16.6% versus 19.4%; P=0.260) did not differ between the 2 groups. However, the TAPT group showed less minor amputation than the DAPT group (2.0% versus 6.3%; P=0.004). In multivariate analysis, TAPT was an independent predictor of minor amputation (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.354 [95% CI, 0.158-0.794]; P=0.012). Conclusions In patients with diabetes undergoing EVT for peripheral artery disease, TAPT did not decrease the incidence of major adverse limb events but may be associated with a decreased risk of minor amputation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously reported that dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with cilostazol was superior to aspirin or clopidogrel for the prevention of recurrent stroke and vascular events in a subgroup analysis of intracranial arterial stenosis in the Cilostazol Stroke Prevention Study for Antiplatelet Combination (CSPS.com), a randomized controlled trial. AIMS We conducted another subgroup analysis to investigate the benefit of DAPT with cilostazol in patients with extracranial arterial stenosis (ECAS) and those without arterial stenosis. METHODS We compared the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke, vascular events, and major bleeding between DAPT with cilostazol plus aspirin or clopidogrel and aspirin or clopidogrel alone in patients with ischemic stroke between 8 and 180 days before starting trial treatment and ECAS or without arterial stenosis. RESULTS The median follow-up period was 1.4 years. The risk of recurrent ischemic stroke (hazard ratio (HR): 1.04, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.42-2.57) and vascular events (HR: 0.97, 95% CI: 0.42-2.24) did not differ between the two groups for the 253 patients with ECAS, whereas they were lower (HR: 0.36, 95% CI: 0.18-0.74 and HR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.26-0.85, respectively) in the DAPT group for the 944 patients without arterial stenosis. The risk of major bleeding did not differ between the groups in patients with ECAS (HR: 0.58, 95% CI: 0.05-6.39) or without arterial stenosis (HR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.27-2.26). CONCLUSION DAPT with cilostazol might be beneficial for prevention of recurrent stroke and vascular events in patients without arterial stenosis but not in those with ECAS. DATA ACCESS STATEMENT We will make the deidentified participant data from this research available to the scientific community with as few restrictions as feasible, while retaining exclusive use until the publication of major output.

Abstract
AIM Alzheimer's dementia (AD) is a slowly progressing neurodegenerative disease, characterized by beta-amyloid deposition and neurofibrillary tangles. Peripheral atherosclerosis may deteriorate these processes via endothelial cell dysfunction and microvascular impairment. Cilostazol - a phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor - is a standard treatment for peripheral arterial occlusive disease and a potential treatment for preserving cognitive function in AD patients. We aimed to determine whether cilostazol is beneficial in AD patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease by evaluating Cognitive Abilities Screening Instrument (CASI) domains. METHODS We conducted a retrospective case-control study of 62 AD patients in Taiwan. Thirty-one patients had peripheral arterial occlusive disease and were receiving cilostazol plus acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AchEIs) or N-methyl d-aspartate antagonists, whereas 31 others were receiving AchEIs. Therapeutic responses were measured using neuropsychological assessments. The CASI was administered at baseline and 12 months later; different domains were analyzed between the groups using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS Age, sex, education duration, ApoE ε4 gene status, and initial Mini-Mental State Examination scores were not different between the two groups. Except for fluency, no CASI domains showed a statistical difference between the groups. A significant difference was observed in category fluency (P = 0.010). In the logistic regression analysis, after adjusting for covariate effects, category fluency still showed a significant difference between the groups (P = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS In AD patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease who have received Food and Drug Administration-approved pharmacotherapy, cilostazol, as an antiplatelet, may help to preserve general cognitive function, with significant preservation in category fluency.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of long-term dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to prevent recurrent strokes in patients with lacunar stroke remains unclarified. Therefore, this study aimed to compare and to elucidate the safety and effectiveness of DAPT and single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) in preventing recurrence in chronic lacunar stroke. METHODS CSPS.com (Cilostazol Stroke Prevention Study for Antiplatelet Combination) was a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial. In this prespecified subanalysis, 925 patients (mean age, 69.5 years; 69.4% men) with lacunar stroke were selected from 1884 patients with high-risk noncardioembolic stroke, enrolled in the CSPS.com trial after 8 to 180 days following stroke. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either SAPT or DAPT using cilostazol and were followed for 0.5 to 3.5 years. The primary efficacy outcome was the first recurrence of ischemic stroke. The safety outcomes were severe or life-threatening bleeding. RESULTS The DAPT group receiving cilostazol and either aspirin or clopidogrel and SAPT group receiving aspirin or clopidogrel alone comprised 464 (50.2%) and 461 (49.8%) patients, respectively. Ischemic stroke occurred in 12 of 464 patients (1.84 per 100 patient-years) in the DAPT group and 31 of 461 patients (4.42 per 100 patient-years) in the SAPT group, during follow-up. After adjusting for multiple potential confounding factors, ischemic stroke risk was significantly lower in the DAPT group than in the SAPT group (hazard ratio, 0.43 [95% CI, 0.22-0.84]). The rate of severe or life-threatening hemorrhage did not differ significantly between the groups (2 patients [0.31 per 100 patient-years] versus 6 patients [0.86 per 100 patient-years] in the DAPT and SAPT groups, respectively; hazard ratio, 0.36 [95% CI, 0.07-1.81]). CONCLUSIONS In patients with lacunar stroke, DAPT using cilostazol had significant benefits in reducing recurrent ischemic stroke incidence compared with SAPT without increasing the risk of severe or life-threatening bleeding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cilostazol is a guideline-recommended drug that improves intermittent claudication and quality of life in patients with chronic atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease. The drug is used for most etiologies of arterial occlusive diseases in clinical practice. This study aimed to evaluate whether patients benefit equally from cilostazol regardless of etiology. METHODS Patients on cilostazol were divided into 4 groups according to arterial occlusive disease etiology: (1) atherosclerosis, (2) diabetic angiopathy, (3) embolism/thrombosis, and (4) Buerger disease. Patients' maximum walking distance, ankle-brachial index score and distal tissue oxygen saturation (Sto2), clinical improvement onset time, ability to reach maximum benefit time, vascular surgeries, and wounds were compared before they started cilostazol and after 12 months. Results were evaluated at a statistical significance of P < .05. RESULTS In 194 patients, 307 target extremities were evaluated in the 4 disease groups. After cilostazol use, maximum walking distance, ankle-brachial index score, and distal Sto2 increased significantly in all groups (P < .001), but distal Sto2 in the diabetic angiopathy and Buerger disease groups was significantly lower than in the atherosclerosis group (P < .001). Ankle-brachial index and distal Sto2 differences in the Buerger disease group were significantly lower (both P < .001). The vascular surgery counts decreased significantly in the atherosclerosis and embolism/thrombosis groups (P = .019 and P = .004, respectively). CONCLUSION Patients with nonatherosclerotic arterial occlusive disease also benefit from cilostazol, but patients with Buerger disease or diabetic angiopathy seem to benefit less. Combining cilostazol with anticoagulant or antiaggregant agents and closer monitoring of these patients may produce better results.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most severe and frequent form of muscular dystrophy. The mdx mouse is one of the most widely used experimental models to understand aspects of the biology of dystrophic skeletal muscles and the mechanisms of DMD. Oxidative stress and apoptosis are present in early stages of the disease in mdx mice. The high production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes activation of apoptotic death regulatory proteins due to DNA damage and breakdown of nuclear and mitochondrial membranes. The quadriceps (QUA) muscle of the mdx mouse is a good tool to study oxidative events. Previous studies have demonstrated that cilostazol exerts an anti-oxidant effect by decreasing the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The present study aimed to evaluate the ability of cilostazol to modulate oxidative stress and apoptosis in the QUA muscle of mdx mice. Fourteen-day-old mdx mice received cilostazol or saline for 14 days. C57BL/10 mice were used as a control. In the QUA muscle of mdx mice, cilostazol treatment decreased ROS production (-74%), the number of lipofuscin granules (-47%), lipid peroxidation (-11%), and the number of apoptotic cells (-66%). Thus cilostazol showed anti-oxidant and anti-apoptotic action in the QUA muscle of mdx mice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to determine the protective effect of cilostazol on myocardium in obese Wistar rats with induced ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). METHODS Four groups with 10 Wistar rats were included: 1] Sham Group: IRI was not established in normal weight-Wistar rats. 2] Control Group: IRI but no cilostazol in normal weight-Wistar rats. 3] Cilostazol in normal weight-Wistar rats: IRI and cilostazol was administered. 4] Cilostazol in obese- Wistar rats: IRI and cilostazol was administered. RESULTS Tissue adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels were significantly higher and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels significantly lower in the control group than in the sham group and normal weight cilostazol group (p=0.024 and p=0.003). Fibrinogen levels were 198 mg/dL in the sham group, 204 mg/dL in the control group, and 187 mg/dL in the normal-weight cilostazol group (p=0.046). Additionally, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) levels were significantly higher in the control group (p=0.047). The level of ATP was significantly lower in the normal-weight cilostazol group than in the obese group (104 vs 131.2 nmol/g protein, p=0.043). PAI-1 level was 2.4 ng/mL in the normal weight cilostazol group and 3.7 ng/mL in the obese cilostazol group (p=0.029). Normal-weight Wistar rats with cilostazol had significantly better histologic outcomes than the control group and obese Wistar rats (p=0.001 and p=0.001). CONCLUSION Cilostazol has a protective effect on myocardial cells in IRI models by decreasing inflammation. The protective role of cilostazol was reduced in obese Wistar rats compared with normal-weight Wistar rats.

Abstract
Platelets play an important role in physiological hemostatic mechanisms. In contrast, platelet activation has been implicated in pathological conditions, such as atherosclerosis, angiogenesis, and inflammation. Thrombin is considered to be of particular pathological importance as a platelet-activating substance, and thrombin-activated platelets are detected in the blood of patients with advanced occlusive arterial disease. Ca2+ acts as a second messenger in platelet activation, and the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) is important for controlling platelet functions. However, changes in [Ca2+]i by antiplatelet agents remain unclear. Therefore, we herein investigated the relationship between [Ca2+]i and the intensity of platelet aggregation after a thrombin stimulation, the relationship between [Ca2+]i and the intensity of platelet aggregation by antiplatelet agents, and the effects of antiplatelet agents on thrombin-activated platelets as a surrogate platelet model for arterial occlusive disease. Fura2-loaded platelets were treated with phosphate-buffered saline or a low concentration of thrombin (0.005 U/mL), followed by antiplatelet agents (aspirin or cilostazol), and changes in [Ca2+]i and the intensity of platelet aggregation by the thrombin stimulation were measured using fluorescence spectrophotometry. Changes in [Ca2+]i and the intensity of platelet aggregation after the thrombin stimulation as well as the relationship between [Ca2+]i and the intensity of platelet aggregation by antiplatelet agents indicated that cilostazol exerted stronger antiplatelet effects than aspirin and also that antiplatelet effects may be attenuated in thrombin-activated platelets. The present results also suggest the utility of thrombin-activated platelets as a surrogate platelet model for arterial occlusive disease. These results may contribute to future drug development for antiplatelet therapy. J. Med. Invest. 70 : 94-100, February, 2023.

Abstract
Introduction Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is an important cause of dementia that lacks effective treatment. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of cilostazol, an antiplatelet agent with potential neurovascular protective effects, in slowing the progression of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) in stroke- and dementia-free subjects harboring confluent WMH on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods In this single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, we randomized stroke- and dementia-free subjects with confluent WMHs to receive cilostazol or placebo for 2 years in a 1:1 ratio. The primary outcome was change in WMH volume over 2 years. Secondary outcomes were changes in brain volumes, lacunes, cerebral microbleeds, perivascular space, and alterations in white matter microstructural integrity, cognition, motor function, and mood. Results We recruited 120 subjects from October 27, 2014, to January 21, 2019. A total of 55 subjects in the cilostazol group and 54 subjects in the control group were included for intention-to-treat analysis. At 2-year follow-up, the changes in WMH volume were not statistically different between cilostazol treatment and placebo (0.3±1.0 mL vs -0.1±0.8 mL, p = 0.167). Secondary outcomes, bleeding and vascular events, were also not statistically different between the two groups. Discussion In this trial with stroke- and dementia-free subjects with confluent WMHs, cilostazol did not impact WMH progression but demonstrated an acceptable safety profile. Future studies should address the treatment effects of cilostazol on subjects at different clinical stages of SVD.

Abstract
The nucleotide second messenger 3', 5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3', 5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) mediate fundamental functions of the brain, including learning and memory. Phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) can hydrolyze both cAMP and cGMP and appears to be involved in the regulation of their contents in cells. We previously demonstrated that long-term administration of cilostazol, a PDE3 inhibitor, maintained good memory performance in aging mice. Here, we report on studies aimed at determining whether cilostazol also reverses already-impaired memory in aged male mice. One month of oral 1.5% cilostazol administration in 22-month-old mice reversed age-related declines in hippocampus-dependent memory tasks, including the object recognition and the Morris water maze. Furthermore, cilostazol reduced neuroinflammation, as evidenced by immunohistochemical staining, and increased glucose uptake in the brain, as evidence by positron emission tomography (PET) with 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-d-glucose ([18F]FDG). These results suggest that already-expressed memory impairment in aged male mice that depend on cyclic nucleotide signaling can be reversed by inhibition of PDE3. The reversal of age-related memory impairments may occur in the central nervous system, either through cilostazol-enhanced recall or strengthening of weak memories that otherwise may be resistant to recall.

Abstract
Cilostazol is an antiplatelet agent with vasodilating effects that functions by increasing the intracellular concentration of cyclic adenosine monophosphate. We have previously shown that cilostazol has favorable effects on angiogenesis. However, there is no study to evaluate the effects of cilostazol on adiponectin. We investigated the effects of cilostazol on angiogenesis in diabetes in vitro and in vivo through adiponectin/adiponectin receptors (adipoRs) and the sirtuin 1 (SIRT1)/AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) were cocultured under high glucose (HG) conditions. Adiponectin concentrations in the supernatants were significantly increased when HASMCs were treated with cilostazol but not significantly changed when only HUVECs were treated with cilostazol. Cilostazol treatment enhanced the expression of SIRT1 and upregulated the phosphorylation of AMPK in HG-treated HUVECs. By sequential knockdown of adipoRs, SIRT1, and AMPK, our data demonstrated that cilostazol prevented apoptosis and stimulated proliferation, chemotactic motility, and capillary-like tube formation in HG-treated HUVECs through the adipoRs/SIRT1/AMPK signaling pathway. The phosphorylation of downstream signaling molecules, including acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), was downregulated when HUVECs were treated with a SIRT1 inhibitor. In streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice, cilostazol treatment could improve blood flow recovery 21-28 days after inducing hindlimb ischemia as well as increase the circulating of CD34+CD45dim cells 14-21 days after operation; moreover, these effects were significantly attenuated by the knockdown of adipoR1 but not adipoR2. The expression of SIRT1 and phosphorylation of AMPK/ACC and Akt/eNOS in ischemic muscles were significantly attenuated by the gene knockdown of adipoRs. Cilostazol improves HG-induced endothelial dysfunction in vascular endothelial cells and enhances angiogenesis in diabetic mice by upregulating the expression of adiponectin/adipoRs and its SIRT1/AMPK downstream signaling pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Verapamil (VER) and cilostazol (Cilo) are mostly used as cardiovascular drugs; they have beneficial effects on different organs toxicities. AIM we investigated whether the Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), and Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathway involved in the protective role of these drugs against Thioacetamide (TAA) induced hepatotoxicity. METHOD male rats were randomized divided into five groups, each group (n = 10): control, TAA, VER+TAA, Cilo+TAA, and VER+Cilo+TAA groups. Hepatotoxicity induced in rats by TAA injection once on the 7th day of the experiment. RESULTS TAA-induced hepatotoxicity indicated by a significant elevated in serum markers (Alanine aminotransferases (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferases (AST), and bilirubin), oxidative stress markers (Malondialdehyde (MDA), and Nitric oxide (NO)), and protein levels markers (NF-κB, and S100 calcium-binding protein A4 (S100A4)). Also, TAA decreased Nrf2, and increased GSK-3β genes expression. Histopathological alterations in the liver also appeared as a response to TAA injection. On the other hand VER and/or Cilo significantly prevented TAA-induced hepatotoxicity in rats through significantly decreased in ALT, AST, bilirubin, MDA, NO, NF-κB, and S100A4 protein levels. Also, they increased Nrf2 and decreased GSK-3β genes expression which caused improvement in the histopathological changes of the liver. CONCLUSION the addition of verapamil to cilostazol potentiated the hepatoprotective activity, and inhibited the progression of hepatotoxicity caused by TAA through the Nrf2/GSK-3β/NF-κBpathway and their activity on oxidative stress, inflammation, and NF-κB protein expression.

Abstract
Cardiac fibrosis is characterized by the net accumulation of extracellular matrix in the myocardium and is an integral component of most pathological cardiac conditions. Cilostazol, a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type III with anti-platelet, anti-mitogenic, and vasodilating properties, is widely used to treat the ischemic symptoms of peripheral vascular disease. Here, we investigated whether cilostazol has a protective effect against Angiotensin II (AngII)-induced cardiac fibrosis. Male apolipoprotein E-deficient mice were fed either a normal diet or a diet containing cilostazol (0.1% wt/wt). After 1 week of diet consumption, the mice were infused with saline or AngII (1000 ng kg−1 min−1) for 28 days. AngII infusion increased heart/body weight ratio (p < 0.05), perivascular fibrosis (p < 0.05), and interstitial cardiac fibrosis (p < 0.0001), but were significantly attenuated by cilostazol treatment (p < 0.05, respectively). Cilostazol also reduced AngII-induced increases in fibrotic and inflammatory gene expression (p < 0.05, respectively). Furthermore, cilostazol attenuated both protein and mRNA abundance of osteopontin induced by AngII in vivo. In cultured human cardiac myocytes, cilostazol reduced mRNA expression of AngII-induced osteopontin in dose-dependent manner. This reduction was mimicked by forskolin treatment but was cancelled by co-treatment of H-89. Cilostazol attenuates AngII-induced cardiac fibrosis in mice through activation of the cAMP−PKA pathway.

Abstract
Despite advances in cancer treatment, chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is still one of the leading causes of death in the world. Due to the role of inflammation in cancer promotion and progression, thus use of anti-inflammatory agents may suppress cancer cell growth. In this study, we used two anti-inflammatory drugs, cilostazol and meloxicam, for the treatment of CML. Cell viability was measured using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and the synergism occurrence was calculated by compusyn software. Annexin V/PI test and Hoechst staining were used to determine the apoptosis rate. To determine the pathway of apoptosis induction, the expression of BCL2 Associated X (Bax) and B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) apoptotic genes and caspases activity were evaluated. The cell cycle was analyzed by propidium iodide (PI) staining and flow cytometry. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence were performed to estimate alterations in Ak strain transforming-1 (AKT-1), phosphprylated AKT-1 (p-AKT-1), adenosine mono-phosphate-kinase (AMPK), and phosphorylated AMPK (p-AMPK) proteins and BCR/ABL and c-Myc distribution, respectively. Results showed that cilostazol, meloxicam, and their combination drug reduced cell viability (p < 0.05). Compared with control, expression of Bax and Bcl-2 decreased in treated cells, respectively (p < 0.05). The caspase-9 activity increased in treated cells compared to control cells (p < 0.001). The applied drugs decreased the protein level of p-AKT-1 while increasing the p-AMPK protein level (p < 0.05). BCR/ABL and c-Myc Protein distribution significantly decreased in treated cells. In conclusion, the combination drug had more cytotoxic effects than cilostazol and meloxicam alone and induced apoptosis by inhibiting AKT-1 activation and c-Myc reduction. Therefore using combination drugs effectively can treat cancers of CML origin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thrombotic antiphospholipid syndrome (t-PAPS) is characterized by arterial, venous, or microvascular occlusions, which are explained, in part, by the presence of antiphospholipid (aPL) antibodies. Although there is much evidence indicating that isolated aPL antibodies increase the activity of platelets obtained from healthy volunteers, platelet function in t-PAPS has not been as widely studied. OBJECTIVE To evaluate platelet reactivity in t-PAPS patients. METHODS Platelet aggregation, protein expression, and cyclic nucleotide levels were carried out in platelet rich plasma (PRP) or washed platelets (WPs) obtained from t-PAPS or healthy volunteers. RESULTS ADP-induced aggregation was significantly higher in PRP obtained from t-PAPS than obtained from the control. The protein expression of P2Y12 receptor and Gs alpha was significantly higher and lower, respectively in WPs from t-PAPS patients. In PRP incubated with iloprost or sodium nitroprusside, the residual platelet reactivity induced by ADP was still higher in PRP from t-PAPS than from the control. Lower intracellular levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) were observed in unstimulated PRP from t-PAPS patients. The protein expression of soluble guanylate cyclase subunits and phosphodiesterases types 3 and 5 did not differ. The antiplatelet activity of ticagrelor was similar between the groups and cilostazol significantly potentiated this response. Isolated aPL antibodies obtained from t-PAPS patients potentiated ADP-induced aggregation in healthy platelets but did not affect the inhibitory responses induced by iloprost or sodium nitroprusside. CONCLUSIONS The overexpression of P2Y12 receptor, accompanied by lower levels of cAMP and cGMP levels produced greater amplitude of ADP aggregation in platelets from t-PAPS patients.

Abstract
Background The objective of the study was to assess the cost-effectiveness of cilostazol (a selective phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor) added to aspirin or clopidogrel for secondary stroke prevention in patients with noncardioembolic stroke. Methods and Results A Markov model decision tree was used to examine lifetime costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) of patients with noncardioembolic stroke treated with either aspirin or clopidogrel or with additional cilostazol 100 mg twice daily. Cohorts were followed until all patients died from competing risks or ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis using Monte Carlo simulation was used to model 10 000 cohorts of 10 000 patients. The addition of cilostazol to aspirin or clopidogrel is strongly cost saving. In all 10 000 simulations, the cilostazol strategy resulted in lower health care costs compared with aspirin or clopidogrel alone (mean $13 488 cost savings per patient; SD, $8087) and resulted in higher QALYs (mean, 0.585 more QALYs per patient lifetime; SD, 0.290). This result remained robust across a variety of sensitivity analyses, varying cost inputs, and treatment effects. At a willingness-to-pay threshold of $50 000/QALY, average net monetary benefit from the addition of cilostazol was $42 743 per patient over their lifetime. Conclusions Based on the best available data, the addition of cilostazol to aspirin or clopidogrel for secondary prevention following noncardioembolic stroke results in significantly reduced health care costs and a gain in lifetime QALYs.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the effect of baicalein on the pharmacokinetics of cilostazol (CLZ) and its two metabolites 3,4-dehydro cilostazol (3,4-CLZ) and 4'-trans-hydroxy cilostazol (4'-CLZ) in rats using a newly established ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method. Ticagrelor was used as an internal standard (IS), then cilostazol and its two metabolites were separated by means of a UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm × 50 mm, 1.7 μm) using gradient elution method with 0.4 ml/min of flow rate. Acetonitrile as organic phase and water with 0.1% formic acid as aqueous phase constructed the mobile phase. Selective reaction monitoring (SRM) mode and positive ion mode were preferentially chosen to detect the analytes. Twelve SD rats were divided into two groups (n = 6) when CLZ was administered orally (10 mg/kg) with or without oral baicalein (80 mg/kg). The selectivity, linearity, recovery, accuracy, precision, matrix effect and stability of UPLC-MS/MS assay were satisfied with the standards of United States Food and Drug Administration guidelines. In control group, AUC0-∞ and Cmax of CLZ were 2,169.5 ± 363.1 ng/ml*h and 258.9 ± 82.6 ng/ml, respectively. The corresponding results were 3,767.6 ± 1,049.8 ng/ml*h and 308.6 ± 87.9 ng/ml for 3, 4-CLZ, 728.8 ± 189.9 ng/ml*h and 100.3 ± 51.3 ng/ml for 4'-CLZ, respectively. After combination with baicalein, AUC0-∞ and Cmax of CLZ were 1.48, 1.38 times higher than the controls. Additionally, AUC0-∞ and Cmax were separately decreased by 36.12 and 19.54% for 3,4-CLZ, 13.11 and 44.37% for 4'-CLZ. Baicalein obviously alters the pharmacokinetic parameters of CLZ, 3,4-CLZ and 4'-CLZ in rats. These results suggested that there was a potential drug-drug interaction between baicalein and CLZ. Therefore, it must raise the awareness when concomitant use of CLZ with baicalein, the dosage regimen of CLZ should be taken into consideration, if this result is confirmed in clinical studies.

Abstract
Vasospasm, initial neurological damage, rebleeding, and periprocedural complications are associated prognostic factors for clinical outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In this study, factors related to delayed ischemic neurological deficit (DIND) are evaluated using data from our institute for the last 18 years. Data from 2001 to 2018 of patients with aneurysmal SAH who underwent surgical clipping (SC) or endovascular coiling (EC) within 7 days of onset were retrospectively analyzed. Cases of mortality within 5 days after treatment were excluded. Multivariate analysis was used to identify the risk factors for DIND. In total, 840 cases of SAH were assessed; among these cases, 384 (45.7%) and 456 (54.3%) were treated with SC and EC, respectively. The frequency of DIND in the EC group was significantly less than that in the SC group (11.8% vs. 17.7%; p = 0.016). In the results of multivariate analysis, internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysm and hemorrhagic complications were the risk factors for DIND. Cilostazol administration and EC were significant factors for vasospasm prevention after aneurysmal SAH (odds ratio of ICA aneurysm: 1.59, hemorrhagic complications: 1.76, SC: 1.51, and cilostazol administration: 0.51, respectively). Cilostazol administration was also a significant factor in patients who were treated with EC. ICA aneurysm, treatment strategy, hemorrhagic complications, and cilostazol administration were associated with DIND. Oral administration of cilostazol and avoiding hemorrhagic complications were effective in DIND prevention. If both treatments are available for ruptured aneurysms, clinicians should choose EC on the basis of its ability to prevent DIND.

Abstract
Background Cilostazol is often used in Asia-Pacific countries for stroke prevention. The current systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and adverse outcomes of cilostazol monotherapy compared to aspirin monotherapy for secondary stroke prevention. Methods The researchers conducted a comprehensive research in multiple databases (PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane library) of randomized controlled trials from conception to December 2020. The primary efficacy outcome was the occurrence of any stroke, the primary safety outcome was the bleeding risk, and the primary adverse outcome was the rate of headache and dizziness. The Mantel-Haenszel method was used to calculate a random-effects prediction. Cilostazol and aspirin were compared using a pooled risk assessment with 95% CIs. Results Six studies involving 5,617 patients were included in this review. Compared with aspirin monotherapy, cilostazol was associated with significantly lower rates of any strokes (RR: 0.67; 95% CI: 0.55–0.82) and significantly lower bleeding rates [risk ratio (RR): 0.53; 95% CI: 0.37–0.74]. However, compared with aspirin monotherapy, cilostazol was associated with significantly higher rates of headache (RR: 1.77; 95% CI: 1.41–2.20) and dizziness (RR: 1.28; 95% CI: 1.08–1.52). Conclusions Consistent with previous studies, cilostazol monotherapy is superior to aspirin monotherapy in reducing the rate of any strokes and the bleeding risk after having a stroke. However, the use of cilostazol monotherapy is associated with several adverse life outcomes such as headaches and dizziness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The plateau environment is characterized by low oxygen partial pressure, leading to the reduction of oxygen carrying capacity in alveoli and the reduction of available oxygen in tissues, and thus causing tissue damage. Cilostazol is a phosphodiesterase III inhibitor that has been reported to increase the oxygen release of hemoglobin (Hb) in tissues. This study aims to explore the anti-hypoxic activity of cilostazol and its anti-hypoxic effect. METHODS A total of 40 male BALB/C mice were randomly divided into a low-dose cilostazol (6.5 mg/kg) group, a medium-dose (13 mg/kg) group, a high-dose (26 mg/kg) group, and a control group. The atmospheric airtight hypoxia experiment was used to investigate the anti-hypoxic activity of cilostazol and to screen the optimal dosage. Twenty-four male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a normoxia control group, a hypoxia model group, an acetazolamide (22.33 mg/kg) group, and a cilostazol (9 mg/kg) group. After 3 days of hypoxia in the 4 010 m high altitude, blood from the abdominal aorta was collected to determine blood gas indicators, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in plasma were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutataione (GSH) were measured. The degree of pathological damage for rat tissues was observed with HE staining. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the survival time of mice in the low, medium, and high dose group of cilostazol was significantly prolonged, and the survival time of mice in the medium dose group was the longest, with an extension rate at 29.34%, so the medium dose was the best dose. Compared with the hypoxia model group, the P50 (oxygen partial pressure at Hb oxygen saturation of 50%) value of rats in the cilostazol group was significantly increased by 1.03%; Hb and Hct were significantly reduced by 8.46% and 8.43%, and the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in plasma were reduced by 50.65% and 30.77%. The MDA contents in heart, brain, lung, liver, and kidney tissues were reduced by 37.12%, 29.55%, 25.00%, 39.34%, and 21.47%, respectively. The SOD activities were increased by 94.93%, 9.14%, 9.42%, 13.29%, and 20.80%, respectively. The GSH contents were increased by 95.24%, 28.62%, 28.57%, 20.80%, and 44.00%, respectively. The results of HE staining showed that compared with the hypoxia model group, cilostazol significantly improved the damage of heart, lung, and kidney tissues in rats after hypoxia. CONCLUSIONS Cilostazol can significantly improve the oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction caused by rapid altitude hypoxia, and it has a significant protective effect on tissue damage caused by hypoxia, suggesting that it has obvious anti-hypoxic activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the most dangerous gynecological emergencies is ovarian ischemia that commonly occurs during surgical manipulation or presence of ovarian masses. OBJECTIVES finding new therapies to prevent the associated harmful effects of ischemia/reperfusion-induced damage is still a critical need. For the first time, we aimed to evaluate the possible role of phosphodiesterase (PDE) 3 A inhibitor (PDEI), cilostazol (CLZ) in the treatment of ovarian ischemia reperfusion induced damage (OIR). METHODS Rats were divided into five groups; sham, OIR group; CLZ (5, 10, 20 mg/kg) was given orally with induced OIR. Different biochemical parameters were detected such as total anti-oxidant capacity (TAC), reduced glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), sirtuin1 (SIRT1), toll like receptor 4 (TLR4), nuclear factor kappa b (NF-κB) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα). In addition, histopathological features, ovarian weight changes and casapse3 immunoexpression were detected. RESULTS Data revealed significant increase in ovarian weight changes, MDA, TLR4, TNFα, NF-κB and caspase 3 expressions in OIR induced group. Moreover, OIR group had histopathological features of ovarian damage with depletion of cAMP, SIRT1, TAC and GSH. CONCLUSION CLZ could ameliorate OIR-induced damage due to PDE inhibition, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic properties with modulation of TLR4/NF-κB/TNFα and cAMP/SIRT1 signaling pathways.

Abstract
Background Cilostazol combined with P2Y12 receptor inhibitor has been used as a substitute regimen for aspirin‐intolerant patients undergoing percutaneous coronary stent implantation on a small scale. Its exact impact on platelet functions and clinical benefits of aspirin‐intolerant patients is unknown. Hypothesis Cilostazol combined with P2Y12 receptor inhibitors could be used as a substitute antiplatelet regimen for aspirin‐intolerant patients undergoing percutaneous coronary stent implantation. Methods In this multicenter prospective cohort trial, patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary stent implantation were assigned to the cilostazol group (cilostazol plus P2Y12 receptor inhibitors), based on aspirin intolerance criteria, or the aspirin group (aspirin plus P2Y12 receptor inhibitors). Platelet PAC‐1, CD62p, and vasodilator‐stimulated phosphoprotein phosphorylation (VASP‐P) were detected by flow cytometry. The primary endpoints were major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) including all‐cause death, acute myocardial infarction, emerging arrhythmia, nonfatal stroke, and heart failure. The secondary endpoints were the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) bleeding events. Results One hundred and fifty‐four aspirin‐intolerant percutaneous coronary stent implantation patients and 154 matched aspirin‐tolerant patients from a total of 2059 percutaneous coronary stent implantation patients were enrolled. The relative activation level of PAC‐1, CD62p, and platelet reaction index reflected by the VASP‐P test were similar in the two groups (p > .05). After 12 months of follow‐up, the incidence of all‐cause death was 1.9% in the cilostazol group and 1.3% in the aspirin group (risk ratio [RR], 1.500; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.254–8.852; p = 1.000); the incidence of acute myocardial infarction was 0.6% in the cilostazol group and 1.3% in the aspirin group (RR, 0.500; 95% CI, 0.046–5.457; p = 1.000). No significant difference was seen in other MACCE events, or in any types of BARC bleeding events. Conclusions Cilostazol combined with P2Y12 inhibitors was not inferior to aspirin‐based standard therapy and could be used as a reasonable substitute antiplatelet regimen for aspirin‐intolerant patients undergoing percutaneous coronary stent implantation, but again with limitations, which required a larger sample and longer follow‐up to confirm its efficacy.

Abstract
AIMS Cilostazol (CLS) has shown antidepressant effect in cardiovascular patients, post-stroke depression, and animal models through its neurotrophic and antiinflammatory activities. Consequently, we aimed to investigate its safety and efficacy in patients with MDD by conducting double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled pilot study. METHODS 80 participants with MDD (DSM-IV criteria) and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) score >20 were treated with CLS 50 mg or placebo twice daily plus escitalopram (ESC) 20 mg once daily for six weeks. Patients were evaluated by HDRS scores (weeks 0, 2, 4, and 6). Serum levels of CREB1, BDNF, 5-HT, TNF-α, NF- κB, and FAM19A5 were assessed pre- and post-treatment. RESULTS Co-administration of CLS had markedly decreased HDRS score at all-time points compared to the placebo group (p < 0.001). Early improvement, response, and remission rates after 6 weeks were significantly higher in the CLS group (90%, 90%, 80%, respectively) than in the placebo group (25%, 65%, 50% respectively) (p < 0.001). Moreover, the CLS group was superior to the placebo group in modulation of the measured neurotrophic and inflammatory biomarkers. CONCLUSION CLS is safe and effective short-term adjunctive therapy in patients with MDD with no other comorbid conditions. Trial registration ID:NCT04069819.

Abstract
Nanosizing is an approach to improve the dissolution rate of poorly soluble drugs. The first aim of this work was to develop nanosuspension of cilostazol with liquid antisolvent precipitation (LASP) and its combination with ultrasound. Second, to systematically study the effect of bottom-up processing factors on precipitated particles’ size and identify the optimal settings for the best reduction. After solvent and stabilizer screening, in-depth process characterization and optimization was performed using Design of Experiments. The work discusses the influence of critical factors found with statistical analysis: feed concentration, stabilizer amount, stirring speed and ultrasound energy governed by time and amplitude. LASP alone only generated particle size of a few microns, but combination with ultrasound was successful in nanosizing (d10 = 0.06, d50 = 0.33, d90 = 1.45 µm). Micro- and nanosuspension’s stability, particle morphology and solid state were studied. Nanosuspension displayed higher apparent solubility than equilibrium and superior dissolution rate over coarse cilostazol and microsuspension. A bottom-up method of precipitation-sonication was demonstrated to be a successful approach to improve the dissolution characteristics of poorly soluble, BCS class II drug cilostazol by reducing its particle size below micron scale, while retaining nanosuspension stability and unchanged crystalline form.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral small vessel disease is characterized by progressive cerebral white matter changes (WMCs). This study aimed to compare the effects of cilostazol and aspirin on changes in WMC volume in patients with cerebral small vessel disease. METHODS In a multicenter, double-blind, randomized controlled trial, participants with moderate or severe WMCs and at least one lacunar infarction detected on brain magnetic resonance imaging were randomly assigned to the cilostazol and aspirin groups in a 1:1 ratio. Cilostazol slow release (200 mg) or aspirin (100 mg) capsules were administered once daily for 2 years. The primary outcome was the change in WMC volume on magnetic resonance images from baseline to 2 years. Secondary imaging outcomes include changes in the number of lacunes or cerebral microbleeds, fractional anisotropy, and mean diffusivity on diffusion tensor images, and brain atrophy. Secondary clinical outcomes include all ischemic strokes, all ischemic vascular events, and changes in cognition, motor function, mood, urinary symptoms, and disability. RESULTS Between July 2013 and August 2016, 256 participants were randomly assigned to the cilostazol (n=127) and aspirin (n=129) groups. Over 2 years, the percentage of WMC volume to total WM volume and the percentage of WMC volume to intracranial volume increased in both groups, but neither analysis showed significant differences between the groups. The peak height of the mean diffusivity histogram in normal-appearing WMs was significantly reduced in the aspirin group compared with the cilostazol group. Cilostazol significantly reduced the risk of ischemic vascular event compared with aspirin (0.5 versus 4.5 cases per 100 person-years; hazard ratio, 0.11 [95% CI, 0.02-0.89]). CONCLUSIONS There was no significant difference between the effects of cilostazol and aspirin on WMC progression in patients with cerebral small vessel disease.

Abstract
This study investigated the impact of polymorphisms of metabolic enzymes on plasma concentrations of cilostazol and its metabolites, and the influence of the plasma concentrations and polymorphisms on the cardiovascular side effects in 30 patients with cerebral infarction. Plasma concentrations of cilostazol and its active metabolites, and CYP3A5*3 and CYP2C19*2 and *3 genotypes were determined. The median plasma concentration/dose ratio of OPC-13213, an active metabolite by CYP3A5 and CYP2C19, was slightly higher and the median plasma concentration rate of cilostazol to OPC-13015, another active metabolite by CYP3A4, was significantly lower in CYP3A5*1 carriers than in *1 non-carriers (p = 0.082 and p = 0.002, respectively). The CYP2C19 genotype did not affect the pharmacokinetics of cilostazol. A correlation was observed between changes in pulse rate from the baseline and plasma concentrations of cilostazol (R = 0.539, p = 0.002), OPC-13015 (R = 0.396, p = 0.030) and OPC-13213 (R = 0.383, p = 0.037). A multiple regression model, consisting of factors of the plasma concentration of OPC-13015, levels of blood urea nitrogen, and pulse rate at the start of the therapy explained 55.5% of the interindividual variability of the changes in pulse rate. These results suggest that plasma concentrations of cilostazol and its metabolites are affected by CYP3A5 genotypes, and plasma concentration of OPC-13015, blood urea nitrogen, and pulse rate at the start of therapy may be predictive markers of cardiovascular side effects of cilostazol in patients with cerebral infarction.

Abstract
Cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase III inhibitor, has vasodilating and antiplatelet properties with a low rate of bleeding complications. It has been used over the past 25 years for improving intermittent claudication in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Cilostazol also has demonstrated efficacy in patients undergoing percutaneous revascularization procedures for both PAD and coronary artery disease. In addition to its antithrombotic and vasodilating actions, cilostazol also inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation via phosphodiesterase III inhibition, thus mitigating restenosis. Accumulated evidence has shown that cilostazol, due to its "pleiotropic" effects, is a useful, albeit underutilized, agent for both coronary artery disease and PAD. It is also potentially useful after ischemic stroke and is an alternative in those who are allergic or intolerant to classical antithrombotic agents (eg, aspirin or clopidogrel). These issues are herein reviewed together with the pharmacology and pharmacodynamics of cilostazol. Large studies and meta-analyses are presented and evaluated. Current guidelines are also discussed, and the spectrum of cilostazol's actions and therapeutic applications are illustrated.

Abstract
Background Long-term benefit of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) over single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) for the prevention of recurrent stroke has not been established in patients with intracranial arterial stenosis. We compared the efficacy and safety of DAPT with cilostazol and clopidogrel or aspirin to those of SAPT with clopidogrel or aspirin in patients with intracranial arterial stenosis, who were recruited to the Cilostazol Stroke Prevention Study for Antiplatelet Combination trial, a randomized controlled trial in high-risk Japanese patients with ischemic stroke. Methods and Results We compared the vascular and hemorrhagic events between DAPT and SAPT in patients with ischemic stroke and symptomatic or asymptomatic intracranial arterial stenosis of at least 50% in a major intracranial artery. Patients were placed in two groups: 275 were assigned to receive DAPT and 272 patients SAPT. The risks of ischemic stroke (hazard ratio [HR], 0.47; 95% CI, 0.23-0.95); and composite of stroke, myocardial infarction, and vascular death (HR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.26-0.91) were lower in DAPT than SAPT, whereas the risk of severe or life-threatening bleeding (HR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.12-4.30) did not differ between the 2 treatment groups. Conclusions DAPT using cilostazol was superior to SAPT with clopidogrel or aspirin for the prevention of recurrent stroke and vascular events without increasing bleeding risk among patients with intracranial arterial stenosis after stroke.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is categorized as a neurodevelopmental disorder, presenting with a variety of aetiological and phenotypical features. Inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase-3 (PDE3) with cilostazol is known to produce beneficial effects in several brain disorders. The pharmacological outcome of cilostazol administration was investigated in prenatal valproic acid (VPA)-induced ASD deficits in albino Wistar rats. METHODS Cilostazol was administered in two doses (30/60 mg/kg) to male rats born of females administered with VPA on gestational day 12. Behavioural assays on locomotion (open field), social interaction, repetitive behaviour (y-maze) and anxiety (elevated plus maze) were performed in all groups. Further, biochemical assessments of markers associated with neuronal function (BDNF, pCREB), inflammation (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10) and oxidative stress were carried out in frontal cortex, hippocampus, striatum and cerebellum. KEY FINDINGS The cilostazol regimen, attenuated prenatal VPA exposure associated hyperlocomotion, social interaction deficits, repetitive behavior, and anxiety. Further, biochemical markers such as BDNF, pCREB, IL-10 and GSH were found to be significantly increased contrary to markers such as TNF-α, IL-6 and TBARS in the assessed brain regions. CONCLUSIONS Cilostazol rectified core behavioural traits while producing significant changes to biochemistry in the brain, suggesting benefits of cilostazol administration in experimental models of ASD.

Abstract
High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HOPR) is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We randomised post-PCI patients with HOPR after 5 days of standard dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to intensified therapy with aspirin 100 mg once daily in combination with either clopidogrel 150 mg once daily, clopidogrel 75 mg once daily plus cilostazol 100 mg twice daily, ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily, or standard therapy with clopidogrel 75 mg once daily (STD) for 1 month, after which all patients were switched to standard DAPT for a further 11 months. The primary outcome was residual HOPR rate at 1 month. We screened 1724 patients with light transmission aggregation studies and randomised 434 with HOPR. At 1 month the proportion of patients with persistent HOPR was significantly lower in the intensified therapy groups compared with STD group. Compared to the group receiving STD therapy, those receiving intensified therapy had significantly lower rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) at both 1 month and 12 months with no significant increase in bleeding. In patients with post-PCI HOPR, 1 month of intensified antiplatelet therapy provides greater platelet inhibition and improves outcomes without increasing bleeding.

Abstract
Cilostazol was suggested to be beneficial to retard in-stent atherosclerosis and prevent stent thrombosis. However, the mechanisms responsible for the beneficial effects of cilostazol are not fully understood. In this study, we attempted to verify the mechanism of the antithrombotic effect of cilostazol. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured with various concentrations of cilostazol to verify its impact on endothelial cells. KLF2, silent information regulator transcript-1 (SIRT1), endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), and endothelial thrombomodulin (TM) expression levels were examined. We found cilostazol significantly activated KLF2 expression and KLF2-related endothelial function, including eNOS activation, Nitric oxide (NO) production, and TM secretion. The activation was regulated by SIRT1, which was also stimulated by cilostazol. These findings suggest that cilostazol may be capable of an antithrombotic and vasculoprotective effect in endothelial cells.
