Abstract
BACKGROUND Mailuo Shutong Pills (MLST) have displayed pharmacological activity against thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO). However, the active ingredients and therapeutic mechanism of MLST against TAO remained to be further clarified. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to explore the active components of MLST and their synergistic mechanism against TAO by integrating pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacometabolomics (PM). METHODS TAO model rats were established by sodium laurate solution. Firstly, the efficacy of MLST was evaluated by gangrene score, blood flow velocity, and hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining. Secondly, PK research was conducted on bioavailable components to characterize their dynamic behaviors under TAO. Thirdly, multiple plasma and urine metabolic biomarkers for sodium laurate-induced TAO rats were found by untargeted metabolomics, and then variations in TAO-altered metabolites following MLST treatment were analyzed utilizing multivariate and bioinformatic analysis. Additionally, metabolic pathway analysis was performed using MetaboAnalyst. Finally, the dynamic link between absorbed MLST-compounds and TAO-associated endogenous metabolites was established by correlation analysis. RESULTS MLST significantly alleviated gangrene symptoms by improving the infiltration of inflammatory cells and blood supply in TAO rats. Significant differences in metabolic profiles were found in 17 differential metabolites in plasma and 24 in urine between Sham and TAO rats. The 10 bioavailable MLST-compounds, such as chlorogenic acid and paeoniflorin, showed positive or negative correlations with various TAO-altered metabolites related to glutamate metabolism, histidine metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism and so on. CONCLUSION This study originally investigated the dynamic interaction between MLST and the biosystem, providing unique insight for disclosing the active components of MLST and their synergistic mechanisms against TAO, which also shed light on new therapeutic targets for TAO and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The root of Salvia miltiorrhiza f. alba (RSMA) (Lamiaceae) is used for the treatment of patients with thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) in traditional Chinese medicine. Previously, a mixture of phenolic acids extracted from RSMA has shown significant protective effects on TAO rats. PURPOSE This study investigates the inhibitory effects of salvianolic acid B on TAO induced by sodium laurate injection in rats to explore the effective constituents of RSMA in TAO treatment. METHODS TAO rats were developed using injected sodium laurate. After treatment with ligustrazine hydrochloride (15 mg/kg) and various doses of salvianolic acid B (10, 20, 40 mg/kg) by tail intravenous injection, levels of thromboxane B2 (TXB2), 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α (6-keto-PGF1α) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) in plasma were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The right femoral arteries were studied by hematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemical analysis to determine pathological changes and overexpression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the femoral artery walls of TAO rats. RESULTS Salvianolic acid B significantly decreased the expressions of TXB2 and ET-1 and increased the expression of 6-keto-PGF1α in plasma, and significantly inhibited the overexpression of TNF-α and iNOS in the femoral artery walls of TAO rats at medium and high doses. CONCLUSION Salvianolic acid B has a protective effect on TAO rats. The mechanism may involve inhibition of thrombosis and TAO-associated inflammatory responses, which may explain the success of RSMA treatment of TAO in humans in traditional Chinese medical practice. Hence, it may be a potential drug for TAO treatment in conventional medicine.

Abstract
The marijuana arteriopathy should be considered in young patients with peripheral arterial disease with no risk factors for atherosclerosis. It was described for the first time in 1960 and since then there have been about 100 cases published in the literature. Although it tends to be considered as an independent entity of thromboangiitis obliterans or Leo Buerger's disease, in the light of the last findings it is possible to consider it within the spectrum of the latter. We present two cases of young patients with peripheral vascular disease associated with marijuana use where other associated illnesses had been excluded and where the mainstay of treatment has been the cessation of marijuana consumption. It is essential to assess drug use in young patients presenting with peripheral arterial disease.

Abstract
Although 75 years have passed since Buerger's disease was described as a separate nosological, its etiology and pathogenesis are not sufficiently elucidated. According to many authors the disease origin is significantly connected to genetic and environmental factors. Exposure of some patients with special genotype, mainly HLA-A9 and HLA-B5, to environmental factors, mainly nicotine, may be the base of etiology and pathogenesis of Buerger's disease. Discovery of antielastin, anticollagen I and III antibodies, antinicotine and antivascular antigen antibodies in blood of patients, allowed to put forward a theory of immunological character of TO. In Buerger's disease, defined in recent years as an inactive collagenosis, immunological complexes, cell toxins developing during phagocytosis, found in smokers, constitute the main agents responsible for vascular wall damage. Disturbance of prostacyclin I2/thromboxane A2 balance and accelerated platelet aggregation cause spasm of arterioles and in effect lead to higher procoagulant readiness. Some adhesive molecules, for example P and L selectins, play an important role in vascular endothelium damage. Prostaglandin treatment induces an improvement of vascular wall (endothelium) status, and simultaneously improvement of tissue perfusion, expressed by a decrease of selectin and vWF concentrations and of the number of desquamated endothelial cells.

Abstract
A patient with a diagnosis of Buerger disease is described with peripheral limb ischemia and toe amputations, 2 recent small myocardial infarctions, and a long history of cigarette use. Peripheral angiography findings were incompatible with the clinical impression, and further workup revealed heavy recreational use of cocaine. A literature review of the clinical and pathologic manifestations of Buerger disease and of cocaine exposure shows them to have remarkable similarities. Based on our case observation and suggestive evidence from the literature, we propose that cocaine exposure may masquerade as Buerger disease, and further, that unrecognized cocaine exposure may underlie such cases, even including those originally described by Buerger in 1908.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We observed two cases of juvenile endarteritis which might suggest a possible link between Winiwarter-Buerger disease and cannabis-induced endarteritis. CASE REPORTS Our two patients were young men aged 18 and 20 years. Both developed acute distal ischemia of the lower or upper limbs with arteriographic evidence suggestive of Winiwarter-Buerger disease. Both smoked regularly but not excessively and both used cannabis regularly. In one case, the therapeutic response to withdrawal of cannabis was good. In the second, use of cannabis continued and arterial disease persisted. DISCUSSION The cause of Winiwarter-Buerger disease remains elusive although smoking is undoubtedly involved in the pathogenic mechanism. Our two cases recall the cannabis-induced endarteritis described in the sixties in Kif smokers in North Africa. The main clinical and radiographical features in this condition are the same as in Winiwarter-Buerger disease. CONCLUSION Winiwarter-Buerger disease and cannabis-induced endarteritis are 2 very similar conditions. The probably rare finding of juvenile endarteritis mimicking thromboangeitis obliterans should, in our opinion, be considered as a secondary and possibly toxic effect of cannabis.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between previous arsenic exposure and peripheral vascular disease after stopping consumption of high-arsenic artesian well water for more than two decades in blackfoot disease endemic villages in Taiwan. A total of 582 adults (263 men and 319 women, aged 52.6 +/- 10.6 years) living in these villages underwent Doppler ultrasound measurement of systolic pressures on bilateral ankle (posterior tibial and dorsal pedal) and brachial arteries and estimation for long-term arsenic exposure. The diagnosis of peripheral vascular disease was based on an ankle-brachial index (the ratio between ankle and brachial systolic pressures) <0.90 on either side. Three indices of arsenic exposure were estimated: (1) duration of living in blackfoot disease endemic villages; (2) duration of artesian well water consumption; and (3) cumulative arsenic exposure in mg/l-years based on the detailed history of residential addresses and artesian well water consumption and the arsenic concentration in artesian well water. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to assess the association between peripheral vascular disease and arsenic exposure. A dose-response relation was observed between the prevalence of peripheral vascular disease and the long-term arsenic exposure. The odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, cigarette smoking, serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels, diabetes mellitus and hypertension were 2.77 (0.84-9.14), and 4.28 (1.26-14.54) for those who had cumulative arsenic exposure of 0.1-19.9 and > or = 20.0 mg/l-years, respectively, compared with those who were not exposed. This study suggests a close relation between long-term arsenic exposure and peripheral vascular disease in blackfoot disease endemic villages in Taiwan after stopping consumption of artesian well water.
