The 5-hydroxytryptamine2A receptor antagonist sarpogrelate hydrochloride exerts its effect not only by inhibition of platelet aggregation, but also by some pleiotropic effects. We have reported that a low serum lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mass level reflects insulin resistance and may be a risk factor for atherosclerotic diseases. The aim of this prospective study was to clarify the effect of sarpogrelate on serum LPL mass and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) as a marker related to arterial stiffness. Thirty-five type 2 diabetic patients (21 males and 14 females) with ankle brachial indices higher than 0.90 received sarpogrelate hydrochloride 300 mg/day for 6 months. Serum LPL mass and CAVI were measured during the study. After 6 months of sarpogrelate hydrochloride treatment, CAVI decreased significantly (10.11 +/- 0.92 to 9.87 +/- 0.97, P < 0.05) and serum LPL mass increased significantly (58.2 +/- 17.5 to 63.5 +/- 21.4, P < 0.05). A negative correlation between change in CAVI and change in serum LPL mass was observed (r = -0.34, P < 0.05). Multiple regression analysis identified a change in serum LPL mass as a significant independent predictor for change in CAVI. We demonstrated that sarpogrelate hydrochloride decreased CAVI accompanied by increased serum LPL mass in type 2 diabetic patients. This result suggests that sarpogrelate hydrochloride improves arterial stiffness and is a potential treatment for diabetic angiopathy.
