Ticagrelor mitigates ischaemia–reperfusion induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in healthy young males – a randomized, single‐blinded study

Abstract

Our data indicate that ticagrelor treatment exerts a greater vascular salutary effect than clopidogrel during reperfusion after an acute vascular occlusion. IR-induced vascular injury cannot be prevented completely by administration of these antiplatelet agents at standard clinical doses.
