    摘要: A multi-step method of forming a coating on a substrate, such as a stent or graft, is disclosed. The steps of the method include treating the surface with a plasma formed at or near atmospheric pressure to form one or more active species on the surface until a desired surface density of the active species is formed, and exposing the treated surface to a selected gas or liquid under conditions effective to convert the active species to a stable functional group. The exposed surface surface may be contacted with a surface-modifying group under conditions effective to covalently attach the surface-modifying group to the functional group. Also disclosed is a substrate having a bioactive/biocompatible coating and/or a drug-releasable coating prepared by the method.

    摘要: The invention provides a method of causing the degradation of fibrin(ogen) (i.e., fibrin, fibrinogen, and related substances) by means of a fibrinolytic matrix metalloproteinase, preferably an MT1-MMP. The method of the invention can be performed in vitro to provide diagnostic information characterizing fibrin(ogen) and fibrinolytic physiology. The method can also be performed in vivo as a method of thrombolytic therapy in which a fibrinolytic matrix metalloproteinase is administered to a subject to degrade thrombus in situ. The fibrinolytic matrix metalloproteinase can be administered in conjunction with other active agents, preferably with agents having thrombolytic activity to improve thrombolytic and fibrinolytic therapy. The invention further provides compositions containing a fibrinolytic matrix metalloproteinase for the performance of fibrinolytic or thrombolytic procedures. Also provided are kits that include a fibrinolytic matrix metalloproteinase for performing fibrinolytic or thrombolytic procedures.

    摘要: A method for making a biocompatible medical article, and preferably, a blood compatible medical article, through the use of a copolymer coating. The copolymer coating is synthesized using methacrylate or acrylate monomers with a functional group (primary amino group) for subsequent attachment of a biomolecule such as heparin. Synthesis of the copolymer coating is carried out using the proper proportion of hydrophobic monomer/hydrophilic monomer/functional monomer in order to optimize the solubility of the copolymer in alcohol, its insolubility in water (before and after heparin coupling), the heparin coupling efficacy and heparin bioactivity. Once the copolymer coating is fashioned, a medical article is coated with it. The coating is thereafter dried and the biomolecule, such as heparin, attached. In such a manner the present invention provides for a method for making a biocompatible medical article, and preferably, a blood compatible medical article.

    摘要: A medical device has a biocompatible coating made by reacting a reactive polysiloxane, an acetoxysilane crosslinking agent, a reinforcing silica and a metal catalyst. Such devices cause decreased reactions when they come into contact with a human or animal body or its blood, fluids or other biological membranes.
