Safety of Perioperative Aprotinin Administration During Isolated Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery: Insights From the ART (Arterial Revascularization Trial) [PDF]
BackgroundThere is still uncertainty about the safety of aprotinin for coronary artery bypass graft surgery. The ART (Arterial Revascularization Trial) was designed to compare survival after bilateral versus single internal thoracic artery grafting. Many

Aprotinin may increase mortality in low and intermediate risk but not in high risk cardiac surgical patients compared to tranexamic acid and ε-aminocaproic acid -- a meta-analysis of randomised and observational trials of over 30.000 patients. [PDF]
BackgroundTo compare the effect of aprotinin with the effect of lysine analogues (tranexamic acid and ε-aminocaproic acid) on early mortality in three subgroups of patients: low, intermediate and high risk of cardiac surgery.Methods and findingsWe ...

Inhibitory effects of aprotinin on influenza A and B viruses in vitro and in vivo
Influenza viruses cause significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Long-term or frequent use of approved anti-influenza agents has resulted in drug-resistant strains, thereby necessitating the discovery of new drugs. In this study, we found aprotinin,

Binding of sodium dodecyl sulfate to aprotinin and its effect on the aprotinin molecule.
When the basic protease inhibitor aprotinin was treated with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), it showed an increased apparent molecular weight upon SDS gel electrophoresis. The amount of SDS bound to aprotinin was much lower than that bound to aprotinin treated with SDS and mercaptoethanol (ME).
