Background-Acute thrombogenicity and re-endothelialization represent clinically relevant end points pertaining to the safety of coronary stents, which have not been compared among biodegradable polymer-based drug-eluting metallic stents and fully bioabsorbable scaffolds to date.Methods and Results-We investigated comparative outcomes with respect to acute thrombogenicity and re-endothelialization among thin-strut biodegradable polymer metallic everolimus eluting stents (EES), thick-strut fully bioabsorbable EES, thick-strut biodegradable polymer metallic biolimus-eluting stents and control bare metal stents. An ex-vivo porcine arterio-venous shunt model was used to assess platelet aggregation, whereas a healthy rabbit model of iliofemoral stent implantation was used to assess re-endothelialization and inflammation. Confocal microscopy was used to detect fluorescently labeled antibody staining directed against CD61/CD42b for the identification of aggregated thrombocytes, CD14/PM-1, and RAM-11 for identification of neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages. Endothelial recovery was assessed by scanning electron microscopy, whereas CD31/PECAM-1 was used to confirm endothelial maturity. EES demonstrated significantly less acute thrombogenicity compared with bioabsorbable EES and biolimus-eluting stents. EES showed greater re-endothelialization at 28 days and reduced inflammatory cell adhesion of monocytes/macrophages at 14 days compared with bioabsorbable EES. Only bare metal stents showed complete re-endothelialization at 28 days.Conclusions-These outcomes indicate differential trends in thrombogenicity and vascular healing among contemporary stents used in clinical practice and suggest a need for long-term adjunct antithrombotic pharmacotherapy for bioabsorbable EES.
