- Abstract
In recent years, the incidence and mortality rates of cardiovascular diseases in China have kept rising, with no significant reduction in disease burden observed. Percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) is an effective approach for treating coronary artery disease. Drug-eluting stents and drug-coated balloons are currently the most common PCI devices used in clinical practice. However, challenges with restenosis and late-stage thrombotic events persist. Inhibiting the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells while enhancing endothelial cell activity is crucial for reducing restenosis and preventing thrombosis, and it remains a challenge in research. The active compounds and extracts of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), particularly the combinations of active compounds in coatings, possess multi-target potential and serve as a supplement to coatings prepared from synthetic compounds. This review elucidates the application of TCM active compounds(such as arsenic trioxide, paclitaxel, hirudin, tetramethylpyrazine, emodin, oxymatrine, and curcumin), combinations of TCM active compounds(paclitaxel/hirudin, geniposide/baicalin), and TCM extracts(such as Curcumae Rhizoma extract and Tripterygium hypoglaucum extract) in the coatings for PCI devices in recent years. Furthermore, this review expounds the current challenges and future prospects in this field, giving insights into the innovation of PCI devices.
