The synthetic methods used recently in this laboratory to prepare a variety of novel nitric oxide (NO)-releasing hydrophobic polymers are reviewed. Nitric oxide is a well known inhibitor of platelet adhesion and activation. Thus, such NO release polymers have potential applications as thromboresistant coatings for a large number of blood-contacting biomedical devices (e.g., in vivo sensors, arteriovenous grafts, stents, catheters, extracorporeal circuits). The approaches taken to prepare NO releasing poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), silicone rubber (SR), polymethacrylate (PM), and polyurethane (PU) materials are grouped into three categories: (1) dispersion/doping of discrete diazenium-diolated molecules within the polymeric films; (2) chemical derivatization of polymeric filler microparticles (e.g., silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide) to possess NO release chemistry and then their dispersion within the hydrophobic polymers; and (3) covalent attachment of NO release moieties to polymer backbones. Specific chemical examples of each of these approaches are summarized and the advantages and disadvantages of each are discussed. Other related work in the field of NO release polymers is also cited. It is further shown that several of the NO-releasing polymeric materials already prepared exhibit the expected improved thromboresistivity when tested in vivo using appropriate animal models.
