  • Blockade of adenosine diphosphate receptors P2Y(12) and P2Y(1) is required to inhibit platelet aggregation in whole blood under flow. Abstract Text:

    Using heparinized whole blood and flow conditions, it was shown that adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) receptors P2Y(12) and P2Y(1) are both important in direct shear-induced platelet aggregation and platelet aggregation subsequent to initial adhesion onto von Willebrand factor (vWf)-collagen. In the viscometer, whole blood was subjected to shear rates of 750, 1500, and 3000 s(-1) for 30 seconds at room temperature. The extent of aggregation was determined by flow cytometry. The P2Y(12) antagonist AR-C69 931MX (ARMX) reduced shear-induced aggregation at these rates by 56%, 54%, and 16%, respectively, compared to control samples. Adenosine 3',5'-diphosphate (A3P5P; P2Y(1) antagonist) inhibited shear-induced aggregation by 40%, 30% and 29%, respectively, compared to control samples. Blockade of both ADP receptors at 3000 s(-1) with ARMX plus A3P5P further reduced the platelet aggregation by 41% compared to the addition of ARMX alone (57% compared to control samples). Using a parallel-plate flow chamber, whole blood was perfused over bovine collagen type 1 at a wall shear rate of 3000 s(-1) for 60 seconds. Platelet deposition was quantified with epifluorescence video microscopy and digital image processing. Blockade of P2Y(12) alone or blockade of P2Y(1) alone did not reduce thrombus formation on vWf-collagen. In contrast, blockade of both P2Y(12) and P2Y(1) reduced platelet deposition by 72%. These results indicate that combinations of antagonists of the ADP receptors P2Y(12) and P2Y(1) are effective inhibitors of direct shear-induced platelet aggregation and of platelet aggregation subsequent to initial adhesion under flow conditions. Inhibitors of these pathways are potentially useful as antiarterial thrombotic agents.
