Nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase-1 (NTPDase1), like other ectonucleotidases, controls extracellular nucleotide levels and consequently their (patho)physiological responses such as in thrombosis, inflammation, and cancer. Selective NTPDase1 inhibitors would therefore be very useful. We previously observed that ticlopidine in its prodrug form, which does not affect P2 receptor activity, inhibited the recombinant form of human NTPDase1 ( =14M). Here we tested whether ticlopidine can be used as a selective inhibitor of NTPDase1. We confirmed that ticlopidine inhibits NTPDase1 in different forms and in different assays. The ADPase activity of intact HUVEC as well as of COS-7 cells transfected with human NTPDase1 was strongly inhibited by 100 M ticlopidine, 99 and 86%, respectively.

  • Prevention of Atherothrombotic Events in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus: from Antithrombotic Therapies to New-Generation Glucose-Lowering Drugs

This situation might be caused, at least in part, by the prothrombotic status observed in patients with diabetes. Therefore, contemporary antithrombotic strategies, including more potent agents or drug combinations, might provide greater clinical benefit in patients with diabetes than in those without diabetes. In this Consensus Statement, our Working Group explores the mechanisms of platelet and coagulation activity , the current debate on antiplatelet therapy in primary cardiovascular disease prevention, and the benefit of various antithrombotic approaches in secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease in patients with diabetes. While acknowledging that current data are often derived from underpowered, observational studies or subgroup analyses of larger trials, we propose

  • Inverse Agonism of SQ 29,548 and Ramatroban on Thromboxane A2 Receptor
    Inverse Agonism of SQ 29,548 and Ramatroban on Thromboxane A2 Receptor Raja Chakraborty1,3, Rajinder P. Bhullar1, Shyamala Dakshinamurti2,3, John Hwa4, Prashen Chelikani1,2,3* 1 Department of Oral Biology, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, 2 Departments of Pediatrics, Physiology, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, 3 Biology of Breathing Group- Manitoba Institute of Child Health, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, 4 Department of Internal Medicine (Cardiology), Cardiovascular Research Center, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut, United States of America Abstract G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) show some level of basal activity even in the absence of an agonist, a phenomenon referred to as constitutive activity. Such constitutive activity in GPCRs is known to have important pathophysiological roles in human disease. The thromboxane A2 receptor (TP) is a GPCR that promotes thrombosis in response to binding of the prostanoid, thromboxane A2. TP dysfunction is widely implicated in pathophysiological conditions such as bleeding disorders, hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Recently, we reported the characterization of a few constitutively active mutants (CAMs) in TP, including a genetic variant A160T. Using these CAMs as reporters, we now test the inverse agonist properties of known antagonists of TP, SQ 29,548, Ramatroban, L-670596 and Diclofenac, in HEK293T cells. Interestingly, SQ 29,548 reduced the basal activity of both, WT-TP and the CAMs while Ramatroban was able to reduce the basal activity of only the CAMs. Diclofenac and L-670596 showed no statistically significant reduction in basal activity of WT-TP or CAMs. To investigate the role of these compounds on human platelet function, we tested their effects on human megakaryocyte based system for platelet activation.

The geometries and energies of most stable conformers of these drugs have been computed at the Becke3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of density functional theory. Computed dissociation constants show that the active metabolites of prodrugs (ticlopidine, clopidogrel and prasugrel) and drugs elinogrel and cangrelor are completely ionized at pH 7.4. Both ticagrelor and its active metabolite are present at pH = 7.4 in neutral undissociated form. The thienopyridine prodrugs ticlopidine, clopidogrel and prasugrel are lipophilic and insoluble in water. Their lipophilicity is very high (about 2.5–3.5 logP values). The polar surface area, with regard to the structurally-heterogeneous character of these antiplatelet drugs, is from very large interval of values of 3–255 Å2.

  • Use of Antiplatelet Therapies During Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Acute Myocardial Infarction
    REVIEW Use of antiplatelet therapies during primary percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction Inhibition of platelet function is necessary to achieve successful and long-lasting primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute myocardial infarction. For many years, antiplatelet therapy in the setting of primary PCI consisted of two drugs that inhibit platelet activation (aspirin and clopidogrel) and an intravenous blocker of platelet aggregation (abciximab). The development of new, more potent oral antiplatelet drugs (prasugrel and ticagrelor) as well as new data on clopidogrel dosing regimens limited the use of abciximab after pretreatment with aspirin and clopidogrel. Thus, intracoronary administration of abciximab and the use of small molecule glycoprotein IIb/IIIa blockers (tirofiban or eptifibatide) challenge the contemporary schemes of antiplatelet treatment in primary PCI. We review recently published data with particular attention on patients and drug characteristics and propose an update of existing recommendations. 1 KEYWORDS: acute myocardial infarction n antiplatelet therapy n aspirin n cilostazol Łukasz A Małek n clopidogrel n glycoprotein IIb/IIIa blockers n prasugrel n primary percutaneous & Adam Witkowski†1 coronary intervention n ticagrelor 1Department of Interventional Cardiology & Angiology, Institute of Cardiology, Alpejska 42, Rupture of the vulnerable atherosclerotic many years, antiplatelet therapy in the setting 04‑628 Warsaw, Poland plaque in the coronary artery wall leading of primary PCI included two oral antiplate- †Author for correspondence: Tel.: +48 22 343 4127 to activation and aggregation of platelets to let drugs, which irreversibly block platelet Fax: +48 22 613 3819 form an artery occluding thrombus is the most activation (aspirin and clopidogrel) together [email protected] frequent cause of acute myocardial infarc- with an inhibition of platelet aggregation by tion (AMI) [1–3].
