This is in line with in vitro and ex vivo studies showing no interaction when cangrelor is administered on top of thienopyridines or ticagrelor and is associated with enhanced antiplatelet effects.

JACC Cardiovasc Interv. 2014;7:426-34 JACC Cardiovasc Interv. 2017;10:1374–1375 Expert Consensus Recommendations on Switching Bridging from oral to intravenous P2Y12 inhibitors • For both cardiac and noncardiac surgery, if withdrawal of P2Y12 inhibiting therapy is needed, clopidogrel and ticagrelor should be discontinued for 5 days and prasugrel for 7 days. • It is reasonable to start cangrelor bridging up to 3 to 4 days after prasugrel discontinuation and 2 to 3 days of clopidogrel and ticagrelor discontinuation. Platelet function testing may be considered to help guide timing of starting cangrelor infusion. • After surgery, regardless of bridging strategy, clopidogrel should be resumed with a loading dose (LD) as soon as oral administration is possible and the risk of severe bleeding is acceptable (prasugrel and ticagrelor administration should be discouraged). If the use of oral P2Y12-inhibiting therapy is not possible, postsurgery bridging with an intravenous agent should be considered. Angiolillo DJ et al.

  • Cangrelor Ameliorates CLP-Induced Pulmonary Injury in Sepsis By
    Luo et al. Eur J Med Res (2021) 26:70 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40001-021-00536-4 European Journal of Medical Research RESEARCH Open Access Cangrelor ameliorates CLP-induced pulmonary injury in sepsis by inhibiting GPR17 Qiancheng Luo1†, Rui Liu2†, Kaili Qu3, Guorong Liu1, Min Hang1, Guo Chen1, Lei Xu1, Qinqin Jin1 , Dongfeng Guo1* and Qi Kang1* Abstract Background: Sepsis is a common complication of severe wound injury and infection, with a very high mortality rate. The P2Y12 receptor inhibitor, cangrelor, is an antagonist anti-platelet drug. Methods: In our study, we investigated the protective mechanisms of cangrelor in CLP-induced pulmonary injury in sepsis, using C57BL/6 mouse models. Results: TdT-mediated dUTP Nick-End Labeling (TUNEL) and Masson staining showed that apoptosis and fbrosis in lungs were alleviated by cangrelor treatment. Cangrelor signifcantly promoted surface expression of CD40L on platelets and inhibited CLP-induced neutrophils in Bronchoalveolar lavage fuid (BALF) (p < 0.001). We also found that cangrelor decreased the infammatory response in the CLP mouse model and inhibited the expression of infamma- tory cytokines, IL-1β (p < 0.01), IL-6 (p < 0.05), and TNF-α (p < 0.001). Western blotting and RT-PCR showed that cangre- lor inhibited the increased levels of G-protein-coupled receptor 17 (GPR17) induced by CLP (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Our study indicated that cangrelor repressed the levels of GPR17, followed by a decrease in the infam- matory response and a rise of neutrophils in BALF, potentially reversing CLP-mediated pulmonary injury during sepsis. Keywords: Sepsis, Infammation, Cangrelor, Platelet, GPR17 Background Te lung is one of the initial target organ of the systemic Sepsis is a serious disease and will lead a high mortal- infammatory response caused by sepsis, leading to alve- ity rate of approximately 22% in all over the world [1].

What Prasugrel Mylan is and what it is used for Prasugrel Mylan, which contains the active substance prasugrel, belongs to a group of medicines called antiplatelet agents. Platelets are very small cell particles that circulate in the blood. When a blood vessel is damaged, for example if it is cut, platelets clump together to help form a blood clot (thrombus). Therefore, platelets are essential to help stop bleeding. If clots form within a hardened blood vessel such as an artery they can be very dangerous as they can cut off the blood supply, causing a heart attack (myocardial infarction), stroke or death.

The choice of a particular salt formulation is based on numerous factors such as API chemistry, intended dosage form, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. The appropriate salt can improve the overall therapeutic and pharmaceutical effects of an API. However, the incorrect salt form can have the opposite effect, and can be quite detrimental for overall drug development. This review summarizes several criteria for choosing the appropriate salt forms, along with the effects of salt forms on the pharmaceutical properties of APIs. In addition to a comprehensive review of the selection criteria, this review also gives a brief historic perspective of the salt selection processes.

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.

Lipid-based drug delivery systems, such as a nanostructured lipid carrier (NLC), are one of the systems emerging to improve the outcomes of tumor treatments. However, NLC can act as an intruder and cause an immune response. To overcome this limitation, biomimicry technology was introduced to decorate the surface of the nanoparticles with various cell membrane proteins. Here, we designed paclitaxel (PT)-loaded nanostructured lipid carrier (PT-NLC) with platelet (PLT) membrane protein because PLT is involved with angiogenesis and interaction of circulating tumor cells.

These mediators are massively released into hypoxic tissues. In the normal heart, GPR17 expression has been reported. By contrast, its role in myocardial ischaemia has not yet been assessed. In the present report, the expression of GPR17 was investigated in mice before and at early stages after myocardial infarction by using immunofluorescence, flow cytometry and RT-PCR. Before induction of ischaemia, results indicated the presence of the receptor in a pop- ulation of stromal cells expressing the stem-cell antigen-1 (Sca-1). At early stages after ligation of the coronary artery, the receptor was expressed in Sca-1+ cells, and cells stained with Isolectin-B4 and anti-CD45 antibody. GPR17+ cells also expressed mesenchymal marker CD44. GPR17 function was investigated in vitro in a Sca-1+/CD31À cell line derived from normal hearts.

The 17 appropriate salt can have positive effect on overall therapeutic and pharmaceutical effects of API. 18 However, the incorrect salt form can negatively affect the overall pharmaceutical outcomes of the 19 API. This review addresses various criteria for choosing appropriate salt form along with the effect 20 of salt forms on API’s pharmaceutical properties. In addition to comprehensive review of the 21 criteria, this review also gives a brief historic perspective of the salt selection process. 22 23 Keywords: Chemistry, salt, water solubility, routes of administration, physicochemical, stability, 24 degradation 25 1. Introduction 26 Salt of an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) often formed to achieve desirable formulation 27 properties.
