P2Y12 Receptor Inhibitors in Acute Coronary Syndromes: From the Research Laboratory to the Clinic and Vice Versa

Abstract: The P2Y12 receptor plays a pivotal role in platelet activation and aggregation through a complex cascade of actions. Laboratory and clinical data have convincingly shown the benefit of P2Y12 inhibition combined with aspirin in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS)/undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Newer agents - like prasugrel, ticagrelor, and cangrelor - provide more consistent, faster, and stronger platelet inhibition than clopidogrel. In large clinical trials n… Show more

“…ADP receptors may be important therapeutic targets. Moreover ADP receptor antagonists are in wide clinical use [11][12][13][16][17][18]. However, several limitations of known synthetic ADP receptors antagonist have recently been discussed including inter-patient variability in antiplatelet effects and a relatively slow onset of action [19][20][21].…”

“…The activated platelets then release adenosine diphosphate (ADP) from their dense granules, which activates surrounding platelets via the G-protein coupled receptors, P2Y1 and P2Y12 [120]. Though a weak platelet agonist itself, ADP amplifies the platelet response induced by stronger agonists (collagen and vWF) [121]. The P2Y1 receptor mediates cytoplasmic calcium mobilization, which plays a major role in platelet activation and stabilization.…”

“…By blocking this receptor, prasugrel modulates "platelet procoagulant activity, thrombin generation, P-selectin expression, soluble CD40L, and inflammation marker release." 9 Additionally, prasugrel shows increased potency, faster onset, and more consistent action across patients compared with clopidogrel. 9 The TRITON-TIMI 38 (Trial to Assess Improvement in Therapeutic Outcomes by Optimizing Platelet Inhibition with Prasugrel -Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction-38) compared the efficacy and safety of prasugrel and clopidogrel in combination with aspirin.…”
