Resistance to aspirin is increased by ST-elevation myocardial infarction and correlates with adenosine diphosphate levels

Abstract: Background: To be fully activated platelets are dependent on two positive feedback loops; the formation of thromboxane A 2 by cyclooxygenase in the platelets and the release of ADP. We wanted to evaluate the effect of aspirin on platelet function in patients with acute coronary syndromes and we hypothesized that increased levels of ADP in patients with acute coronary syndromes could contribute to aspirin resistance.

“…Alternatively, aspirin resistance has been defined by incomplete suppression of urinary 11-dhTxB 2 excretion for which platelet response to ADP may be important [6, 8, 9]. In our study measurement of urinary 11-dhTxB 2 excretion, a marker for inhibition of thromboxane A 2 production, does not distinguish between those with complete or incomplete inhibition of platelet aggregation [1, 2].…”

“…Combination aspirin and clopidogrel is expected to cause inhibition of platelet aggregation through complementary mechanisms of inhibition of cyclooxygenase-dependent and adenosine-diphosphate (ADP)-dependent platelet aggregation [8,9,10]. Aspirin also inhibits platelet recruitment as measured ex vivo through the proaggregatory activity of cell-free releasates from activated platelets [7].…”

“…Lipids were separated on a Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C8 column, 4. Measurement of Plasma Nucleotide Concentrations-Plasma levels of ATP, ADP, and adenosine were measured using minor adaptations of previously published procedures (35,36). In brief, plasma samples were collected directly into stop solution, deproteinated by extraction with perchloric acid, then neutralized by extraction with a mixture of tri-n-octylamine and Freon.…”

“…High on-treatment platelet reactivity is linked to worse outcomes for both STEMI and NSTEMI patients undergoing procedures [17]. Platelet reactivity and anti-platelet resistance is suggested to be higher in STEMI patients than NSTEMI patients [18-20]. These differences in platelet reactivity and disease progression may result from gene expression differences between STEMI and NSTEMI cases.…”
