Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Prasugrel is a novel platelet inhibitor for acute coronary syndromes planned for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Prasugrel is a prodrug form of the platelet purinergic P2Y12 receptor antagonist R-99224. Prasugrel (0.3 and 3 mg/kg) inhibits ex vivo washed platelet aggregation in rat platelet rich-plasma. In vivo, prasugrel prevents thrombus formation (ED50 = 0.68 mg/kg) and increases tail bleeding time in rats. Formulations containing prasugrel have been used in the prevention of blood clots.

Product Data
Biological target:
Prasugrel is an orally active and potent P2Y12 receptor antagonist, and inhibits ADP-induced platelet aggregation.
In vitro activity:
Prasugrel is a novel orally active thienopyridine prodrug with potent and long-lasting antiplatelet effects. Platelet inhibition reflects inhibition of P2Y(12) receptors by its active metabolite (AM). Previous studies have shown that the antiplatelet potency of prasugrel is at least 10 times higher than that of clopidogrel in rats and humans, but the mechanism of its higher potency has not yet been fully elucidated. In rat platelets, prasugrel AM inhibited in vitro platelet aggregation induced by adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) (10 microm) with an IC(50) value of 1.8 microm. Reference: J Thromb Haemost. 2007 Jul;5(7):1545-51. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17456192/
In vivo activity:
In the present study, effects of prasugrel on ex vivo platelet aggregation were examined in wild type (WT) and P2Y(12)(-/-) mice. In WT mice, prasugrel showed platelet inhibition that was 8.2 times more potent than clopidogrel. In P2Y(12)(-/-) mice, ADP induced platelet aggregation was minimal, and its extent was similar to that in prasugrel-treated WT mice. In addition, no further inhibition of platelet aggregation was observed after administration of prasugrel to P2Y(12)(-/-) mice. Furthermore, prasugrel-treated WT mice showed similar aggregation patterns using collagen- and murine PAR-4 agonist peptide to those of P2Y(12)(-/-) mice treated with vehicle or prasugrel.
