Description:

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

Clopidogrel (INN) is an oral, thienopyridine-class antiplatelet agent used to inhibit blood clots in coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and to prevent myocardial infarction (heart attack) and stroke. It is marketed by Bristol-Myers Squibb and Sanofi under the trade name Plavix. The drug works by irreversibly inhibiting a receptor called P2Y12, an adenosine diphosphate (ADP) chemoreceptor on platelet cell membranes. Clopidogrel acts by inhibiting the ADP receptor on platelet cell membranes. It is a prodrug, which requires CYP2C19 for its activation.

More Info
Biological target:
Clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate is an antiplatelet agent which works by blocking platelets from sticking together and prevents them from forming harmful clots.
In vitro activity:
DNA fragmentation was found to be increased as a response to 7.5 µM, 40 µM and 75 µM clopidogrel treatment compared to non-treated control groups in AML-12 hepatocytes (p<0.01, p<0.001, p<0.01 respectively) and 3T3-L1 adipocytes (p<0.001, p<0.001 and p<0.001 respectively). DNA damage levels as a response to clopidogrel treatment was found to be higher in 3T3-L1 adipocytes than AML-12 hepatocytes. Reference: Curr Drug Saf. 2021 Jan 6. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33413066/
In vivo activity:
The effects of intravenous ADP infusions of 2-8mg/kg/hour were examined in anesthetized Wistar rats that were untreated or chronically pretreated with clopidogrel, 20mg/kg/24hours, a selective P2Y12-R antagonist. ADP induced a gradual, dose-dependent 15% decrease of mean arterial pressure, a sustained increase of renal blood flow and a 25% decrease in renal vascular resistance. Clopidogrel pretreatment attenuated the mean arterial pressure decrease, and did not significantly alter renal blood flow or renal vascular resistance.
