Platelets are important in atherothrombosis • After release from bone marrow, circulate for 7-10 days without interaction with vessel wall • If exposed to subendothelium, platelets activated
Platelet Adhesion Platelet Activation Platelet Aggregation Thrombotic Occlusion Unstable plaques activate platelets Plaque Fissure or Rupture
Adhesion mediated by vWF, agonists like ADP, secreted granules and TXA2 cause aggregation, exposed GPIIbIIIa receptors crosslink with fibrinogen to form platelet aggregates Adhesion Aggregation 1 3 Activation 2 Reproduced with permission from Cannon CP.

Platelets also important in stent thrombosis:Mechanism of AMI after stent implantation Relative frequency 12% Atherothrombosis at newlocation (after 27 months) Restenosis (after 19 months) 48% Stent thrombosis (after 9 months) 40% Alexopoulos D. Am Heart J 2010; 159: 439-445
Different mechanisms of antiplatelet drugs: • COX-1 inhibitorsASA, Omega 3 • Phosphodiesterase inhibitorsDipyrdamole, Cilostazol • ADP-P2Y12 interaction blokersTiclopidine, Clopidogrel, Prasugrel, Cangrelor, Ticagelor • GP IIb/IIIa blokers • Thrombin receptor antagonists
Blocking different pathways for additional clinical benefit: Clopidogrel Prasugrel Cangrelor Epinephrine Collagen ADP Heparin, hirudin AA Aspirin TxA2 GPIIb/IIIa PLATELET GP IIb/IIIa antagonists Aggregation
ASA • Inactivates COX irreversibly blocking TXA2 formation (potent mediator of aggregation and vasoconstriction) • Effective 15-30 minutes after oral administration • Large dose over 10 gr eicosapentaenoic acid also blocks TXA2
Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors • Dipyridamole stimulates PGI2 synthesis, blocks uptake of adenosine • Clinical trials failed to show efficacy alone, enhances warfarin and ASA • MR form useful for stroke prevention • Cilostazol may be useful in claudicatio and has vasodilatory and antiplatelet effects
Thienopyridines • Bind to P2Y12 receptor inhibiting interaction with ADP that would result in activation and aggregation • Prodrugs requiring transformation to active metabolites
Ticlopidine dramatically changed interventional cardiology by making stent implantation safe Schomig, NEJM 1996
Ticlopidine replaced by clopidogrel: more effective, safer Bhatt, JACC 2002
Antiplatelet Resistance: • Genetic polymorphism in platelet proteins (CYP2C19 reduced function alleles have 30 % decrease in active clopidogrel) • Drug interaction (NSAID , drugs metabolized with Cytochrome P450 ) • Environmental factors(Smoking, DM, HTN, HLP, ACS) VARIABILITY IN RESPONSE NOT ALWAYS RESISTANCE: Insufficent dosing, differences in assays and cutoffs, no gold standart
Is Aspirin Resistance Clinically Significant? • 326 stable CAD • 5.2 % Aspirin resistance • In HOPE study, @ 5 year follow up MI, stroke, death rate 1.8 % increased in the group with 11- deoxythromboxane B2 level ! Circulation 2002, 105: 1650 JACC 2003:41; 961

Cangrelor • Potent inhibitor of ADP induced aggregation • ATP analogue that inhibits P2Y12 by 100 % • No renal/hepatic metabolism to be activated • İv,rapid action, platelets back to normal in 60 minutes • Has additive effects to clopidogrel • Two short term trials discontinued for less than expected efficacy
Ticagrelor • Stable, high affinity inhibitor of ADP induced aggregation • Oral agent acting directly on P2Y12 receptor without transformation • Rapid and greater action • Reversibility • 180 mg loading ,90 mg bid • Higher doses cause dyspnea and ventricular pause
