Abstract:
:Adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) induces human platelet aggregation and inhibits stimulated adenylate cyclase. Adenosine 5'-O-(1-thiodiphosphate) (ADP-alpha-S) and adenosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) (ADP-beta-S) act at the ADP receptor and achieve the same maximal rate of human platelet aggregation as each other. Adenosine and prostaglandin E1, which noncompetitively inhibit ADP-induced aggregation by stimulating adenylate cyclase, inhibit aggregation induced by ADP-x-S more than aggregation induced by ADP-beta-S. ADP-x-S, unlike ADP-beta-S and ADP itself, does not inhibit stimulated adenylate cyclase. This suggests that the inhibition of stimulated adenylate cyclase by ADP, although not a cause of aggregation, may be of physiological importance in reducing the effects of endogenous agents such as adenosine and prostaglandins (for example, prostacyclin) to which the platelet may be exposed.
