Background
At the time of writing 12 P2Y receptors seemed to be applicable to human beings. Quite a number of ligands have been found for them, one of which is ADP. ADP is stored inside blood platelets and is used to help blood platelets clump together – to clot, useful when you have cut yourself. As a sort of balancing principle, however, Adenosine acts as an agonist to stop the aggregation – stop clotting. So here we have got to the functions:
- Adenosine stops or slows down blood clotting – it keeps the blood ‘thin’ as opposed to thick
- ADP helps blood platelets to aggregate together - to form a clot, to thicken up.
All this happens at the P2Y12 receptor
A description of the experience
Clopidogrel
Clopidogrel is a drug used to inhibit blood clots in coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, and cerebrovascular disease. It is marketed under the trade name Plavix [see separate entry]. It works by irreversibly inhibiting the P2Y12 receptor. It ‘thins the blood’.
