Bioactivity | Clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate is an antiplatelet agent to prevent blood clots. Clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate inhibits CYP2B6 and CYP2C19 with IC50s of 18.2 nM and 524 nM, respectively[1]. Clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate is a potent antithrombotic agent that inhibits ADP-induced platelet aggregation[2].Clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate also is an orally active P2Y(12) inhibitor[5]. |
Invitro | Clopidogrel (1.5 mM;12 and 24 hours) up-regulates the expression of TRIB3 and CHOP in a concentration- and time-dependent manner, as measured by real-time PCR and Western blot analysis[3].Clopidogrel (1.5 mM; 24 hours) significantly induces human gastric epithelial cell (GES-1) apoptosis[3]. Western Blot Analysis[3] Cell Line: |
In Vivo | Clopidogrel (5 mg/kg) significantly inhibits thrombus formation compared with vehicle. Acetylsalicylic acid (0.15 mg/kg) can add to the antithrombotic effect of Clopidogrel in mice; Acetylsalicylic acid (0.6 mg/kg) blunts the antithrombotic effect of Clopidogrel[4]. Animal Model: |
