Bioactivity | MRS2179 tetrasodium hydrate is a competitive P2Y1 receptor antagonist, with a Kb of 102 nM and a pA2 of 6.99 for turkey P2Y1 receptor. MRS2179 tetrasodium hydrate is selective for P2Y1 over P2X1 (IC50=1.15 µM), P2X3 (12.9 µM), P2X2, P2X4, P2Y2, P2Y4, and P2Y6 receptors[1][2]. MRS2179 tetrasodium hydrate inhibits platelet aggregation[3]. |
