The platelet ATP and ADP receptors.
peer reviewedThis review focuses on recent findings on the physiology of these platelet ADP and ATP receptors, their distinct downstream intracellular signaling pathways as well as on the available agonists, antagonists and inhibitors that allow their pharmacological discrimination
Does the P(2X1del) variant lacking 17 amino acids in its extracellular domain represent a relevant functional ion channel in platelets?
In this letter, we questionned the existence of a ADP responsive P2X1 protein variant in platelets
The P2Y1 receptor antagonist adenosine-2',5'-diphosphate non-selectively antagonizes the platelet P2X1 ion channel.
This letter indicates a lack of specificity of a platelet P2Y1 receptor antagonist
The ATP-gated P2X1 ion channel acts as a positive regulator of platelet responses to collagen.
This study shows that, during collagen-initiated platelet activation, the early secretion of ATP results in the activation of the P2X1 ion channel, which plays a role as a positive regulator of further platelet responses
