    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

    The P2Y1 receptor antagonist adenosine-2',5'-diphosphate non-selectively antagonizes the platelet P2X1 ion channel.

    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
