Thrombocytosis is associated with an increased production of platelet‐derived microparticles from activated platelets, which contribute to vaso‐occlusion in sickle cell disease by perpetuating the cycle of inflammation, procoagulant state and endothelial dysfunction.

Background Few studies have examined how antiplatelet therapies are selected during the routine care of acute myocardial infarction patients, particularly relative to the patient's estimated mortality and bleeding risks.

Prasugrel is a third-generation thienopyridine that provides earlier onset of action, has a reduced probability of insensitivity to the drug, a greater degree of inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation compared to clopidogrel.

The potential for biased signalling in the P2Y receptor family of GPCRs
The purinergic receptor family is primarily activated by nucleotides, and contains members of both the G protein coupled‐receptor (GPCR) superfamily (P1 and P2Y) and ligand‐gated ion channels (P2X). The P2Y receptors are widely expressed in the human body, and given the ubiquitous nature of nucleotides, purinergic signalling is involved with a plethora

Background: Acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) are life-threatening conditions associated with acute myocardial ischaemia. There are three main types of ACS: ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (

Safety of Prasugrel in Indian patients – Multicentric registry of 1000 cases
Background: Clopidogrel has been the only available antiplatelet drug used along with aspirin in patients of ACS. In recent years 2 new antiplatelet drugs (Prasugrel and Ticagrelor) have become available.

CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 contribute to clopidogrel bioactivation. CYP2C19 no‐function alleles diminish clopidogrel's antiplatelet effects and clinical effectiveness. Coadministration of either a CYP2C19 or a CYP3A4 inhibitor may also reduce clopidogrel's antiplatelet effects and lead to phenoconversion in patients without a CYP2C19 no‐function allele (normal/
