Abstract
SummaryPlatelets of cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats and human subjects were aggregated with adenosine diphosphate after having been in contact with adenosine or dipyridamole for 5 to 60 min. The species profiles of both agents were the same. Both inhibited aggregation of human and rabbit platelets and the degree of inhibition increased with the time of contact. Neither inhibited aggregation of cat or guinea-pig platelets and both potentiated the rate and extent of aggregation of rat platelets: the degree of potentiation increased with the time of contact. Some reports on the related effects of adenosine and dipyridamole are reviewed and it is suggested that the effects of dipyridamole might be due to an affinity for adenosine receptors.
