ATP, a partial agonist of the receptor, was inactive in the presence of CP/CPK. Results further indicated that ATP was a competitive antagonist of ADP actions.K i values were 23.0 ± 1.5 μm in endothelial cells and 14.3 ± 0.3 μm in Jurkat cells. Solutions prepared from commercially available 2-methylthio-ATP (2-MeSATP) or 2-chloro-ATP (2-ClATP) contained ≈10% of ADP derivatives. ADP derivatives were removed from the solution by treatment with CP/CPK. Purified 2-MeSATP and 2-ClATP antagonized platelet aggregation induced by ADP. They did not activate P2Y1 receptors but prevented ADP actions in a competitive manner. K i values for 2-MeSATP were 36.5 μm in endothelial cells and 5.7 ± 0.4 μm in Jurkat cells, andK i values for 2-ClATP were 27.5 μm in endothelial cells and 2.3 ± 0.3 μm in Jurkat cells. EDTA potentiated actions of ADP and ATP on endothelial cells by 2.4- and 3.6-fold, respectively. In conclusion, the rat and human P2Y1 receptors are ADP-specific receptors that recognize ADP and 2-methylthio-ADP, whereas ATP, 2-MeSATP, and 2-ClATP are competitive antagonists. The results further point to the close pharmacological similarity of the P2Y1 receptor and the platelet ADP receptor. %U https://molpharm.aspetjournals.org/content/molpharm/53/4/727.full.pdf
