There is a striking congruence between the inhibitory effects of three synthetic entities on ADP-induced (i) human blood platelet aggregation and (ii) platelet factor 3 availability as evidenced by prolonged 'Stypven time'. The pronounced parallel between each compound's potency in inhibiting aggregation (e.g.

The effect of structural features in a series of carbamoylpiperidine and nipecotoylpiperazine congeners on epinephrine-induced aggregation of human blood platelets is examined. Epinephrine-induced primary aggregation is effectively inhibited by the nipecotoylpiperazine derivatives (culminating at an IPA50 of 11.9 microM).

The inhibitory potencies of carbamoylpiperidinoalkane and N-alkylnipecotoylpiperazine derivatives on ADP-stimulated human blood platelet aggregation, serotonin (5-HT) release and platelet factor 4 (PF-4) release were evaluated. The procedure was designed to allow concurrent determination of all three sets of values. Most compounds were more than twice as potent in blocking PF-4 (X = 91 +/- 1 (S.

Five carbamoylpiperidine congeners and one nipecotoylpiperazine derivative, which inhibit ADP-induced aggregation of human blood platelets in vitro, were evaluated in vivo for acute toxicity to male and female ICR mice. Although the in vitro platelet aggregation inhibiting potency of these compounds covered about a 1150-fold range, the acute ip LD50s (microM/kg) in mice showed only a fourfold range of values. An increase in platelet aggregation inhibiting potency (in vitro) was not paralleled by an increase in acute toxicity in vivo for these compounds; in fact, the most potent aggregation inhibitor (microM/liter) was the least toxic (microM/kg) to mice.
