EL2Ab shows preclinical antithrombotic activity; leaves open P2Y1R as a human therapeutic target pending clinical studies.
Does EL2Ab inhibit platelet function and protect against thrombogenesis in preclinical models?
A novel function-blocking antibody against the P2Y1 receptor inhibits platelet aggregation and thrombus formation, validating P2Y1R as a potential target for antiplatelet therapy.
Karim et al. (2015) studied Thrombosis. EL2Ab (antibody targeting P2Y1R) was evaluated on ADP-induced platelet aggregation and thrombus formation. A novel antibody targeting the P2Y1 receptor (EL2Ab) dose-dependently inhibited ADP-induced platelet aggregation and prolonged occlusion time in a thrombosis model, alongside prolonged bleeding time.
