Previous studies in experimental models revealed a role for the P2Y 1 platelet ADP receptor
in systemic vascular thromboembolism models. In the present work, we used models of
localized arterial and venous thrombosis to assess the role of the P2Y 1 receptor in these
processes. Arterial thrombosis was induced in one mesenteric arteriole of a mouse using
FeCl 3, while venous thrombosis was studied in a Wessler model adapted to rats. P2Y 1-
deficient mice and mice treated with the P2Y 1 antagonist MRS2179 displayed significantly …
