Definition (NCI) | A thienopyridine derivative with anticoagulant activity. Ticlopidine inhibits adenosine-diphosphate (ADP) binding to its platelet receptor. This prevents ADP activation and inhibits platelet expression of the glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIA receptors, binding of fibrinogen to platelet glycoprotein GP IIb-IIIa and platelet-platelet interaction. This results in increased bleeding time. |
Definition (MSH) | An effective inhibitor of platelet aggregation commonly used in the placement of STENTS in CORONARY ARTERIES. |
