The effect of (+)-S-145, (1R, 2S, 3S, 4S)-(5Z)-7-(3-phenylsulfonylaminobicyclo [2.2.1] hept-2-yl) heptenoic acid on human and guinea pig platelet aggregation was examined. (+)-S-145 sodium salt inhibited human platelet aggregation induced by arachidonic acid (AA), 9,11-methanoepoxy-PGH2 (U 46619), collagen, ADP or epinephrine with the IC50 being 0.047-0.146 microM in an in vitro system. When (+)-S-145 calcium salt dihydrate was administered orally to guinea pigs, it inhibited AA-, U-46619- or collagen-induced platelet aggregation dose-dependently with the minimum effective dose being 0.03 mg/kg, and the effective duration being maximally 3 hr. The inhibiting potency and effective duration of (+)-S-145 calcium salt dihydrate after multiple administrations, once a day (0.5 mg/kg) for 7 days, were almost the same as those after a single administration. Although (+)-S-145 sodium salt showed a partial agonist effect (shape change) on platelets in vitro, the effect diminished after pretreatment of the platelets with a lower dose of this compound. These data suggest that (+)-S-145 calcium salt dihydrate is an orally effective potent platelet aggregation inhibitor.
