The antianginal drug trapidil (5-methyl-7-diethylamino-s-triazolo-(1.5-a)pyrimidine) and its derivative AR 12463 (5-piperidino-7-(N-(n-amyl)-N-(beta-hydroxyethyl)-amino)-s-triazolo(1.5- a) pyrimidine) inhibit the thromboxane A2 agonist (U-46619)-induced mobilization of intracellular platelet-free Ca++ as measured with the fluorescent Ca++ indicator Indo-1. This inhibitory effect is independent of extracellular Ca++ concentration, and AR 12463 is about 70-fold more active than trapidil itself.

D011743 Pyrimidines A family of 6-membered heterocyclic compounds occurring in nature in a wide variety of forms. They include several nucleic acid constituents (CYTOSINE; THYMINE; and URACIL) and form the basic structure of the barbiturates.
D001792 Blood Platelets Non-nucleated disk-shaped cells formed in the megakaryocyte and found in the blood of all mammals. They are mainly involved in blood coagulation. Platelets,Thrombocytes,Blood Platelet,Platelet,Platelet, Blood,Platelets, Blood,Thrombocyte
D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
