Offset of ticagrelor prior to coronary artery bypass graft surgery for acute coronary syndromes: effects on platelet function and cellular adenosine uptake

Ticagrelor is an antagonist of both platelet adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptor P2Y12 and equilibrative nucleoside transporter-1. Optimal timing of ticagrelor cessation prior to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains unclear. We characterized the offset of ticagrelor’s effects on platelets...
