Anagrelide hydrochloride is a potent PDE3 (type III phosphodiesterase) inhibitor (IC50 = 36 nM). It produces thrombocytopenic effects via inhibition of megakaryocyte maturation and inhibits platelet aggregation. Studies have shown that it binds to and inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which is involved in the production of thromboxane A2. It can also reduce the aggregation of platelets in response to various agonists, including collagen, thrombin, and ADP. In addition, Anagrelide hydrochloride reduces the production of other pro-inflammatory molecules, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. In vitro studies have been used to investigate its mechanism of action, biological activity, and biochemical and physiological effects.
