A method for reducing or maintaining platelet inhibition in a patient by administering cangrelor prior to an invasive procedure is described. The method of this invention can be used for patients in need of antiplatelet therapy or at risk of thrombosis. The method can further be used in patients who were previously treated with long-acting platelet inhibitors without increasing the risk of excessive bleeding.

The present invention relates to compounds having a lipid affinity of less than 15% by weight of the compound (such as a log P of −0.75 or less) for use in targeting mitochondria to reduce, inhibit or prevent the formation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and for use in treating or preventing a pathological condition associated with increased levels of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species, and for non-therapeutic uses, such as enhancing sports performance and reducing, inhibiting or preventing the formation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species during exercise, resulting in maintenance of muscle strength and/or a reduction in muscle fatigue, and associated methods. The present invention also relates to extracts and compositions comprising compounds having a lipid affinity of less than 15% (such as a log P of −0.75 or less) for the same uses.
