Pharmacological effects of 5-hydroxykynuramine (5-HK) were investigated in chicken whole blood. It was shown that 5-HK had a time-depending inhibiting activity on platelet aggregation induced by 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). Experiments were carried out in order to determine whether the inhibitory effect
