Abstract excerpt
Thromboxane A2 receptor (TP) is an important actor in vascular physiology and plays a crucial role in the platelet activation process. Genetic polymorphisms of the gene coding for the TP have been described, but their impacts on platelet function tests are unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between genetic polymorphisms of the coding sequence of the TP gene and platelet function...
