Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Platelet aggregation varies among individuals; and genetic factors may alter platelet activation through G-protein-coupled receptors, thus influencing results of point-of-care platelet aggregometry in whole blood. We tested the hypothesis that the C825T polymorphism of the gene GNB3 encoding the G-protein β-3 subunit and the platelet GPIIIa Pl(A1)/(A2) polymorphism of the glycoprotein IIIa influence...
