Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Association of P2RY1 and P2RY12 polymorphisms with on-aspirin platelet reactivity was investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Platelet reactivity was assessed by the light transmission aggregometry and TxB(2) assay in 423 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) on aspirin. High residual platelet reactivity (RPR) was defined by ≥20% and ≥70% maximal aggregation stimulated with 0.5 mg/mL arachidonic...
