Epigenetic Regulation of <i>F2RL3</i> Associates With Myocardial Infarction and Platelet Function
11 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
Background: DNA hypomethylation at the F2RL3 (F2R like thrombin or trypsin receptor 3) locus has been associated with both smoking and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; whether these smoking-related associations form a pathway to disease is unknown. F2RL3 encodes protease-activated receptor 4, a potent thrombin receptor expressed on platelets. Given the role of thrombin in platelet activation and the role...
