Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The thromboxane A2 receptor (TBXA2R) is a platelet receptor that binds to 2 distinct G protein signaling pathways (Gq and Gα12/13) and plays a major role in platelet activation. Mutations in the TBXA2R gene can alter platelet aggregation and cause bleeding disorders. Until now, only mutations affecting the Gq pathway have been reported. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to characterize a new TBXA2R gene...
