Hypothesis-generating for P2Y12 genetic effects on platelet reactivity; requires validation before informing antiplatelet strategies.
Is ADP-induced platelet aggregation associated with P2Y12 gene sequence variations in healthy subjects?
The H2 haplotype of the P2Y12 receptor gene is associated with altered ADP-induced platelet aggregation, suggesting a potential genetic basis for variability in atherothrombosis risk and response to antiplatelet drugs.
Fontana et al. (2003) studied this question.
