Influence of ABO Locus on PFA-100 Collagen-ADP Closure Time Is Not Totally Dependent on the Von Willebrand Factor. Results of a GWAS on GAIT-2 Project Phenotypes

(1) Background: In a previous study, we found that two phenotypes related to platelet reactivity, measured with the PFA-100 system, were highly heritable. The aim of the present study was to identify genetic determinants that influence the variability of these phenotypes: closure time of collagen-ADP (Col-ADP) and of collagen-epinephrine (Col-Epi). (2) Methods: As part of the GAIT-2 (Genetic Analysis of Idiopathic Thrombophilia (2) Project, 935...
