ASPIRIN RESISTANCE CANDIDATE GENES AND THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH THE RISK OF CARDIOVASCULAR EVENTS

The review presents the current literature evidence on the most likely genetic polymorphisms of aspirin resistance, such as polymorphisms of cyclooxygenase, glycoproteins GP Ib/IIIa, GP Ibα, GP VI, and adenosine diphosphate receptors P2Y1 and P2Y12. The authors discuss the prevalence of these polymorphisms in laboratory and clinical aspirin resistance, as well as their association with the risk of cardiovascular events during aspirin treatment.
