Impact of Platelet Glycoprotein Ia/IIa C807T Gene Polymorphisms on Coronary Artery Aneurysms of KD Patients

Abstract: Background. Kawasaki disease (KD) is a systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology in children. Coronary artery abnormalities are the most common complications of KD. Recent evidence showed that genetic polymorphisms may lead to susceptibility to KD. Genetic variants in platelet glycoprotein have been reported to be associated with coronary artery disease. The aim of the present study is to investigate the correlation between the role of platelet glycoprotein and coronary artery aneurysms in KD patients. Methods. … Show more

“…14 The T allele of glycoprotein Ia/IIa ( C807 T; rs1126643) may have a protective effect on risk of CAA in KD patients, especially females and children under 60 months. 15 In contrast, the TBXA2R rs4523 G allele is associated with decreased susceptibility to KD. 16 All of these findings suggest that genetic susceptibility may affect the function of platelets to mediate the pathogenesis and pathological process of KD.…”
