Platelet Gene Expression as a Biomarker Risk Stratification Tool in Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Pilot Investigation
Platelets play a major role in the pathophysiology of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Recent evidence reveals megakaryocyte-derived platelet pre-mRNA is spliced to mRNA and then translated into functional proteins in response to external stimulation. An exon microarray analyzes pre-mRNA alternati...
