Increased platelet expression of FcGammaRIIa and its potential impact on platelet reactivity in patients with end stage renal disease

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Increased platelet reactivity has been implicated in cardiovascular disease – the major cause of death in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). FcGammaRIIA is a component of glycoprotein VI and Ib-IX-V that mediate activation...
