title: Polymorphisms of HPA-1 through 6 on platelet membrane glycoprotein receptors are not a genetic risk factor for myocardial infarction in the Japanese population.
abstract: We examined HPA genotypes derived from polymorphisms of platelet membrane receptors in 88 Japanese patients with early-onset myocardial infarction and in 100 control subjects. The results indicated that HPA genotypes 1 through 6 are not associated with early-onset myocardial infarction.
