“…HPA-3b, and homozygous HPA-3b/3b were associated with CAD in Tunisians, in agreement with a recent study, which demonstrated that HPA-3b allele and HPA-3b/3b genotype were associated with extensive coronary thrombosis [ST segment elevation) [36]. Our findings are in apparent disagreement with an earlier German study which demonstrated that neither HPA-1 nor HPA-3 variants, individually or in combination, are associated with increased CAD or MI risk [23], and with a Korean study which suggested that HPA-3b/b was protective of CAD in young (\56 years of age) male patients [37].…”

“…Many investigations support the idea that polymorphic variants in genes involved in the endothelial function [26], inflammation [27], lipid metabolism [28], thrombosis [29], and fibrinolysis [30] are strongly associated with ACS. ACS and DM2 have different pathophysiologic mechanisms; however, they share a close relationship and both converge in a chronic inflammatory state involving endothelial dysfunction [31, 32].…”

“…These data were interpreted from the standpoint of a less important role of HPA-3 polymorphism compared with HPA-1 polymorphism. In contrast, in a more recent study with 118 Caucasian CAD patients those carrying HPA-3b allele in homozygous state had nearly 6 times higher risk of ST elevation MI compared with those heterozygous for HPA-3b or homozygous for HPA-3a allele (after adjustment for age, sex and vascular risk factors) [70]. Finally, in a Korean study with 1,073 CAD patients subgroup analysis revealed association of HPA-3 polymorphism with MI among male patients below 56 years of age and a low frequency of MI among those young males carrying the HPA-3b/b genotype [71].…”

“…Several large studies addressed the issue of the possible effect of HPA-3 or GPIIb polymorphism on platelet function and its association with atherosclerosis and acute coronary syndromes [69][70][71]. Again, there are discrepancies in the obtained results, which may suggest variability of the functioning of this polymorphism confounded by age, ethnicity, disease state and possibly drug treatment.…”
