A polymorphism in the human serotonin 5-HT(2A )receptor gene may protect against systemic sclerosis by reducing platelet aggregation
INTRODUCTION: Platelet aggregation may contribute to the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis: following activation, platelets release significant amounts of serotonin – which promotes vasoconstriction and fibrosis, and further enhances aggregation. The C+1354T polymorphism in the exonic region of the...
