The effect of the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 4G/5G polymorphism on the thrombotic risk
Tsantes, Argirio E.; Nikolopoulos, Georgios K.; Bagos, Pantelis G.; Bonovas, Stefanos; Kopterides, Petros; Vaiopoulos, G. (2008)Plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), is the central component of the fibrinolytic system. A deletion/insertion (4G/5G) polymorphism in the promoter region of the PAI-1 gene has been correlated with levels of plasma ...

Integrin, alpha 2 gene C807T polymorphism and risk of ischemic stroke: A meta-analysis
Nikolopoulos, Georgios K.; Tsantes, Argirio E.; Bagos, Pantelis G.; Travlou, Anthi S.; Vaiopoulos, G. (2007)Introduction: Platelet adhesion to fibrillar collagen via the membrane glycoprotein (GP) Ia/IIa (α2β1), is a crucial event in the pathogenesis of arterial occlusive disorders. The C807T single nucleotide polymorphism of ...

Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 4G/5G polymorphism and risk of ischemic stroke: A meta-analysis
Tsantes, Argirio E.; Nikolopoulos, Georgios K.; Bagos, Pantelis G.; Tsiara, Chrissa G.; Kapsimali, Violetta; Travlou, Anthi S.; Vaiopoulos, G. (2007)This study investigated the hypothesis that the insertion/deletion (4G/5G) polymorphism of the plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 gene affects the risk for ischemic stroke, since results concerning this association ...
