Popis: Platelets are involved in thrombus formation and inflammation following vascular injury, while clopidogrel exerts antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory actions. We investigated various platelet-derived prothrombotic and proinflammatory mediators as well as the platelet aggregatory response in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) receiving clopidogrel, as a function of the patient responsiveness to drug treatment. Blood samples were obtained from 40 patients with recent (
