Using the chi-squared (χ<sup>2</sup>) test and genetic model analysis, we found an association with BC for four SNPs (rs616488 (1p36.22/PEX14), rs6678914 (1q32.1/LGR6), rs17530068 (6q14/unknown) and rs6001930 (22q13.1/MKL1)) at a 5% level.

Two SNPs showed significantly stronger associations for ILC than LCIS (rs2981579/10q26/FGFR2, P-het = 0.04 and rs889312/5q11/MAP3K1, P-het = 0.03); and two showed stronger associations for LCIS than ILC (rs6678914/1q32/LGR6, P-het = 0.001 and rs1752911/6q14, P-het = 0.04).
While the platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa is involved in the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndromes whereas most platelet activating stimuli act via G Protein coupled receptors we investigated whether the 825C>T polymorphism of the gene GNB3 encoding the G protein beta3 subunit together with the platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIIa Pl(A) polymorphism are predictive of platelet aggregability on stimulation with various agonists acting via GPCRs.
