| 1 | Impact of the Thr789Ala variant of the von Willebrand factor levels, on ristocetin co-factor and collagen binding capacity and its association with coronary heart disease in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2. | Ristocetin | von Willebrand factor | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | In addition, ristocetin co-factor was significantly increased in vWF Thr789Ala variant carriers (p < 0.05). | Ristocetin | von Willebrand factor | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | In conclusion, although the Thr789Ala vWF gene variant is associated with increased plasma concentrations of vWF, ristocetin co factor levels and collagen binding capacity in patients with type 2 diabetes and CHD, a direct effect of this variant on the occurrence of CHD in patients with type 2 diabetes, could not be detected. | Ristocetin | von Willebrand factor | Homo sapiens |
