These factors lead to complement activation, and endothelial damages. Damaged endothelial cells release heparan sulfate which inhibits tissue factor activity and von Willed brand factor （VWVF） and causes aggregation. Finally this cascade of events cause platelets aggregation and leads to heart ischemia and cardiovascular events. DISCUSSION： Anti-platelet therapy is an interesting premise. Anti-platelet resistance patients and bleeding as a result of using ticagrelor and prasugrel should be considered in this treatment methods. Anti-platelet drugs such as clopidogrel are prescribed in cardiovascular events. Platelets have VWF receptors and P2Y12 receptors on their surface, and thus, targeting these receptors can be useful in treatment. The active metabolites of clopidogrel bind to P2Y12R and inhibit ADP binding; thus, clopidogrel inhibits aggregation by interfering in several events as a result of the inhibition of ADP attachment to P2Y12R of the platelet. However, the polymorphisms of P2~ 12 and other genes mentioned in Table 1 showed treatment resistance in anti-platelet therapy, highlighting that these SNPs can be helpful in anti-platelet therapy. CONCLUSION： The knowledge of these SNPs may decrease the number of unwanted effects that endanger patients with cardiovascular diseases and avoids ineffective anti-platelet therapy in several patients. Clopidogrel, ticagrelor, prasugrel, and aspirin and CYP2C19 and their SNPs are very important subjects in anti-platelet therapy. To present the importance of using phannacogenetics in anti-platelet therapy, we discuss here the association between these drugs and the SNPs for therapeutic resistance.展开更多
