ABSTRACT: The study protocol for both cohorts has been previously described (Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis 2012:1-12). HV1 cohort: Briefly 50 healthy volunteers were exposed to two weeks of 325mg/day aspirin after which whole blood RNA was collected in PAXgene tubes and profiled by microarray before and after aspirin exposure. The pre-aspirin samples were profiled on the U133A 2.0 array and the post-aspirin samples were profiled on the U1333plus 2.0 array. HV2 cohort: Briefly 53 healthy volunteers were exposed to four weeks of 325mg/day aspirin after which whole blood RNA was collected in PAXgene tubes and profiled by U133plus 2.0 array before and after aspirin exposure.

To develop an integrated metric of non-COX-1-dependent platelet function (NCDPF) to measure the temporal response to aspirin in healthy volunteers and diabetics. NCDPF on aspirin demonstrates wide variability, despite suppression of COX-1. Although a variety of NCDPF assays are available, no standard exists and their reproducibility is not established. We administered 325 mg/day aspirin to two cohorts of volunteers (HV1, n = 52, and HV2, n = 96) and diabetics (DM, n = 74) and measured NCDPF usin ...[more]
