Abstract
Recent studies have highlighted the complexity of platelet biology, revealing their diverse roles beyond hemostasis. Pathological platelet activation is now recognized as a key contributor to thrombosis and inflammation that are both central to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Emerging research emphasizes the significant impact of demographic factors - such as age, sex, race, and ethnicity - on CVD risk and responses to antiplatelet therapies. These population-based differences, shaped by genetic and non-genetic factors, highlight the need for reevaluation of antiplatelet strategies. We address current knowledge and emphasize the pressing need for further research into platelet biology and cardiovascular outcomes across diverse populations. In this review we advocate for tailored therapeutic approaches in CVD based on the recent demographic-focused findings.
期刊介绍：
Trends in Pharmacological Sciences (TIPS) is a monthly peer-reviewed reviews journal that focuses on a wide range of topics in pharmacology, pharmacy, pharmaceutics, and toxicology. Launched in 1979, TIPS publishes concise articles discussing the latest advancements in pharmacology and therapeutics research.
The journal encourages submissions that align with its core themes while also being open to articles on the biopharma regulatory landscape, science policy and regulation, and bioethics.
Each issue of TIPS provides a platform for experts to share their insights and perspectives on the most exciting developments in the field. Through rigorous peer review, the journal ensures the quality and reliability of published articles.
Authors are invited to contribute articles that contribute to the understanding of pharmacology and its applications in various domains. Whether it's exploring innovative drug therapies or discussing the ethical considerations of pharmaceutical research, TIPS provides a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in the pharmacological sciences.
