Development of a PCR method for detection of thromboxane synthase gene / Roihanah Rahmat

Thromboxane synthase gene (TBXAS 1), converts prostaglandin H2 into thromboxane A2, a potent vasoconstrictor and inducer of platelet aggregation. Thromboxane A2 has been implicated in modulating cell cytotoxicity tumor growth and metastasis. The aim of this study is to develop and validate a simple...
