Next, we verified the influence of additional major cardiovascular risk factors like the inflammatory mediator hsCRP (Figure 4A), diabetes (Figure 4B), eGFR (Figure 4C) and arterial hypertension (Figure 4D) on platelet CXCL16–CXCR6 axis as compared to serum sCXCL16. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL16 and Hypertension.
