Mechanisms of thrombin-Induced myometrial contractions: Potential targets of progesterone.
Intrauterine bleeding during pregnancy is a major risk factor for preterm birth. Thrombin, the most abundant coagulation factor in blood, is associated with uterine myometrial contraction.

Thrombin is known to signal to cells by cleaving/activating a G–protein–coupled family of proteinase-activated receptors (PARs). The signaling mechanism involves the proteolytic unmasking of an N-terminal receptor sequence that acts as a tethered ...

Inhibition of prostaglandin E2 receptor EP3 mitigates thrombin-induced brain injury
Prostaglandin E2 EP3 receptor is the only prostaglandin E2 receptor that couples to multiple G-proteins, but its role in thrombin-induced brain injury is unclear.

Factor Xa or thrombin: Is thrombin a better target? [PDF]
The limitations of the vitamin K antagonists have prompted the development of new oral anticoagulants that target specific clotting enzymes. Most of the novel agents currently under development target either thrombin or factor Xa. As the final effector of blood coagulation and the most potent platelet agonist, thrombin is a logical target for new oral ...

Negatively charged phospholipids stimulate factor XI activation by thrombin
Introduction: Coagulation factor XI (FXI) is the zymogen of the serine-protease FXIa, which contributes to thrombin formation by activating factor IX.

Circulating Extracellular Vesicles Are Strongly Associated With Cardiovascular Risk Markers
BackgroundExtracellular vesicles (EVs) are submicron membrane-bound vesicles released from various cells, which are emerging as a potential novel biomarker in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) due to their procoagulatory and prothrombotic properties ...

A Perspective of Coagulation Dysfunction in Multiple Sclerosis and in Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis [PDF]
A key role of both coagulation and vascular thrombosis has been reported since the first descriptions of multiple sclerosis (MS). Subsequently, the observation of a close concordance between perivascular fibrin(ogen) deposition and the occurrence of ...

Laboratory Detection of the Antiphospholipid Syndrome via Calibrated Automated Thrombography [PDF]
Lupus anticoagulants (LAC) consist of anti phospholipid antibodies, detected via their anti coagulant properties in vitro. Strong LAC relate to thromboembolic events, a hallmark of the anti-phospholipid syndrome.
