Predicting risks of prothrombotic readiness under COVID-19 using genetic testing
COVID-19 poses a significant hazard as regards decompensation of underlying chronic diseases, specific damage to the cardiovascular system, and a high risk of negative health outcomes such as thrombotic events.

BackgroundThrombolytic therapy for acute thrombosis is limited by life‐threatening side effects such as major bleeding and neurotoxicity. New treatment options with enhanced fibrinolytic potential are therefore required.

Endothelial APC/PAR1 distinctly regulates cytokine-induced pro-inflammatory VCAM-1 expression
Introduction: Dysfunction of the endothelium impairs its’ protective role and promotes inflammation and progression of vascular diseases. Activated Protein C (APC) elicits endothelial cytoprotective responses including barrier stabilization, anti ...

Non-canonical proteolytic activation of human prothrombin by subtilisin from Bacillus subtilis may shift the procoagulant\ue2\u80\u93anticoagulant equilibrium toward thrombosis [PDF]
Blood coagulation is a finely regulated physiological process culminating with the factor Xa (FXa)-mediated conversion of the prothrombin (ProT) zymogen to active -thrombin (T).

Thrombin Generation and Presence of Thrombin Receptor in Ovarian Follicles1 [PDF]
Prothrombin, once converted to its enzymatically active form (i.e., thrombin), induces a broad spectrum of cellular responses in both vascular and avascular tissues. Bovine ovarian granulosa cells isolated from healthy follicles of various sizes contain both prothrombin mRNA and immunologically reactive prothrombin that appears to be identical to ...

Heterotrimeric G-protein subunit Gαi2 contributes to agonist-sensitive apoptosis and degranulation in murine platelets [PDF]
Gαi2, a heterotrimeric G-protein subunit, regulates various cell functions including ion channel activity, cell differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis.

Thrombin-Receptor Activation and Thrombin-Induced Brain Tolerance [PDF]
The authors previously found that pretreatment with a low dose of thrombin attenuates the brain edema induced by a large dose of thrombin or an intracerebral hemorrhage, and reduces infarct volume after focal cerebral ischemia (i.e., thrombin preconditioning).

Direct thrombin inhibitors [PDF]
Heparins and vitamin K antagonists have been the primary agents used for anticoagulation in certain cardiovascular and thromboembolic diseases for over 50 years. However, they can be difficult to administer and are fraught with limitations. In response to the need for new anticoagulants, direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) have been developed and ...

Nicotine’s impact on platelet function: insights into hemostasis mechanisms
IntroductionTraditional Miao and Dai Chinese medicines have used nicotine-rich leaf tobacco to treat traumatic injuries by promoting hemostasis. While nicotine is known to enhance platelet aggregation, its effects on other platelet functions and ...
