Assessment of Serum Thrombomodulin in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in Rheumatology Research Center [PDF]

open access: yesActa Medica Iranica, 2009
At present, some clinical presentations and serological parameters such as products of complement activation and elevation of autoantibodies (e.g. dsDNA antibodies), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), or cytokines ...

Thrombomodulin enhances complement regulation through strong affinity interactions with factor H and C3b-Factor H complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Introduction Coagulation and complement systems are simultaneously activated at sites of tissue injury, leading to thrombin generation and opsonisation with C3b.

Increased serum thrombomodulin level is associated with disease severity and mortality in pediatric sepsis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
BackgroundEndothelial dysfunction plays an important role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. As previously reported, the serum thrombomodulin is elevated in diseases associated with endothelial injury.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the ...

Potentiation of thrombus instability: a contributory mechanism to the effectiveness of antithrombotic medications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
© The Author(s) 2018The stability of an arterial thrombus, determined by its structure and ability to resist endogenous fibrinolysis, is a major determinant of the extent of infarction that results from coronary or cerebrovascular thrombosis.

Normal thrombin generation in neonates in spite of prolonged conventional coagulation tests

open access: yesHaematologica, 2008
Conventional coagulation tests might be inadequate to explore mechanisms regulating thrombin generation in neonates, because they do not allow full activation of the reduced levels of protein C.

Human platelets and their capacity of binding viruses: Meaning and challenges? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Blood platelets are first aimed at ensuring primary hemostasis. Beyond this role, they have been acknowledged as having functions in the maintenance of the vascular arborescence and, more recently, as being also innate immune cells, devoted notably to ...

Association of increased fibrinogen concentration with impaired activation of anticoagulant protein C [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Low levels of activated protein C (APC) are a risk factor for venous thrombosis. The mechanisms leading to interindividual differences in APC are not totally elucidated. Protein C is activated by the thrombin-thrombomodulin complex.

Serum thrombomodulin [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis & Rheumatism, 1994
AbstractObjective. Soluble thrombomodulin (sTM), a proposed serum marker of endothelial cell injury, was investigated as a parameter of disease activity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods. Levels of sTM were determined by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay.

Thrombomodulin: A Bifunctional Modulator of Inflammation and Coagulation in Sepsis

open access: yesCritical Care Research and Practice, 2012
Deregulated interplay between inflammation and coagulation plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of sepsis. Therapeutic approaches that simultaneously target both inflammation and coagulation hold great promise for the treatment of sepsis ...

Biomarkers in Patients with Hand-Arm Vibration Injury Entailing Raynaud’s Phenomenon and Cold Sensitivity, Compared to Referents

open access: yesProceedings, 2023
The clinical evaluation of patients with neurosensory injury is based on quantitative sensory testing. Such tests require the patient’s cooperation, which may sometimes hinder a correct diagnosis.
