Decryption of tissue factor [PDF]
Tissue factor (TF) is a transmembrane protein which, in complex with factor (F)VIIa, initiates blood coagulation. Numerous studies have determined TF epitopes and individual amino acids which play an important role in the TF/FVIIa complex formation and its activity towards natural substrates.

Heparanase—A Link between Coagulation, Angiogenesis, and Cancer
Heparanase that was cloned from and is abundant in the placenta is implicated in cell invasion, tumor metastasis, and angiogenesis. Recently we have demonstrated that heparanase may also affect the hemostatic system in a non-enzymatic manner.

Role of growth factors in the pathogenesis of tissue fibrosis in systemic sclerosis. [PDF]
The most severe clinical and pathologic manifestations of systemic sclerosis (SSc) are the result of a fibrotic process characterized by the excessive and often progressive deposition of collagen and other connective tissue macromolecules in skin and ...

Introduction: Coagulation and fibrinolysis remain sparsely addressed with regards to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We hypothesized that ARDS development might be associated with changes in plasma coagulation and fibrinolysis. Our aim was to

The vast majority of coagulation factor VII (FVII), a trypsin-like protease, circulates as the inactive zymogen. Activated FVII (FVIIa) is formed upon proteolytic activation of FVII, where it remains in a zymogen-like state and it is fully activated only

Intravascular tissue factor initiates coagulation via circulating microvesicles and platelets [PDF]
Although tissue factor (TF), the principial initiator of physiological coagulation and pathological thrombosis, has recently been proposed to be present in human blood, the functional significance and location of the intravascular TF is unknown.
