Role of tissue factor and protease-activated receptors in a mouse model of endotoxemia

TLDR
Data demonstrate that hematopoietic cells are the major pathologic site of TF expression during endotoxemia and suggest that multiple protease-activated receptors mediate crosstalk between coagulation and inflammation.

Protease-activated receptors in hemostasis, thrombosis and vascular biology.

TL;DR: Roles for PARs in blood vessel formation and other processes during embryonic development are emerging, and whether these reflect new roles for the coagulation cascade and/or PAR signaling to other proteases remains to be explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

New fundamentals in hemostasis

TL;DR: This review summarizes new concepts of activation of proteases that regulate coagulation and anticoagulation, to give rise to transient thrombin generation and fibrin clot formation and speculates on the (patho)physiological roles of intra- and extravascular receptors that operate in response to these proteases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of the Extrinsic Pathway of Blood Coagulation in Hemostasis and Thrombosis

TL;DR: Understanding how the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation contributes to hemostasis and thrombosis may lead to the development of safe and effective hemostatic agents and antithrombotic drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation, endothelium, and coagulation in sepsis

TL;DR: The relationship between endothelium and coagulation in sepsis is tight and that further research is needed, for example, to better understand the role of activated PC signaling via PAR‐1, the roles of the endothelial PC receptor herein, and therole of the glycocalyx.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tissue factor in cardiovascular diseases: molecular mechanisms and clinical implications.

TL;DR: Tissue Factor (TF) is the key initiator of the coagulation cascade; it binds factor VIIa resulting in activation of factor IX and factor X, ultimately leading to fibrin formation as mentioned in this paper.

Efficacy and safety of recombinant human activated protein C for severe sepsis.

TL;DR: This phase 3 trial assessed whether treatment with drotrecogin alfa activated reduced the rate of death from any cause among patients with severe sepsis.

Thrombin signalling and protease-activated receptors

TL;DR: Roles for PARs are beginning to emerge in haemostasis and thrombosis, inflammation, and perhaps even blood vessel development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation

TL;DR: Bleeding may be the presenting symptom in a patient with disseminated intravascular coagulation, a factor that can complicate decisions about treatment, and the use and subsequent depletion of platelets and coagulating proteins resulting from the ongoing coagulations may induce severe bleeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathogenetic Mechanisms of Septic Shock

TL;DR: One of the most frequent and serious problems confronting clinicians is the management of a serious infection and the systemic response to infection, a syndrome termed sepsis, when this syndrome results in hypotension and organ dysfunction, called septic shock.
