Lyso-Sulfatide Binds Factor Xa and Inhibits Thrombin Generation by the Prothrombinase Complex
Blood coagulation reactions are strongly influenced by phospholipids, but little is known about the influence of sphingolipids on coagulation mechanisms. Lysosulfatide (lyso-SF) (sulfogalactosyl sphingosine) prolonged factor Xa (fXa) 1-stage plasma clotting assays, showing it had robust anticoagulant activity. In studies using purified clotting factors, lyso-SF inhibited >90% of prothrombin (II...
متن کاملEffects of factor Xa and protein S on the individual activated protein C-mediated cleavages of coagulation factor Va.
Activated protein C inhibits the procoagulant function of activated factor V (FVa) through proteolytic cleavages at Arg-306, Arg-506, and Arg-679. The cleavage at Arg-506 is kinetically favored but protected by factor Xa (FXa). Protein S has been suggested to annihilate the inhibitory effect of FXa, a proposal that has been challenged. To elucidate the effects of FXa and protein S on the indivi...
متن کاملPlatelet deposition inhibits tissue factor activity: in vitro clots are impermeable to factor Xa.
Upon plaque rupture or vascular injury, tissue factor (TF) protein in the vessel wall becomes exposed to flowing blood, initiating a cascade of reactions resulting in the deposition of fibrin and platelets on the injured site. Paradoxically, the growing thrombus may act as a barrier, restricting the convective and diffusive exchange of substrates and coagulation products between the blood and r...
متن کاملHuman protein S inhibits prothrombinase complex activity on endothelial cells and platelets via direct interactions with factors Va and Xa.
Protein S is a vitamin K-dependent non-enzymatic coagulation factor involved in the regulation of activated protein C (APC). In this paper we report an APC-independent anticoagulant function of protein S. We observed an inhibition of prothrombinase activity on endothelial cells and platelets which was half-maximal at physiological concentrations of free protein S in plasma. On endothelial cells...
متن کاملA Mammalian bromodomain protein, brd4, interacts with replication factor C and inhibits progression to S phase.
Brd4 belongs to the BET family of nuclear proteins that carry two bromodomains implicated in the interaction with chromatin. Expression of Brd4 correlates with cell growth and is induced during early G(1) upon mitogenic stimuli. In the present study, we investigated the role of Brd4 in cell growth regulation. We found that ectopic expression of Brd4 in NIH 3T3 and HeLa cells inhibits cell cycle...
