Familial protein S deficiency is associated with recurrent thrombosis.
Recent studies have demonstrated that protein C deficiency is associated with recurrent familial thrombosis. In plasma, activated protein C functions as an anticoagulant. This anticoagulant response requires a vitamin K-dependent plasma protein cofactor, referred to as protein S. Since the anticoagulant activity of activated protein C is dependent on protein S, we hypothesized that patients lac...
متن کاملPreventing platelet thrombosis with a PAR1 pepducin.
Platelet-mediated arterial thrombosis, such as occurs after atherosclerotic plaque rupture, erosion, or percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), is the underlying cause for most myocardial infarctions and many ischemic strokes.1 Platelets adhere to damaged blood vessels, aggregate with one another, and facilitate the generation of thrombin, which in turn makes fibrin. Thrombin is also a highl...
متن کاملGraded compression for preventing deep venous thrombosis.
The physiological effects of static compression of the leg have recently been reinvestigated. Graded compression extending from the ankle to the upper thigh produces the maximum increase in velocity of femoral vein blood flow and the maximum decrease in clearance times of contrast media and radioisotopes from the deep veins of the calf. This type of compression may be easily produced by a speci...
متن کاملRight atrial thrombosis associated with sagittal sinus thrombosis caused by protein C-S deficiency.
Right atrial thrombi may develop within the right atrium or may have peripheral venous origins that, on their way to the final destination site lodge in, right atrium. Right atrial thrombosis is classified as two type: A (mobile, thin) and B (non mobile and attached to atrial wall) that they are probably of cardiac origin due to local pathology, indwelling catheter, atrial fibrillation, stasis,...
متن کاملAntithrombotic activity of protein S infused without activated protein C in a baboon thrombosis model.
Protein S (ProS) is an essential plasma protein that enhances the anticoagulant activity of activated protein C (APC). In vitro , purified native human Zn2+-containing ProS also exerts direct anticoagulant activity by inhibiting prothrombinase and extrinsic FXase activities independently of APC. We investigated antithrombotic effects of ProS infused without APC in a baboon shunt model of throm...
