HEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Bioengineering of coagulation factor VIII for improved secretion
Factor VIII (FVIII) functions as a cofactor within the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. Quantitative or qualitative deficiencies of FVIII result in the inherited bleeding disorder hemophilia A. Expression of FVIII (domain structure A1-A2-BA3-C1-C2) in heterologous mammalian systems is 2 to 3 orders of magnitude less efficient compared with other proteins of similar size compromising reco...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Lactadherin inhibits enzyme complexes of blood coagulation by competing for phospholipid-binding sites
Lactadherin, a glycoprotein of the milk-fat globule membrane, contains tandem C domains with homology to discoidin-type lectins and to membrane-binding domains of blood-clotting factors V and VIII. We asked whether the structural homology confers the capacity to compete for the membrane-binding sites of factor VIII and factor V and to function as an anticoagulant. Our results indicate that lact...
متن کاملvon Willebrand factor: a marker of endothelial damage?
Von Willebrand factor (vWF), a large glycoprotein encoded by a gene on chromosome 12, is synthesized by vascular endothelial cells and circulates in human plasma at concentrations of 10 mg/mL.* In plasma, vWF forms a noncovalent complex with coagulation factor VIII, the protein encoded by a gene on the X chromosome that is deficient or defective in hemophilia A. This molecular complex is essent...
متن کاملHemostasis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology
We have previously reported that ectopically expressed factor VIII (FVIII) is stored within platelets and is released upon platelet activation. Studies by others in various cell lines have suggested that having von Willebrand factor (VWF) coexpression is necessary for FVIII granular storage and for its secretion. We tested the importance of VWF coexpression for ectopic storage of FVIII in plate...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Reduction of the antigenicity of factor VIII toward complex inhibitory antibody plasmas using multiply-substituted hybrid human/porcine factor VIII molecules
Factor VIII (fVIII) circulates as a heavy chain/light chain (A1-A2-B/ap-A3-C1-C2) heterodimer. The 41-residue light chain activation peptide, ap, is cleaved from fVIII during proteolytic activation by thrombin or factor Xa. We constructed 7 active recombinant hybrid B-domainless human/porcine fVIII molecules that contained combinations of porcine sequence replacements within the A2, ap-A3, and ...
