Abstract excerpt
Essentials Tissue factor (TF) represents a central link between hemostasis and inflammation. We studied the roles of myeloid and airway epithelial TF in acid-caused acute lung injury (ALI). TF on myeloid cells displays a non-coagulatory role regulating the inflammatory response in ALI. Airway epithelial TF contributes to hemostatic functions, but is dispensable in ALI pathogenesis. SUMMARY: Introduction Acute...
