Biased agonism of protease-activated receptor-1 regulates thromboinflammation in murine sickle cell disease
19 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary hemoglobinopathy marked by hemolytic anemia and vaso-occlusive events (VOEs). Chronic endothelial activation, inflammation, and coagulation activation contribute to vascular congestion, VOEs, and end-organ damage. Coagulation proteases such as thrombin and activated protein C (APC) modulate inflammation and endothelial dysfunction by activating...
