Abstract excerpt
Tissue factor is a cellular membrane glycoprotein that acts as a cofactor for Factor VIIa-catalyzed activation of Factors X and IX in the extrinsic blood coagulation pathway. We prepared fourteen murine monoclonal antibodies to human tissue factor (designated MTF-1 to -14), and purified tissue factor from human placenta by immunoaffinity chromatography using the antibody-coupled Sepharose 4B. The antibodies were...
