Resistin impairs activation of protein C by suppressing EPCR and increasing SP1 expression
Endothelial cells are vital to blood coagulation and maintain whole body hemostasis. Binding of endothelial cells to endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR) and thrombomodulin (TM) is essential to the formation of activated protein C (APC), one of the key factors regulating blood coagulation. In our s...
