The roles of cofactors protein S and factor V in the TFPI anticoagulant pathway
Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) is a principal inhibitor of the initiation of coagulation through inhibition of factor (F) Xa and tissue factor (TF)/FVIIa. While TFPI on its own is a poor inhibitor of FXa, protein S acts as cofactor for TFPI through interaction with TFPI Kunitz 3 domain, grea...
