| Research Abstract |
The anticoagulant properties of vascular endothelial cells are regulated by various mechanisms. In this study, we focused on two proteins, TFPI and beta2-glycoprotein I, which are supposed to be closely associated with the anicoagulant property of endothelial cells. TFPI is a protease inhibitor with the ability to inhibit the initial reactions of the blood coagulation cascade. Beta-glycoprotein I has the ability to bind with various negatively-charged substances and plays major role in anti-phospholipid syndrome. Our purpose of this study is the development of the novel methods for these two proteins and the clinical application of these methods.
We prepared a specific monoclonal antibody for a complex of TFPI-Xa and established a method to measure the complex in plasma. We found that the level of the complex is significantly higher in DIC patients than in normal control.
We also prepared a specific monoclonal antibody for a nicked form of beta2-glycoprotein I and established a method to measure the nicked form in plasma. We found that the level of the nicked form is significantly higher in the patients with DIC and anti-cardiolipin antibody.
