General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function activated protein C inhibits high mobility group box 1 signaling in endothelial cells, protective effects of APC are mediated through endothelial cell protein C receptor and protease-activated receptor 1, PAR-1. APC potently inhibits the release of HMGB1, downregulates the expression of HMGB1 receptors, and downregulates the adhesion of the monocytic cell line, THP-1, to HMGB1-activated endothelial cells, and it also down-regulates the cell surface expression of all 3 HMGB1 receptors in endothelial cells Homo sapiens
