Table 1. Table 1. Common Causes of Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation in Patients With Cancer Infections : Gram-negative bacteria. Meningococcus, Pseudomonas, Salmonella, Haemophilus ...

Tumors may also release necrotic tissue or tissue enzymes into the general circulation, thereby activating the coagulation cascade. DIC may also be related to blood transfusions, ...

Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2), an important paracrine growth factor, binds electrostatically with low micromolar affinity to heparan sulfates present on extracellular matrix proteins. A single ...

Sulfated glycosaminoglycans have a vast range of protein interactions relevant to the development of new biomaterials and pharmaceuticals, but their characterization and application is complicated ...

For inhibition of thrombin, heparin must bind to both the coagulation enzyme and AT, but binding to the enzyme is less important for inhibition of activated factor X (factor Xa; Figure 3). 21 ...

Interference with coagulation cascade may be a promising nephroprotective strategy against chemical nephrotoxicity. Introduction. Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) is one of acute renal failure (ARF) ...

In fact, the presence of full heparin dose did not give any evidence of advantages in regard to the parameters for the coagulation system. Consequently, completely heparin-coated circuits for ...
