Factor VIIa-induced interaction with integrin controls the release of tissue factor on extracellular vesicles from endothelial cells.

2019

Essentials Prothrombotic extracellular vesicles (EV) carry agonist pathway-specific proteomes Agonists for protease activated receptor (PAR) 2 signaling have distinct effects on EV composition PAR2 signaling rapidly generates prothrombotic EV and slowly EV with inactive tissue factor (TF) FVIIa integrin ligation restricts TF incorporation into EV from endothelial cells SUMMARY: Background Cell injury signal-induced activation and release of tissue factor (TF) on extracellular vesicles (EVs) from immune and vessel wall cells propagate local and systemic coagulation initiation. TF trafficking and release on EVs occurs in concert with the release of cell adhesion receptors, including integrin …
