Thrombomodulin is present in human plasma and urine.
Thrombomodulin is an endothelial cell membrane protein that is a cofactor required for the rapid activation of plasma protein C. We now report that plasma and urine of normal subjects contains a modified form of thrombomodulin that is soluble. The levels measured by radioimmunoassay were 292 +/- 60 ng thrombomodulin/ml plasma and 102 +/- 38 ng thrombomodulin/ml urine. Thrombomodulin was isolate...
متن کاملSoluble thrombomodulin activity and soluble thrombomodulin antigen in plasma.
Endothelial cell membrane-bound thrombomodulin (TM) plays a critical role as a cofactor in the protein C pathway, important in regulating coagulation as well as inflammation. Heterogeneous soluble TM fragments circulate in the plasma and are found at increased levels in various diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and in ischemic and/or inflammatory endothelial injuries. The an...
متن کاملPlasma thrombomodulin in health and diseases.
Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by immunoblot analysis of plasma thrombomodulin concentrate revealed that four degraded forms of thrombomodulin with different molecular weights are present in plasma. Plasma concentrations of thrombomodulin in patients with various diseases were measured by two methods of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using monoclonal antib...
متن کاملImmunoreactive parathyroid hormone-related protein is present in human seminal plasma and is of prostate origin.
Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is a regulatory peptide that has been associated with normal fetal growth and differentiation as well as the regulation of fetal calcium. We recently demonstrated the expression of PTHrP in neuroendocrine cells of human prostatic glands. The present study was undertaken to determine if semen contained PTHrP and to determine if there were any differenc...
متن کاملSoluble cytokine receptors are present in normal human urine
Affinity chromatography of crude human urinary proteins on either human rIL-6, human rIFN-gamma, or anti-IFN-gamma-R mAb yielded the two respective soluble receptors in significant quantities. A single sequence of 30 amino acid residues was obtained by NH2-terminal microsequencing of the protein peak purified in tandem by affinity chromatography on an IL-6 column and reversed-phase HPLC. This s...
