Tissue factor (TF) is a membrane-anchored protein that initiates the extrinsic cascade of blood coagulation. TF forms a complex with serine protease Factor VIIa, and then activates Factor X zymogen to Factor Xa, leading to the blood coagulation. Humanized anti-TF antibody hATR-5 strongly inhibits TF-initiated blood coagulation, and is of potential use for various thrombotic diseases ...
