Activated protein C decreases tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis-inducing ligand by an EPCR- independent mechanism involving Egr-1/Erk-1/2 activation

Background- APC is an antithrombotic and antiinflammatory serine protease that plays an important role in vascular function. We report that APC can suppress the proapoptotic mediator TRAIL in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, and we have investigated the signaling mechanism. APC inhibited endo...
