| Abstract | The complex reactions of blood coagulation are balanced by several natural anticoagulants resulting in tuned hemostasis. During several decades, the knowledge base of the natural anticoagulants has greatly increased and we have also learned about antiinflammatory and cytoprotective activities expressed by antithrombin and activated protein C (APC). Some coagulation proteins have also been found to function as anticoagulants; e.g., thrombin when bound to thrombomodulin activates protein C. Another example is factor V (FV), which in addition to being a procofactor to FVa has emerged as an anticoagulant. The discovery of APC resistance, caused by FVLeiden, as a thrombosis risk factor resulted in the identification of FV as an APC cofactor working in synergy with protein S in the regulation of FVIIIa in the Xase complex. More recently, a natural anticoagulant FV splice isoform (FV-Short) was discovered when investigating the East Texas bleeding disorder. In FV-Short, the truncated B domain exposes a high-affinity binding site for tissue factor pathway inhibitor alpha (TFPIα), and together with protein S a high-affinity trimolecular complex is generated. The FXa-inhibitory activity of TFPIα is synergistically stimulated by FV-Short and protein S. The circulating FV-Short/protein S/TFPIα complex concentration is normally low (≈0.2 nM) but provides an anticoagulant threshold. In the East Texas bleeding, the concentration of the complex, and thus the threshold, is increased 10-fold, which results in bleeding manifestations. The anticoagulant properties of FV were discovered during investigations of individual patients and follow the great tradition of bed-to-bench and bench-to-bed research in the coagulation field. |
