Summary Coagulopathy is recognized as a significant aspect of morbidity in COVID-19 patients. The clotting cascade is propagated by a series of proteases, including factor Xa and thrombin. Other host proteases, including TMPRSS2, are recognized to be important for cleavage activation of SARS-CoV-2 spike to promote viral entry. Using biochemical and cell-based assays, we demonstrate that factor Xa and thrombin can also directly cleave SARS-CoV-2 spike, enhancing viral entry. -

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Synthetic binding proteins are constructed using non-antibody molecular scaffolds. Over the last two decades, in-depth structural and functional analyses of synthetic binding proteins have improved combinatorial library designs and selection strategies, which have resulted in potent platforms that consistently generate binding proteins to diverse targets with affinity and specificity that rival those of antibodies. Favorable attributes of synthetic binding proteins, such as small size, freedom from disulfide bond formation and ease of making fusion proteins, have enabled their unique applications in protein science, cell biology and beyond. Here, we review recent studies that illustrate how synthetic binding proteins are powerful probes that can directly link structure and function, -

Schirmer, MD, PHD,* Magnus Baumhäkel, MD,* Hans-Ruprecht Neuberger, MD, PHD,* Stefan H. Hohnloser, MD,† Isabelle C. van Gelder, MD, PHD,‡§ Gregory Y. H. Lip, MD,ʈ Michael Böhm, MD* Homburg/Saar and Frankfurt, Germany; Groningen and Utrecht, the Netherlands; and Birmingham, England, United Kingdom Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac rhythm disorder and a major risk factor for ischemic stroke. Antithrombotic therapy using aspirin or vitamin K antagonists (VKA) is currently prescribed for prevention for ischemic stroke in patients with AF. A narrow therapeutic range and the need of regular monitoring of its antico- agulatory effect impair effectiveness and safety of VKA, causing a need for alternative anticoagulant drugs. Re- cently developed anticoagulants include direct thrombin antagonists such as dabigatran or factor Xa inhibitors such as rivaroxaban, apixaban, betrixaban, and edoxaban. Currently, data from a phase III clinical trial are avail- able for dabigatran only, which show the direct thrombin antagonist to be at least noninferior in efficacy to VKA for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with AF. This review focuses on current advances in the development of directly acting oral anticoagulant drugs and their potential to replace the VKA class of drugs in patients with AF. -
What Is/Are the Best Oral Anticoagulant/S for Primary Prevention, Treatment
What is/are the best oral anticoagulant/s for primary prevention, treatment and secondary prevention of venous thromboembolic disease, and for prevention of stroke in atrial fibrillation? Protocol Background and Rationale Importance of the health problem to the NHS Thrombosis followed by embolization to distant organs occurs in both arterial and venous circulation and these conditions can be treated or prevented by oral anticoagulant treatment. Venous thromboembolic disease Venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) (UK annual incidence 183 per 100,000) encompasses clot formation in deep veins of legs or pelvis (deep vein thrombosis (DVT; annual incidence 123 per 100,000), and their displacement to pulmonary arteries (pulmonary embolism (PE; annual incidence 60 per 100,000). Important risk factors for VTE include major surgery, particularly lower limb orthopaedic surgery and surgery for cancer, as well as hospitalization in acutely ill general medical patients (approximate incidence 15%). VTE costs the NHS £640 million and is responsible for approximately 30,000 (10%) deaths each year in hospitals in England. DVT is also an important cause of long-term morbidity, being a major risk factor for chronic leg ulceration. PE may also lead to long- term morbidity due to pulmonary hypertension. There is an approximately 30% risk of recurrence of VTE within 8 years. The risk of VTE during hospitalisation for surgical or medical treatment can be reduced by low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), fonaparinux or unfractionated heparin.1 Warfarin is the most frequently prescribed anticoagulant for the initial treatment and for the long-term secondary prevention of VTE in those deemed to be at high risk of recurrence.
