Is thrombin-Induced Inflammation in Human Decidual Cells Affected By Heparin?
Heparins do not appear to affect basal or Thr-induced expression of TF or inflammatory cytokines in human term DCs. Additional work is needed to determine whether nonanticoagulant heparins can reduce inflammation and membrane weakening due to bleeding in pregnancy.
This study confirmed the complex pathophysiology of COPD-related osteoporosis, including the influence of gender, clinical phenotype and genetic factors.
