General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function activated protein C has anti-apoptotic effects and improves survival in sepsis, activated protein C prevents endothelial cell apoptosis, induced by serum from patients with malaria or sepsis. Activated protein C alone lowers the endothelial cell apoptosis rate from 48% to 38% in the presence of patient serum, In combination with ascorbic acid, activated protein C lowers the apoptosis rate to 25% and in combination with ulinastatin to 23% Homo sapiens
