Does activated protein C attenuate inflammation and impair TNF signaling in vascular endothelial cells?
Activated protein C exerts protective anti-inflammatory effects in vascular endothelial cells by engaging EPCR, ERK, and NF-κB pathways to impair TNF signaling.
Guitton et al. (2011) studied this question.
