Description | Thrombin (MW 37kDa) is an allosteric serine protease with trypsin-like activity. |
In vitro | Low concentrations of thrombin and thrombin preconditioning yield the potential of rescuing cells and to induce survival of neurons and astrocytes exposed to various ischemic insults[1]. |
In vivo | Elevated thrombin activity was found in the brain slices from mice that were treated (in vitro and in vivo) with paraoxon. Increased levels of PAR-1 and pERK proteins and decreased prothrombin mRNA were found in the brains of paraoxon-treated mice. Furthermore, ex vivo and in vivo electrophysiological experiments showed that exposure to paraoxon causes elevated electrical activity in CA1 and CA3 regions of the hippocampus. Moreover, a specific PAR-1 antagonist (SCH79797) reduced this activity. Altogether, these results reveal the importance of thrombin and PAR-1 in paraoxon poisoning[2]. |
