Abstract

Recent studies have focused on the potential role of natural anticoagulants in modulating host responses to endotoxin. The natural anticoagulants that have drawn the greatest attention are antithrombin, protein C, and tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI). Interest in this area is spurred by
