Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor Ixolaris Improves Disease Outcome in Progressive SIVsab-infected Pigtail Macaques Tianyu He Non-pathogenic Pathogenic Pandrea I, et al. Blood. 2012
Tissue factor (TF) expression increases in chronic SIV infection. Funderburg NT, et al. Blood. 2010 Tissue factor (TF) expression increases in chronic SIV infection. TF expression increases not only in blood, but also in mucosal tissue.
In vitro specificity of Ixolaris In vivo efficacy of Ixolaris Conclusion: TF bridges hypercoagulation and IA/INFL during chronic SIV infection. Blocking TF with Ixolaris improves clinical outcome of progressive SIV infection.
Conclusion Chronic HIV/SIV Infection Immune activation and inflammation Comorbidities Hypercoagulation
