General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | heparanase is an endoglycosidase that participates in morphogenesis, tissue repair, heparan sulphates turnover and immune response processes. It is overexpressed in tumor cells favoring the metastasis as it penetrates the endothelial layer that lines blood vessels and facilitates the metastasis by degradation of heparan sulphate proteoglycans of the extracellular matrix. Heparanase may also affect the hemostatic system in a non-enzymatic manner, up-regulating the expression of tissue factor, which is the initiator of blood coagulation, and dissociating tissue factor pathway inhibitor on the cell surface membrane of endothelial and tumor cells, thus resulting in a procoagulant state. Heparanase activates antithrombin through the binding to its heparin binding site. Activation of antithrombin, which is the most important endogenous anticoagulant, mainly accelerates factor Xa inhibition, supporting an allosteric activation effect. Heparanase may exert a non-enzymatic function interaction | Homo sapiens |
