About rNAPc2
About rNAPc2
Recombinant nematode anticoagulant protein c2 (rNAPc2) is a recombinant protein that interferes with the tissue factor/factor VIIa/factor Xa protease complex. This complex has been shown to play a role in activating the cellular signaling events leading to metastasis and angiogenesis in a variety of cancers.
In addition, rNAPc2 has been shown to have a potential anticoagulant effect. This effect results from its ability to prevent new thrombin generation by blocking the factor VIIa/tissue factor protease complex, which is the initial step of coagulation or blood clot formation.
