Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor 2 Is Found in Skin and Its C-Terminal Region Encodes for Antibacterial Activity

BACKGROUND: Tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 (TFPI-2) is a matrix-associated serine protease inhibitor with an enigmatic function in vivo. Here, we describe that TFPI-2 is present in fibrin of wounds and also expressed in skin, where it is up-regulated upon wounding. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDI...
