Endothelial-dependent S-Sulfhydration of tissue factor pathway inhibitor regulates blood coagulation. Redox Biol 2023; 62:102694. [PMID: 37030150 PMCID: PMC10119959 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2023.102694] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2023] [Accepted: 04/02/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) is an important regulator of coagulation and a link between inflammation and thrombosis. Here we investigated whether endothelial cell-driven oxidative post-translational modifications could have an impact on TFPI activity. We focused on S-sulfhydration, which is a hydrogen sulfide-dependent post-translational modification that, in endothelial cells, is regulated by the enzyme cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE). The study made use of human primary endothelial cells and blood from healthy individuals or subjects with atherosclerosis as well as from mice lacking endothelial CSE. TFPI was S-sulfhydrated in endothelial cells from healthy individuals and mice, while the loss of endothelial CSE expression/activity reduced its modification. Non-S-sulfhydrated TFPI was no longer able to interact with factor Xa, which facilitated the activation of tissue factor. Similarly, non-S-sulfhydratable TFPI mutants bound less protein S, while supplementation with hydrogen sulfide donors, preserved TFPI activity. Phenotypically, loss of TFPI S-sulfhydration increased clot retraction, suggesting that this post-translational modification is a new endothelial cell-dependent mechanism that contributes to the regulation of blood coagulation.

Abstract
We report a case of Behçet's disease (BD) with a newly identified tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) gene mutation. The patient suffered from recurrent deep vein thrombosis and dural sinus thrombosis which could not be relieved by constant anticoagulation therapy. Slight relapsing oral lesion was the initial manifestation of BD but was neglected. Genital ulcers and ocular symptoms were manifest 8-month later than vascular involvement. The patient was diagnosed with BD at last and a novel mutation in TFPI was identified simultaneously. After administration with azathioprine and dexamethasone, the clinical symptoms were quickly gone and no relapse was found during 7-month follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) polymorphisms are known to be involved in venous thrombosis; however, any correlation between the TFPI polymorphisms rs8176592, rs10931292, and rs10153820 and venous thrombosis remains controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to elucidate the relationship between these TFPI polymorphisms and the susceptibility to venous thrombosis. METHODS A literature search for relevant studies was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang Med Online databases. Odds ratios (ORs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated using fixed-effect/random-effect models by the STATA 12.0 software. Sources of heterogeneity were analyzed by subgroup analysis. RESULTS Eleven case-control studies involving 3740 subjects (1362 venous thrombosis patients and 2378 healthy controls) were included. The TFPI rs8176592 polymorphism was associated with increased risk of venous thrombosis in the whole population, while no significant association was found between rs10931292/rs10153820 and venous thrombosis. In subgroup analysis based on ethnicity, an increased risk was observed with rs8176592 polymorphism in Asians (Recessive model, OR = 1.48, 95% CI = 1.06-2.07, P = .023). An increased risk associated with rs10931292 was identified in non-Asians (Recessive model, OR = 1.42, 95% CI = 1.03-1.97, P = .033). No significant association was found in either Asians or non-Asians with the rs10153820 polymorphism. In subgroup analysis based on source of controls, increased risks were identified in the hospital-based group with rs8176592 polymorphism and in the population-based group with rs10931292 polymorphism, whereas decreased risk was identified in the hospital-based group with the rs10931292 and rs10153820 polymorphisms. CONCLUSION Meta-analysis suggested that different TFPI polymorphisms may have different associations with venous thrombosis. TFPI rs8176592 polymorphism may increase the risk of venous thrombosis, especially in Asians and hospital-based patients. The TFPI rs10931292 polymorphism may increase the venous thrombosis risk for both non-Asians and population-based patients. Moreover, rs10931292 and rs10153820 polymorphisms of TFPI may decrease the risk of venous thrombosis for hospital-based patients.

Abstract
The tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) gene encodes a protease inhibitor with a critical role in regulation of blood coagulation. Some genomic variants in TFPI were previously associated with plasma TFPI levels, however, it remains to be further determined whether TFPI variants are associated with other coagulation factors. In this study, we carried out a large population-based study with 2313 study subjects for blood coagulation data, including fibrinogen levels, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and thrombin time (TT). We identified significant association of TFPI variant rs10931292 (a functional promoter variant with reduced transactivation) with increased plasma fibrinogen levels (P = 0.017 under a recessive model), but not with PT, APTT or TT (P > 0.05). Using a large case-control association study population with 4479 CAD patients and 3628 controls, we identified significant association between rs10931292 and CAD under a recessive model (OR 1.23, P = 0.005). For the first time, we show that a TFPI variant is significantly associated with fibrinogen levels and risk of CAD. Our finding contributes significantly to the elucidation of the genetic basis and biological pathways responsible for fibrinogen levels and development of CAD.

Abstract
Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) regulates the formation of intravascular blood clots, which manifest clinically as ischemic heart disease, ischemic stroke, and venous thromboembolism (VTE). TFPI plasma levels are heritable, but the genetics underlying TFPI plasma level variability are poorly understood. Herein we report the first genome-wide association scan (GWAS) of TFPI plasma levels, conducted in 251 individuals from five extended French-Canadian Families ascertained on VTE. To improve discovery, we also applied a hypothesis-driven (HD) GWAS approach that prioritized single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in (1) hemostasis pathway genes, and (2) vascular endothelial cell (EC) regulatory regions, which are among the highest expressers of TFPI. Our GWAS identified 131 SNPs with suggestive evidence of association (P-value < 5 × 10-8 ), but no SNPs reached the genome-wide threshold for statistical significance. Hemostasis pathway genes were not enriched for TFPI plasma level associated SNPs (global hypothesis test P-value = 0.147), but EC regulatory regions contained more TFPI plasma level associated SNPs than expected by chance (global hypothesis test P-value = 0.046). We therefore stratified our genome-wide SNPs, prioritizing those in EC regulatory regions via stratified false discovery rate (sFDR) control, and reranked the SNPs by q-value. The minimum q-value was 0.27, and the top-ranked SNPs did not show association evidence in the MARTHA replication sample of 1,033 unrelated VTE cases. Although this study did not result in new loci for TFPI, our work lays out a strategy to utilize epigenomic data in prioritization schemes for future GWAS studies.

Regulation of TFPIα expression by miR-27a/b-3p in human endothelial cells under normal conditions and in response to androgens. Sci Rep 2017; 7:43500.

Abstract
The increased risk of cardiovascular events in older men is multifactorial, but the significant reduction of testosterone levels has been involved. As this hormone regulates the expression of TFPI by unknown mechanisms, we aimed to evaluate the role of miRNAs in the regulation of TFPIα expression under normal conditions and in response to androgens. In silico studies allowed the selection of 4 miRNAs as potential TFPIα regulators. Only miR-27a/b-3p significantly reduced TFPIα expression in two endothelial cell lines. Luciferase assays demonstrated a direct interaction between miR-27a/b-3p and TFPI 3′UTR. Ex vivo analysis of TFPI and miRNA levels in 74 HUVEC samples from healthy subjects, showed a significant and inverse correlation between TFPI and miR-27a-3p. Moreover, anticoagulant activity of TFPIα from cells supernatants decreased ~30% with miR-27a/b-3p and increased ~50% with anti-miR-27a/b-3p. Interestingly, treatment of EA.hy926 with a physiological dose of dihydrotestosterone (30 nM) significantly increased (~40%) TFPIα expression with a parallel decreased (~50%) of miR-27a/b-3p expression. In concordance, increased levels of miR-27a/b-3p normalized the up-regulation induced by testosterone. Our results suggest that testosterone is a hinge in miR-27/TFPIα regulation axis. Future studies are needed to investigate whether testosterone variations are involved in a miR-27/TFPIα dysregulation that could increase the cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Thrombosis is common in Behçet's Syndrome (BS), and there is a need for better biomarkers for risk assessment. As microparticles expressing Tissue Factor (TF) can contribute to thrombosis in preclinical models, we investigated whether plasma microparticles expressing Tissue Factor (TF) are increased in BS. We compared blood plasma from 72 healthy controls with that from 88 BS patients (21 with a history of thrombosis (Th+) and 67 without (Th-). Using flow cytometry, we found that the total plasma MP numbers were increased in BS compared to HC, as were MPs expressing TF and Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor (TFPI) (all p < 0.0001). Amongst BS patients, the Th+ group had increased total and TF positive MP numbers (both p ≤ 0.0002) compared to the Th- group, but had a lower proportion of TFPI positive MPs (p < 0.05). Consequently, the ratio of TFPI positive to TF positive MP counts (TFPI/TF) was significantly lower in Th+ versus Th- BS patients (p = 0.0002), and no patient with a TFPI/TF MP ratio >0.7 had a history of clinical thrombosis. We conclude that TF-expressing MP are increased in BS and that an imbalance between microparticulate TF and TFPI may predispose to thrombosis.

Abstract
Essentials Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) regulates the blood coagulation cascade. We replicated previously reported linkage of TFPI plasma levels to the chromosome 2q region. The putative causal locus, rs62187992, was associated with TFPI plasma levels and thrombosis. rs62187992 was marginally associated with TFPI expression in human aortic endothelial cells. Click to hear Ann Gil's presentation on new insights into thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor SUMMARY: Background Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) regulates fibrin clot formation, and low TFPI plasma levels increase the risk of arterial thromboembolism and venous thromboembolism (VTE). TFPI plasma levels are also heritable, and a previous linkage scan implicated the chromosome 2q region, but no specific genes. Objectives To replicate the finding of the linkage region in an independent sample, and to identify the causal locus. Methods We first performed a linkage analysis of microsatellite markers and TFPI plasma levels in 251 individuals from the F5L Family Study, and replicated the finding of the linkage peak on chromosome 2q (LOD = 3.06). We next defined a follow-up region that included 112 603 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) under the linkage peak, and meta-analyzed associations between these SNPs and TFPI plasma levels across the F5L Family Study and the Marseille Thrombosis Association (MARTHA) Study, a study of 1033 unrelated VTE patients. SNPs with false discovery rate q-values of < 0.10 were tested for association with TFPI plasma levels in 892 patients with coronary artery disease in the AtheroGene Study. Results and Conclusions One SNP, rs62187992, was associated with TFPI plasma levels in all three samples (β = + 0.14 and P = 4.23 × 10-6 combined; β = + 0.16 and P = 0.02 in the F5L Family Study; β = + 0.13 and P = 6.3 × 10-4 in the MARTHA Study; β = + 0.17 and P = 0.03 in the AtheroGene Study), and contributed to the linkage peak in the F5L Family Study. rs62187992 was also associated with clinical VTE (odds ratio 0.90, P = 0.03) in the INVENT Consortium of > 7000 cases and their controls, and was marginally associated with TFPI expression (β = + 0.19, P = 0.08) in human aortic endothelial cells, a primary site of TFPI synthesis. The biological mechanisms underlying these associations remain to be elucidated.
