Abstract
BACKGROUND Antithrombin (AT) is the main physiological anticoagulant involved in hemostasis. Hereditary AT deficiency is a rare autosomal dominant thrombotic disease mainly caused by mutations in SERPINC1, which was usually manifested as venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. In this study, we analyzed the clinical characteristics and screened for mutant genes in two pedigrees with hereditary AT deficiency, and the functional effects of the pathogenic mutations were evaluated. METHODS Candidate gene variants were analyzed by next-generation sequencing to screen pathogenic mutations in probands, followed by segregation analysis in families by Sanger sequencing. Mutant and wild-type plasmids were constructed and transfected into HEK293T cells to observe protein expression and cellular localization of SERPINC1. The structure and function of the mutations were analyzed by bioinformatic analyses. RESULTS The proband of pedigree A with AT deficiency carried a heterozygous frameshift mutation c.1377delC (p.Asn460Thrfs*20) in SERPINC1 (NM000488.3), a 1377C base deletion in exon 7 resulting in a backward shift of the open reading frame, with termination after translation of 20 residues, and a different residue sequence translated after the frameshift. Bioinformatics analysis suggests that the missing amino acid sequence caused by the frameshift mutation might disrupt the disulfide bond between Cys279 and Cys462 and affect the structural function of the protein. This newly discovered variant is not currently included in the ClinVar and HGMD databases. p.Arg229* resulted in a premature stop codon in exon 4, and bioinformatics analysis suggests that the truncated protein structure lost its domain of interaction with factor IX (Ala414 site) after the deletion of nonsense mutations. However, considering the AT truncation protein resulting from the p.Arg229* variant loss a great proportion of the molecule, we speculate the variant may affect two functional domains HBS and RCL and lack of the corresponding function. The thrombophilia and decreased-AT-activity phenotypes of the two pedigrees were separated from their genetic variants. After lentiviral plasmid transfection into HEK293T cells, the expression level of AT protein decreased in the constructed c.1377delC mutant cells compared to that in the wild-type, which was not only reduced in c.685C > T mutant cells but also showed a significant band at 35 kDa, suggesting a truncated protein. Immunofluorescence localization showed no significant differences in protein localization before and after the mutation. CONCLUSIONS The p.Asn460Thrfs*20 and p.Arg229* variants of SERPINC1 were responsible for the two hereditary AT deficiency pedigrees, which led to AT deficiency by different mechanisms. The p.Asn460Thrfs*20 variant is reported for the first time.

Abstract
Apical surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) have unique endothelial roles. Inflammation and shear stress derangement can alter HSPG synthesis and sulfation. Reduced HSPG expression impacts mechanisms that regulate endothelial cell homeostasis. Changes to endothelial glycocalyx HSPG sulfation are vast and contextually dependent. Targeting endothelial HSPG biosynthesis and sulfation are promising therapeutic strategies.
The glycocalyx attached to the apical surface of vascular endothelial cells is a rich network of proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans, and glycoproteins with instrumental roles in vascular homeostasis. Given their molecular complexity and ability to interact with the intra- and extracellular environment, heparan sulfate proteoglycans uniquely contribute to the glycocalyx’s role in regulating endothelial permeability, mechanosignaling, and ligand recognition by cognate cell surface receptors. Much attention has recently been devoted to the enzymatic shedding of heparan sulfate proteoglycans from the endothelial glycocalyx and its impact on vascular function. However, other molecular modifications to heparan sulfate proteoglycans are possible and may have equal or complementary clinical significance. In this narrative review, we focus on putative mechanisms driving non-proteolytic changes in heparan sulfate proteoglycan expression and alterations in the sulfation of heparan sulfate side chains within the endothelial glycocalyx. We then discuss how these specific changes to the endothelial glycocalyx impact endothelial cell function and highlight therapeutic strategies to target or potentially reverse these pathologic changes.

Abstract
Antithrombin (AT) is a serine protease inhibitor, its activity is highly accelerated by heparin. Mutations at the heparin-binding region lead to functional defect, type II heparin-binding site (IIHBS) AT deficiency. The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the molecular background of AT Budapest 3 (p.Leu131Phe, ATBp3), AT Basel (p.Pro73Leu), and AT Padua (p.Arg79His) mutations. Advanced in silico methods and heparin-binding studies of recombinant AT proteins using surface plasmon resonance method were used. Crossed immunoelectrophoresis and Differential Scanning Fluorimetry (NanoDSF) were performed in plasma samples. Heparin affinity of AT Padua was the lowest (KD = 1.08 × 10-6 M) and had the most severe consequences affecting the allosteric pathways of activation, moreover significant destabilizing effects on AT were also observed. KD values for AT Basel, ATBp3 and wild-type AT were 7.64 × 10-7 M, 2.15 × 10-8 M and 6.4 × 10-10 M, respectively. Heparin-binding of AT Basel was slower, however once the complex was formed the mutation had only minor effect on the secondary and tertiary structures. Allosteric activation of ATBp3 was altered, moreover decreased thermostability in ATBp3 homozygous plasma and increased fluctuations in multiple regions of ATBp3 were observed by in silico methods suggesting the presence of a quantitative component in the pathogenicity of this mutation due to molecular instability.

Abstract
Antithrombin (AT) is a major plasma glycoprotein of the serpin superfamily that regulates the proteolytic activity of the procoagulant proteases of both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways. Two important structural features that participate in the regulatory function of AT include a mobile reactive center loop that binds to active site of coagulation proteases, trapping them in the form of inactive covalent complexes, and a basic D-helix that binds to therapeutic heparins and heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) on vascular endothelial cells. The binding of D-helix of AT by therapeutic heparins promotes the reactivity of the serpin with coagulation proteases by several orders of magnitude by both a conformational activation of the serpin and a template (bridging) mechanism. In addition to its essential anticoagulant function, AT elicits a potent anti-inflammatory signaling response when it binds to distinct vascular endothelial cell HSPGs, thereby inducing prostacyclin synthesis. Syndecans-4 has been found as a specific membrane-bound HSPG receptor on endothelial cells that relays the signaling effect of AT to the relevant second messenger molecules in the signal transduction pathways inside the cell. However, following cleavage by coagulation proteases and/or by spontaneous conversion to a latent form, AT loses both its anti-inflammatory activity and high-affinity interaction with heparin and HSPGs. Interestingly, these low-affinity heparin conformers of AT elicit potent proapoptotic and antiangiogenic activities by also binding to specific HSPGs by unknown mechanisms. This review article will summarize current knowledge about mechanisms through which different conformers of AT exert their serine protease inhibitory and intracellular signaling functions in these biological pathways.

Abstract
Antithrombin (AT) is a serine protease inhibitor that regulates the activity of coagulation proteases of both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways. We identified an AT-deficient patient with a heterozygous Thr90Ser (T90S) mutation who experiences recurrent venous thrombosis. To understand the molecular basis of the clotting defect, we expressed AT-T90S in mammalian cells, purified it to homogeneity, and characterized its properties in established kinetics, binding, and coagulation assays. The possible effect of mutation on the AT structure was also evaluated by molecular modeling. Results demonstrate the inhibitory activity of AT-T90S toward thrombin and factor Xa has been impaired three- to fivefold in both the absence and presence of heparin. The affinity of heparin for AT-T90S has been decreased by four- to fivefold. Kinetic analysis revealed the stoichiometry of AT-T90S inhibition of both thrombin and factor Xa has been elevated by three- to fourfold in both the absence and presence of heparin, suggesting that the reactivity of coagulation proteases with AT-T90S has been elevated in the substrate pathway. The anticoagulant activity of AT-T90S has been significantly impaired as analyzed in the AT-deficient plasma supplemented with AT-T90S. The anti-inflammatory effect of AT-T90S was also decreased. Structural analysis predicts the shorter side-chain of Ser in AT-T90S has a destabilizing effect on the structure of AT and/or the AT-protease complex, possibly increasing the size of an internal cavity and altering a hydrogen-bonding network that modulates conformations of the allosterically linked heparin-binding site and reactive center loop of the serpin. This mutational effect increases the reactivity of AT-T90S with coagulation proteases in the substrate pathway.

Abstract
The activity of antithrombin (AT), a serpin protease inhibitor, is enhanced by heparin and heparin analogs against its target proteases, mainly thrombin, factors Xa and IXa. Considerable amount of information is available on the multistep mechanism of the heparin pentasaccharide binding and conformational activation. However, much of the details were inferred from 'static' structures obtained by X-ray diffraction. Moreover, limited information is available for the early steps of binding mechanism other than kinetic studies with various ligands. To gain insights into these processes, we performed enhanced sampling molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using the Gaussian Accelerated Molecular Dynamics (GAMD) method, applied previously in drug binding studies. We were able to observe the binding of the pentasaccharide idraparinux to a 'non-activated' AT conformation in two separate trajectories with low root mean square deviation (RMSD) values compared to X-ray structures of the bound state. These trajectories along with further simulations of the AT-pentasaccharide complex provided insights into the mechanisms of multiple conformational transitions, including the expulsion of the hinge region, the extension of helix D and the conformational behavior of the reactive center loop (RCL). We could also confirm the high stability of helix P in non-activated AT conformations, such states might play an important role in heparin binding. 'Generalized correlation' matrices revealed possible paths of allosteric signal propagation to the binding sites for the target proteases, factors Xa and IXa. Enhanced MD simulations of ligand binding to AT may assist the design of new anticoagulant drugs.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the molecular basis of hereditary antithrombin (AT) deficiency in a Chinese family. It will help us understand the pathogenesis of this type of disease. METHOD AT activity (AT:A) and the AT antigen (AT:Ag) level were tested by chromogenic substrate and immunoturbidimetry, respectively. To identify the novel mutations, SERPINC1 gene sequencing was carried out. The possible impact of the mutations was analyzed by model and bioinformatic analyses. RESULTS AT:A and the AT:Ag level of the proband were 43% and 113 mg/L (normal range: 98-119% and 250-360 mg/L), respectively. Sequencing analysis revealed compound heterozygous mutations, including a frameshift mutation (c.318_319insT) resulting in Asn75stop and a missense mutation (c.922G>T) resulting in Gly276Cys. The bioinformatic and model analyses indicated that these mutations may disrupt the function and structure of the AT protein. CONCLUSION We detected 2 novel heterozygous mutations (c.318_319insT and c.922G>T) in the proband, and these were associated with decreased AT:A.
