Abstract
Enhanced mucosal sealing around titanium implants can reduce complications such as peri-implantitis. The present study aims to investigate the mucosal healing at the early stage around the protease activated receptor 4-agonist peptide (PAR4-AP)- or perpendicularly protruded type I collagen (pCol)-treated titanium implants. A total of 72 implants were placed in 36 rats in the study. Following extractions, two tissue-level implants among the following three different surfaces, PAR4-AP-coated (PAR4 group, n = 24), pCol-treated (pCol group, n = 24) and non-treated (control group, n = 24) ones, were placed in the maxillae of each rat based on a split-mouth design. The specimens retrieved at 8 h (n = 8 per group), 3 days (n = 8 per group), and 2 weeks (n = 8 per group), were immunostained and tissue-cleared, and the signals of laminin-5 and collagen fibers were observed under multiphoton microscopy. Statistical analyses were performed using linear mixed model with post hoc tests to compare differences between the groups. While there was no intergroup difference at 8 h, the laminin-5 at 3 days was more abundant near the PAR4-group-surface, and its area was significantly larger in the PAR4 group (0.0204 ± 0.0194 mm2 ) than the control (0.0019 ± 0.0025 mm2 , p = .001) and pCol (0.0023 ± 0.0022 mm2 , p < .001) groups. The pCol group showed a significantly larger area of collagen fibers (0.0230 ± 0.0148 mm2 ) compared to the control (0.0035 ± 0.0051 mm2 , p = .002) and PAR4 (0.0031 ± 0.0057 mm2 , p < .001) groups at 3 days. At 3 days and 2 weeks, the collagen fiber orientation of the pCol group showed a more perpendicular manner compared to the control and PAR4 groups. The signal of basal lamina and collagen fibers were stronger around the PAR4-AP- and pCol-treated titanium surfaces, respectively during the early healing stage. This could have implications for improved mucosal sealing around dental implants, potentially reducing complications such as peri-implantitis.

Abstract
Blood coagulation is initiated in response to blood vessel injury or proinflammatory stimuli, which activate coagulation factors to coordinate complex biochemical and cellular responses necessary for clot formation. In addition to these critical physiologic functions, plasma protein factors activated during coagulation mediate a spectrum of signaling responses via receptor-binding interactions on different cell types. In this review, we describe examples and mechanisms of coagulation factor signaling. We detail the molecular basis for cell signaling mediated by coagulation factor proteases via the protease-activated receptor family, considering new insights into the role of protease-specific cleavage sites, cofactor and coreceptor interactions, and distinct signaling intermediate interactions in shaping protease-activated receptor signaling diversity. Moreover, we discuss examples of how injury-dependent conformational activation of other coagulation proteins, such as fibrin(ogen) and von Willebrand factor, decrypts their signaling potential, unlocking their capacity to contribute to aberrant proinflammatory signaling. Finally, we consider the role of coagulation factor signaling in disease development and the status of pharmacologic approaches to either attenuate or enhance coagulation factor signaling for therapeutic benefit, emphasizing new approaches to inhibit deleterious coagulation factor signaling without impacting hemostatic activity.

Abstract
Background Factor Xa (FXa) not only plays an active role in the coagulation cascade but also exerts non-hemostatic signaling through the protease-activated receptors (PARs). This study aimed to investigate whether the FXa inhibitor, Rivaroxaban (RIV), attenuates adverse cardiac remodeling in rats with myocardial infarction (MI) and to identify the underlying molecular mechanisms it uses. Methods An MI model was induced in eight-week-old, male Wistar rats, by permanent ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. MI rats were randomly assigned to receive RIV or protease-activated receptors 2-antagonist (PAR-2 antagonist, FSLLRY) treatment for four weeks. Histological staining, echocardiography and hemodynamics were used to assess the cardioprotective effects of RIV. Meanwhile, pharmacological approaches of agonist and inhibitor were used to observe the potential pathways in which RIV exerts antifibrotic effects in neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). In addition, real-time PCR and western blot analysis were performed to examine the associated signaling pathways. Results RIV presented favorable protection of left ventricular (LV) cardiac function in MI rats by significantly reducing myocardial infarct size, ameliorating myocardial pathological damage and improving left ventricular (LV) remodeling. Similar improvements in the PAR-2 antagonist FSLLRY and RIV groups suggested that RIV protects against cardiac dysfunction in MI rats by ameliorating PAR-2 activation. Furthermore, an in vitro model of fibrosis was then generated by applying angiotensin II (Ang II) to neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). Consistent with the findings of the animal experiments, RIV and FSLLRY inhibited the expression of fibrosis markers and suppressed the intracellular upregulation of transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), as well as its downstream Smad2/3 phosphorylation effectors in Ang II-induced fibrosis, and PAR-2 agonist peptide (PAR-2 AP) reversed the inhibition effect of RIV. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate that RIV attenuates MI-induced cardiac remodeling and improves heart function, partly by inhibiting the activation of the PAR-2 and TGF-β1 signaling pathways.

Abstract
Proteases are signaling molecules that specifically control cellular functions by cleaving protease-activated receptors (PARs). The four known PARs are members of the large family of G protein-coupled receptors. These transmembrane receptors control most physiological and pathological processes and are the target of a large proportion of therapeutic drugs. Signaling proteases include enzymes from the circulation; from immune, inflammatory epithelial, and cancer cells; as well as from commensal and pathogenic bacteria. Advances in our understanding of the structure and function of PARs provide insights into how diverse proteases activate these receptors to regulate physiological and pathological processes in most tissues and organ systems. The realization that proteases and PARs are key mediators of disease, coupled with advances in understanding the atomic level structure of PARs and their mechanisms of signaling in subcellular microdomains, has spurred the development of antagonists, some of which have advanced to the clinic. Herein we review the discovery, structure, and function of this receptor system, highlight the contribution of PARs to homeostatic control, and discuss the potential of PAR antagonists for the treatment of major diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antiplatelet therapy is a cornerstone in the secondary prevention of ischemic events following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The new P2Y12 receptor inhibitors prasugrel and ticagrelor have been shown to improve patients' outcomes. Whether or not these drugs have equal efficacy in individuals with or without diabetes is disputed. Furthermore, platelets can be activated by thrombin, which is, at least in part, independent of P2Y12 -mediated platelet activation. Protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1 and -4 are thrombin receptors on human platelets. We sought to compare the in vitro efficacy of prasugrel (n = 121) and ticagrelor (n = 99) to inhibit PAR-mediated platelet aggregation in individuals with type 2 diabetes (prasugrel n = 26, ticagrelor n = 29). MATERIALS AND METHODS We compared P2Y12 -, PAR-1- and PAR-4-mediated platelet aggregation as assessed by multiple electrode platelet aggregometry between prasugrel- and ticagrelor-treated patients without and with type 2 diabetes who underwent acute PCI. RESULTS Overall, there were no differences of P2Y12 -, PAR-1- and PAR-4-mediated platelet aggregation between prasugrel- and ticagrelor-treated patients. However, both drugs inhibited P2Y12 -mediated platelet aggregation stronger, and thereby to a similar extent in patients with type 2 diabetes than in those without diabetes. There was no correlation between either P2Y12 -, or PAR-1- or PAR-4-mediated platelet aggregation and levels of HbA1c or the body mass index (BMI). However, we observed patients with high residual platelet reactivity in response to PAR-1 and PAR-4 stimulation in all cohorts. CONCLUSION Prasugrel and ticagrelor inhibit P2Y12 - and PAR-mediated platelet aggregation in individuals with diabetes to a similar extent, irrespective of HbA1c levels and BMI.

Abstract
Tissue factor (TF) is the cellular receptor for clotting factor VIIa (FVIIa), and the formation of TF-FVIIa complexes on cell surfaces triggers the activation of the coagulation cascade and the cell signaling. Our recent studies have shown that a majority of TF resides in various intracellular compartments, predominantly in the Golgi, and that FVIIa binding to cell surface TF induces TF endocytosis and mobilizes the Golgi TF pool to translocate it to the cell surface. This present study is aimed to elucidate the mechanisms involved in TF endocytosis and its mobilization from the Golgi. Activation of protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) and PAR2 by specific peptide agonists and proteases, independent of FVIIa, mobilized TF from the Golgi store and increased the cell surface expression of TF. Blocking PAR2 activation, but not PAR1, with neutralizing antibodies fully attenuated the FVIIa-induced TF mobilization. Consistent with these data, silencing the PAR2 receptor, and not PAR1, abrogated the FVIIa-mediated TF mobilization. In contrast to their effect on TF mobilization, PAR1 and PAR2 activation, in the absence of FVIIa, had no effect on TF endocytosis. However, PAR2 activation is found to be critical for the FVIIa-induced TF endocytosis. Overall the data herein provide novel insights into the role of PARs in regulating cell surface TF expression.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Thrombin or tryptase cleavage of protease-activated receptors (PAR) on human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) results in activation of a membrane-associated, calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) that selectively hydrolyzes plasmalogen phospholipids. Atherosclerotic plaque rupture results in a coronary ischemic event in which HCAEC in the ischemic area would be exposed to increased thrombin concentrations in addition to tryptase released by activated mast cells present in the plaque. MATERIALS AND METHODS HCAEC were stimulated with thrombin or tryptase in the absence or presence of bromoenol lactone (BEL), a selective iPLA2 inhibitor, and iPLA2 activation, accumulation of biologically active membrane phospholipid-derived metabolites, upregulation of cell surface P-selectin expression and neutrophil adherence were measured. RESULTS HCAEC exposed to thrombin or tryptase stimulation demonstrated an increase in iPLA2 activity and arachidonic acid release. Additionally, stimulated HCAEC demonstrated increased platelet-activating factor (PAF) production and cell surface P-selectin expression, resulting in increased adhesion of neutrophils to HCAEC monolayers. Pretreatment with bromoenol lactone to inhibit iPLA2, blocked membrane phospholipid-derived metabolite production, increased cell surface P-selectin expression and neutrophil adherence. CONCLUSIONS The similar biochemical and cellular responses in HCAEC exposed to thrombin or tryptase stimulation suggest that the cleavage of two separate PAR serve to extend the range of proteases to which the cells respond rather than resulting in separate intracellular events. This suggests that in conditions such as thrombosis and atherosclerosis that multiple mechanisms can activate the inflammatory response.
