“…Consequently, when apo A1 concentration in plasma is decreased, this may potentially result in an impaired hemostatic balance and, thereby an increased tendency for thrombosis. Previous studies have shown that defects in the protein C pathway may, indeed, result in BCS, both in an experimental animal model [30] and in humans [5]. Another potential mode of action, recently published by Dahlbäck and colleagues, is that anionic phospholipids lose their procoagulant properties when incorporated into HDL [31].…”
