Biological Activity: Bovine Factor Xa is a serine protease that plays a central role in blood coagulation, with prothrombin as its physiological substrate. Bovine Factor Xa catalyzes the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin, activates factor VIII, and hydrolyzes peptide, thioester, and amide substrates. Bovine Factor Xa cleaves protease-activated receptors 1 and 2 to activate intracellular signal transduction. Bovine Factor Xa regulates multiple cellular pathways, mediates various cellular activities, tissue remodeling and cancer cell migration, and inhibits apoptosis in some cancer cells. Bovine Factor Xa protects hippocampal neurons against glutamate-induced damage. Bovine Factor Xa participates in embryonic vascular development and regulates immune hematopoiesis; its activity is inhibited by soybean trypsin inhibitor, and cannot be enhanced by phospholipids. Bovine Factor Xa regulates immune responses and macrophage polarization, and participates in fibrosis, vascular remodeling and tumor progression through non-coagulant effects. Bovine Factor Xa can be used in research related to atherosclerosis, fibrosis, asthma, cancer, thromboinflammation, sepsis, etc^{[1][2][3][4][5]}.
