It has been reported that serum levels of thrombomodulin (TM) reflect endothelial damages in various diseases. We measured serum TM levels between day-10 and day 100 in 6 patients receiving allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Serum TM levels were increased when patients had transplant related complications including graft versus host disease, hemorrhagic cystitis and interstitial pneumonitis. In patient without complications, serum TM levels were within normal limits. These results suggest that the serum TM level serves as a useful marker of treatment related toxicity and a predictor of complications after BMT.

D008297	Male		Males
D011956	Receptors, Cell Surface	Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D018179	Receptors, Thrombin	A family of proteinase-activated receptors that are specific for THROMBIN. They are found primarily on PLATELETS and on ENDOTHELIAL CELLS. Activation of thrombin receptors occurs through the proteolytic action of THROMBIN, which cleaves the N-terminal peptide from the receptor to reveal a new N-terminal peptide that is a cryptic ligand for the receptor. The receptors signal through HETEROTRIMERIC GTP-BINDING PROTEINS. Small synthetic peptides that contain the unmasked N-terminal peptide sequence can also activate the receptor in the absence of proteolytic activity.
