Coagulation factor V (FV) circulates in the bloodstream in an inactive form (procofactor) and is activated to factor Va (FVa) by thrombin. Thrombin cleaves away the large inhibitory B-domain of FV which resolves the molecule into a heterodimer that is stabilized through non-covalent interactions between heavy (A1-A2) and light (A3-C1-C2) chains. A recombinantly expressed truncated B-domain variant of factor V (FV-DT) exhibits constitutive FVa-like activity even in the absence of proteolysis. FV maintains

Novo Nordisk helps some patients through haemostasis management. Haemostasis is the human body’s physical response to bleeding and hemorrhage (rupture of a blood vessel). It stops bleeding by blocking the vascular breach. Haemostasis has 3 steps: primary haemostasis‚ secondary haemostasis‚ and fibrinolysis. Primary haemostasis consists of vasoconstriction (constriction of blood vessels) and the formation of a platelet plug‚ made by platelets and fibrinogen‚ that blocks the breach. Secondary haemostasis
