PMID: 27094832
21. Protein C and TAFI are concurrently activated in a thrombomoulin-dependent manner and do not compete for the thrombin-TM complex, raising the possibility that they interact with distinct activation complexes. PMID: 26663133

23. Arg12-Glu28 and Cys383-Val401 in TAFI are involved in thrombomodulin-mediated TAFI activation. Gly205-Asp232 is involved in binding to thrombin. PMID: 26341360
24. CPB2 polymorphisms (reference sequences: rs1926447 and rs3742264) were related to systemic complications in bacterial meningitis. TAFI levels correlated positively with CSF complement. rs1926447 (TT) was associated with higher levels of TAFI in CSF. PMID: 26340319
25. Pro-inflammatory cytokines or lipopolysaccharide decreased TAFI protein levels via binding of tristetraprolin to the CPB2 3'-UTR, which mediates CPB2 mRNA destabilisation. HuR can bind the CBP2 3'UTR. This is reduced by pro-inflammatory mediators. PMID: 26062599
