Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present invention relate to methods for detecting kidney disease, in particular early stage kidney disease.

Abstract: The invention provides vitamin K-dependent polypeptides with enhanced membrane binding affinity. These polypeptides can be used to modulate clot formation in mammals. Methods of modulating clot formation in mammals are also described.

Abstract: The invention provides vitamin K-dependent polypeptides with enhanced membrane binding affinity. These polypeptides can be used to modulate clot formation in mammals. Methods of modulating clot formation in mammals are also described.

Abstract: Modifications of vitamin K-dependent polypeptides that lead to enhanced protein function on a weight or molar basis and/or increase of protein lifetime in the circulation are described. Both objectives are important for using vitamin K-dependent polypeptides for pro- and anti-coagulation therapies, as well as for other uses in the circulation.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a variant blood coagulation component, which is substantially homologous in amino acid sequences to a wild-type blood coagulation component capable of exhibiting anticoagulant activity in the protein C-anticoagulant system of blood and selected from protein C (PC) and activated protein C (APC), said variant component being capable of exhibiting an anticoagulant activity, that is enhanced in comparison with anticoagulant activity expressed by the corresponding wild-type blood coagulation component, said variant component differing from the respective wild-type component, in that it contains in comparison with said wild-type component at least one amino acid residue modification in it N-terminal amino acid residue sequence that constitutes the Gla-domain of protein C.
