Description
Released during platelet aggregation. Neutralizes the anticoagulant effect of heparin because it binds more strongly to heparin than to the chondroitin-4-sulfate chains of the carrier molecule. Chemotactic for neutrophils and monocytes. Inhibits endothelial cell proliferation, the short form is a more potent inhibitor than the longer form.

Activity
1. Measured by its ability to inhibit human bFGF / FGF2 dependent proliferation of Balb/c3T3 mouse fibroblasts. The ED50 for this effect is typically 5-40 μg/ml.
2. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human CXCL4 at 20 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human VEGF165. The EC50 of biotinylated human VEGF165 is 9.97 μg/ml. -
