Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) is an anticoagulant protein required for murine embryonic development. Intrauterine lethality of Tfpi−/− mice occurs at mid‐ and late gestation, the latter of which is associated with severe cerebrovascular defects. Megakaryocytes produce only the TFPIα isoform, which is stored within platelets and released upon activation.
