Activated clotting factors in factor IX concentrates.
The precise quantitation of activated factors in human factor IX concentrates has been accomplished with the use of recently developed, specific assays for factors IXa, Xa, and thrombin. The assay for factor IXa, which measures the initial rate of 3H-factor-X activation, was shown to be specific for factor IXa in the concentrates. Activated factor IX concentrates contained 1.0-2.3 microgram/ml ...
متن کاملExpression of active human blood clotting factor IX in transgenic mice: use of a cDNA with complete mRNA sequence.
Haemophilia B is a bleeding disorder caused by a functional deficiency of the clotting factor IX. A full length human factor IX complementary DNA clone containing all the natural mRNA sequences plus some flanking intron sequences was constructed with a metallothionein promoter and introduced into transgenic mice by microinjection into the pronuclei of fertilised eggs. The transgenic mice expres...
متن کاملBlood Clotting Factor VIII: From Evolution to Therapy
Recombinant blood clotting factor VIII is one of the most complex proteins for industrial manufacturing due to the low efficiency of its gene transcription, massive intracellular loss of its proprotein during post-translational processing, and the instability of the secreted protein. Improvement in hemophilia A therapy requires a steady increase in the production of factor VIII drugs despite ti...
متن کاملImportance of factor-IX-dependent prothrombinase formation--the Josso pathway--in clotting plasma.
We report a study on the importance of factor IX activation in thromboplastin-dependent coagulation in plasma. Diluted, CaCl2-containing thromboplastin solutions at constant phospholipid concentration were used to trigger the coagulation in plasma from patients with congenital factor IX and factor VIII deficiency in the presence and absence of added factors IX and VIII, and the generation of th...
متن کاملAge-specific regulation of clotting factor IX gene expression in normal and transgenic mice.
Factor IX (FIX), a circulating serine protease that serves as an essential component of the blood coagulation pathway, has been shown to increase with age in humans. We show here that murine FIX mRNA and activity levels also increase with age. Furthermore, one form of hemophilia B, hemophilia B Leyden, which is caused by mutations within the promoter region of the FIX gene, has a distinct age-d...
