Expiratory flow limitation in compressed air divers and oxygen divers.
Divers are exposed to dense gases under hyperbaric and hyperoxic conditions and, therefore, may be at risk of developing respiratory disease. Long-term effects on respiratory function have been found in commercial divers who perform deep dives. This study was conducted to detect possible lung function changes in scuba divers who dive in shallow water using compressed air or oxygen as a breathin...
متن کاملFactor XII Deficiency
Factor XII ia a single-chain beta-globulin serine protease with a molecular weight of 80,000 84,000 daltons and a plasma concentration of approximately 30 pg/mL. Proteolytic cleavage of factor XII is mediated by charged surfaces (glass, kaolin, cellite, dextran sulfate, endotoxin, urates, crude collagen, sulfatides), autoactivation, and kallikrein. Prekallikrein, factor XI, factor VII, plasmino...
متن کاملActivation of factor XII by dextran sulfate: the basis for an assay of factor XII.
A system was developed for studying the activation of factor XII (Hageman factor) in the presence of dextran sulfate (DS). Salient features of the system included low ionic strength (0.08), low concentration of factor XII (approximately 1/10,000 that in normal plasma), and an excess of exogenous prekallikrein (PK). In this system, factor XII was rapidly converted to the 80,000 molecular weight ...
متن کاملCharacterization of factor XII Tenri, a rare CRM-negative factor XII deficiency.
Factor XII Tenri (Y34C), a rare cross-reacting material (CRM)-negative factor XII deficiency, was identified in a 71-yr-old Japanese woman with angina pectoris. In the patient's plasma, factor XII activity and antigen levels were only 1.6% and 5.0%, respectively, of those seen in a normal subject. Immunoblot analysis showed that the secreted factor XII Tenri existed not only as a monomer (76 kD...
متن کاملA novel missense mutation in the factor XII gene in a litter of cats with factor XII deficiency
The feline F12 gene was examined to identify a mutation associated with coagulation factor XII (FXII) deficiency in a litter of 6 cats, including 2 cats with severely reduced FXII activity (7.1 and 9.3%, respectively) and 4 cats with moderately reduced FXII activity (range 36.0 to 46.3%). Cats with severely reduced FXII activity were homozygous for a G to C missense mutation in exon 13 of the F...
