Relationship of contact activation cofactor (CAC) procoagulant activity to kininogen.
Contact activation cofactor (CAC) facilitates the interaction of factors XI and XII. Patients lacking CAC have a coagulation defect and are deficient in high molecular weight kininogen. The coincidence of these two defects suggests that a single protein may be responsible for both physiologic functions. Immunologic and activity studies have been made on isolated CAC to clarify the relationship ...
متن کاملRelationship between Cellular Procoagulant Activity and Metastatic
The metastatic process is a complex sequence of steps that may involve coagulation and the presence of fibrin. F1 (low incidence of lung colonization) and F10 (high incidence of lung colonization) variants of the B16 mouse melanoma were used to examine the relationship between the level of cellular procoagulant activity and their metastatic potential. Cell suspensions were prepared from culture...
متن کاملBehçet’s disease: new insight into the relationship between procoagulant state, endothelial activation/damage and disease activity
BACKGROUND Behçet disease (BD) is associated with a prothrombotic state of unknown origin that may lead to life-threatening events. Calibrated Automated Thrombogram (CAT) and Rotational Thromboelastometry (ROTEM) are two global haemostasis assays that may reveal new insights into the physiopathological mechanisms of the disease and its procoagulant condition. METHODS 23 BD patients who had no...
متن کاملCleavage of human high-molecular weight kininogen by purified kallikreins and upon contact activation of plasma.
To study the digestion pattern of human high-molecular weight (mol wt) kininogen (HMWK) in plasma during contact activation we have prepared monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) to the light-chain (LC) and the heavy-chain moiety of HMWK. One MoAb from each set was purified, and neither MoAb inhibited the clotting activity of HMWK. In enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoblotting experiments nei...
متن کاملCharacterization of human high molecular weight kininogen. Procoagulant activity associated with the light chain of kinin-free high molecular weight kininogen
Human high molecular weight (HMW) kininogen has been isolated and was found to be a single chain protein of approximately equal to 120,000 daltons. Upon digestion with plasma kallikrein bradykinin is generated, and SDS gel electrophoresis of the kinin-free protein reveals an apparent loss in size of 15,000 daltons. The kinin-free kininogen retains full activity as a coagulation factor and consi...
