Fibrinopeptide A and the Phosphate Content of Fibrinogen in Venous Thromboembolism and Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation
نویسنده
چکیده
Concentrations of plasma fibrinopeptide A (FPA) were measured by radioimmunoassay in 50 patients with venous thromboembolism or disseminated intravascular coagulation or both. A consistent discrepancy was observed in values obtained with two anti-FPA antisera. Analysis of extracts from plasma of these patients by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) revealed the presence of a phosphorylated and an unphosphorylated form of the A peptide. Differences in concentrations of FPA measured with the two antisera could be accounted for by their different reactivity with phosphorylated FPA (FPA-P). The differences were abolished by treatment with alkaline phosphatase. A good correlation was observed between

To provide more information on the pathways of fibrinogen catabolism in generalized cancer. the effect of heparin on fibrinopeptide A (fpA) and on 1251-fibrinogen kinetics was studied in 1 5 patients with disseminated neoplasia. Three patients had evidence of venous thrombosis and in 2 additional patients a low fibrinogen level together with increased amounts of FDP/fdp and a positive ethanol t...

Background & Objectives: In sepsis, enhanced fibrin formation, impaired fibrin degradation, and intravascular fibrin deposition lead to a prothrombotic state. The current study aimed at measuring various coagulation parameters to predict an early marker for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Methods: The current prospective s...
