چکیده

Fibrinolytic activity and serum antifibrinolysin were estimated in normal pregnant women, during and after labour. The decreased fibrinolytic activity found during labour returned to non-pregnant levels within 24 hours of delivery. During the same period, the serum antifibrinolysin was rapidly diminished. It is suggested that the post-partum increase in fibrinolytic activity to non-pregnant levels is due to alterations in the fibrinolytic system itself, as well as to changes in circulating antifibrinolysin.

Antifibrinolytic activity in normal pregnancy.

It is found that serum antifibrinolytic activity is inhibitory both to the spontaneous fibrinolytic activity and to the activity of streptokinase-activated plasminogen. The titres of serum antiplasmin activity during gestation, labour, and the puerperium are all of the same order and do not differ from those in non-pregnant women. The marked decrease in the spontaneous fibrinolytic activity in ...

The relationship to age and cerebral vascular accidents of fibrin and fibrinolytic activity.

Three ;normal' groups of people-young, middle-aged, and old-have been investigated with regard to the fibrin content and fibrinolytic activity of the blood. The fourth group consisted of middle-aged people who had previously sustained a cerebral vascular accident matched statistically for age with the middle-aged normals. It was concluded that fibrin increases with age but there is an interacti...

Basis of antifibrinolytic therapy.

The coagulation and fibrinolytic enzyme systems oppose each other in the haemostatic process. Coagulation occurs, of necessity, rapidly and explosively so that a site of vessel damage causing blood loss can be rapidly sealed. The fibrinolytic process, on the other hand, serves as a repair system to remove fibrin deposits which might otherwise cause permanent vascular occlusion. This must occur ...

Identification of Fibrinolytic Activity in Iranian Vipera Lebetina Venom

Background and purpose: Vipera lebetina lives in different areas in Iran, and its venom contains a variety of proteins with coagulant and anticoagulant activities. Fibrinolytic enzymes could have a therapeutic role in dissolution of blood clots, so, this study aimed at separating the venom components of Iranian V. lebetina and detecting its anticoagulant activity. Materials and methods: In thi...

Synthesis and biological activity of dipeptides containing S-hexylcysteine.

Pathological clot formation is the major cause of many serious diseases. A crucial step at the end of the coagulation cascade is the cleavage of soluble fibrinogen to fibrin clot by thrombin. A number of anticoagulants have been assessed clinically. Side effects such as excessive bleeding and difficulties of drug monitoring have led to considerable activity in the search of novel compounds with...
