چکیده

The interaction between antithrombin III (ATIII) and albumin-heparin conjugates covalently coupled onto carboxylated polystyrene beads either in buffer containing albumin or in plasma was studied using 14C-labeled ATIII. Binding isotherms of ATIII were modeled using a summation of two Langmuir equations. These equations describe the binding of ATIII to two different sets of binding sites, one with a high, the other with a low affinity of ATIII to these sites are 9 x 10(6) L/mol and 0.3 x 10(6) L/mol, respectively. The binding of ATIII to surface binding sites with a high affinity for ATIII was correlated with the presence of specific ATIII binding sites in the immobilized heparin. Binding of ATIII from albumin solutions to binding sites with a low affinity for ATIII was dominated by nonspecific binding of ATIII to the immobilized heparin. A third small fraction of the surface bound. ATIII is probably adsorbed to sites on the surface not covered with heparin. In the case of the binding of ATIII to the heparinized surface from plasma solutions, a fraction of initially adsorbed ATIII was desorbed by other plasma proteins. This desorption in combination with direct competition between ATIII and other plasma proteins resulted in lower ATIII surface concentrations using plasma as compared to the ATIII surface concentrations obtained using albumin solutions. The binding of ATIII to nonspecific binding sites was almost completely inhibited in the presence of plasma proteins. The amount of ATIII bound to immobilized heparin via specific ATIII binding sites was 30% lower in plasma solutions as compared to the specific binding of ATIII using albumin solutions. It is concluded that the accessibility of immobilized heparin for ATIII in plasma decreases by binding of heparin-binding proteins onto the immobilized heparin and/or adsorption of other plasma proteins on the heparinized surface.

Covalently bound conjugates of albumin and heparin: synthesis, fractionation and characterization.

Covalently bound conjugates of human serum albumin and heparin were prepared as compounds which could improve the blood-compatibility of polymer surfaces either by preadsorption or by covalent coupling of the conjugates onto blood contacting surfaces. The conjugates (10-16 weight % of heparin) were obtained by a condensation reaction between albumin and heparin using 1-ethyl-3-(dimethylaminopro...

Interaction of antithrombin III with preadsorbed albumin-heparin conjugates.

The adsorption of antithrombin III (AT III) onto polystyrene surfaces preadsorbed with albumin or albumin-heparin conjugates was studied using a two step enzyme immuno assay. When AT III-buffer solutions were used, the highest adsorption values were measured on high affinity albumin-heparin conjugate pretreated surfaces. Less AT III adsorption was found on nonfractionated albumin-heparin conjug...

Effect of fibronectin on the binding of antithrombin III to immobilized heparin.

An objective of this research is to verify the mechanism of anticoagulant activity of surface-immobilized heparin in the presence of plasma proteins. The competition and binding interaction between immobilized heparin and antithrombin III (ATIII)/thrombin have been described in vitro. However, the strong ionic character of heparin leads to its specific and nonspecific binding with many other pl...
