Hageman factor substrates. Human plasma prekallikrein: mechanism of activation by Hageman factor and participation in hageman factor-dependent fibrinolysis.
Two molecular forms of prekallikrein can be isolated from pooled normal human plasma. Their approximate molecular weights by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis are 88,000 and 85,000. The two bands observed are shown to represent prekallikrein by functional, immunochemical, and structural criteria. Both forms are cleaved by activated Hageman factor, they appear to share antigenic determi...
متن کاملStudies on the inhibition of ellagic acid-activated Hageman factor (factor XII) and Hageman factor fragments.
Hageman factor (HF, factor XII) that has been exposed to Sephadex-ellagic acid gels is a single-chain species (HFea) with amidolytic properties for the synthetic substrate H-D-phenylalanyl-L-pipecolyl-L-arginine p-nitroanilide. Earlier we reported that amidolysis was suppressed by incubation of HFea with specific antiserum. The present study provides additional evidence that the amidolytic prop...
متن کامل798 Hageman Factor Activation
Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) I or endotoxins elicit a variety of host responses, the combination of which result in the deposition of fibrin in capillaries and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). These various host responses to endotoxins have recently been summarized (1) and include: (a) aggregation of platelets and release of platelet factor 3; (b) activation of Hageman facto...
متن کاملThe activation of plasminogen by Hageman factor (Factor XII) and Hageman factor fragments.
Activation of plasminogen through surface-mediated reactions is well recognized. In the presence of kaolin, purified Hageman factor (Factor XII) changed plasminogen to plasmin, as assayed upon a synthetic amide substrate and by fibrinolysis. Kinetic studies suggested an enzymatic action of Hageman factor upon its substrate, plasminogen. Hageman factor fragments, at a protein concentration equiv...
متن کاملBoson Stars: Early History and Recent Prospects
Boson stars are descendants of the so–called geons of Wheeler, except that they are built from scalar particles instead of electromagnetic fields. If scalar fields exist in nature, such localized configurations kept together by their self-generated gravitational field can form within Einstein’s general relativity. In the case of complex scalar fields, an absolutely stable branch of such non-top...
