Booth, B. Bennett, Department of Medicine, ,Aberdeen University, Aberdeen, Scotland. Detailed information is available on the molecular characteristics of plasminogen and plasmin. In contrast, few data have been obtained on the number and nature of agents which activate plasminogen in the body. We describe the purification and characteristics of (1) a plasminogen activator present in venous Dlood after venous occlusion - "circul­ ating activator", (2) a plasminogen activator generated from plasma by contact with kao­ lin - "Hageman factor dependent activator", (3) a plasminogen activator precipitated from plasma by dextran sulphate - "dextran sulphate dependent activator", (4) a plasmin­ ogen activator obtained from cadaveric vascular endothelium - "cadaveric endothelial act­ ivator and (5) a plasminogen activator extracted from human heart tissue - "tissue activ­ ator". The properties of these activators are compared with one another and with urokin­ ase obtained commercially. The physical properties of activators 1-5 appeared similar though on Sephadex G200 the dextran sulphate dependent activator eluted at a position suggesting a larger molecular size than the other activators. The susceptibility of these activators to enzyme inhibitors were identical but differed from that of urokinase. Anti­ sera to urokinase did not inhibit the activity of these activators. Antisera to the cad­ averic endothelial activator did not inhibit urokinase or the Hageman factor dependent activator but did inhibit the activity of activators 1,3,4 and 5.

This method has now been extended to allow for the measurementlOf-r.I--X-­ antigen by inhibition of the binding of 125I_F.IX to alloantibodies. Purified F.IX as well as F.IX in plasma can be measured with high sensitivity (plasma dilutions to 1:2560). This assay was used to characterize hemophilia B plasmas as CR~, containing normal levels of F.IX antigen, or CRM-, containing severely reduced levels of F.IX an­ tigen. Classification was in agreement with results obtained by inhibitor neutraliza­ tion using a different alloantiserum. No detectable antigenic differences were observed between normal F.IX, activated normal F.. IX (F.IXa) and two abnormal, highly purified F.IX proteins in this assay. These data indicate the usefulness of the assay for the determination of the antigenic specificity of alloantibodies. .

  • Urokinase, a Promising Candidate for Fibrinolytic Therapy for Intracerebral Hemorrhage
    LABORATORY INVESTIGATION J Neurosurg 126:548–557, 2017 Urokinase, a promising candidate for fibrinolytic therapy for intracerebral hemorrhage *Qiang Tan, MD,1 Qianwei Chen, MD1 Yin Niu, MD,1 Zhou Feng, MD,1 Lin Li, MD,1 Yihao Tao, MD,1 Jun Tang, MD,1 Liming Yang, MD,1 Jing Guo, MD,2 Hua Feng, MD, PhD,1 Gang Zhu, MD, PhD,1 and Zhi Chen, MD, PhD1 1Department of Neurosurgery, Southwest Hospital, Third Military Medical University, Chongqing; and 2Department of Neurosurgery, 211st Hospital of PLA, Harbin, People’s Republic of China OBJECTIVE Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with a high rate of mortality and severe disability, while fi- brinolysis for ICH evacuation is a possible treatment. However, reported adverse effects can counteract the benefits of fibrinolysis and limit the use of tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA). Identifying appropriate fibrinolytics is still needed. Therefore, the authors here compared the use of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), an alternate thrombolytic, with that of tPA in a preclinical study. METHODS Intracerebral hemorrhage was induced in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats by injecting autologous blood into the caudate, followed by intraclot fibrinolysis without drainage. Rats were randomized to receive uPA, tPA, or saline within the clot. Hematoma and perihematomal edema, brain water content, Evans blue fluorescence and neurological scores, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), MMP mRNA, blood-brain barrier (BBB) tight junction proteins, and nuclear factor–κB (NF-κB) activation were measured to evaluate the effects of these 2 drugs in ICH. RESULTS In comparison with tPA, uPA better ameliorated brain edema and promoted an improved outcome after ICH.

Hemophilia B, or Christmas disease, is an X-linked recessively inherited disorder of blood coagulation characterized by insufficient or abnormal synthesis of the clotting protein factor IX. Factor IX is a vitamin K-dependent coagulation factor which is synthesized in the liver. Factor IX is activated by factor XIa in the intrinsic coagulation pathway. Activated factor IX (IXa), in combination with factor VII: C, activates factor X to Xa, resulting ultimately in the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin and the formation of a fibrin clot.

  • General Considerations of Coagulation Proteins
    ANNALS OF CLINICAL AND LABORATORY SCIENCE, Vol. 8, No. 2 Copyright © 1978, Institute for Clinical Science General Considerations of Coagulation Proteins DAVID GREEN, M.D., Ph.D.* Atherosclerosis Program, Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, Section of Hematology, Department of Medicine, and Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, IL 60611. ABSTRACT The coagulation system is part of the continuum of host response to injury and is thus intimately involved with the kinin, complement and fibrinolytic systems. In fact, as these multiple interrelationships have un­ folded, it has become difficult to define components as belonging to just one system. With this limitation in mind, an attempt has been made to present the biochemistry and physiology of those factors which appear to have a dominant role in the coagulation system. Coagulation proteins in general are single chain glycoprotein molecules. The reactions which lead to their activation are usually dependent on the presence of an appropriate surface, which often is a phospholipid micelle. Large molecular weight cofactors are bound to the surface, frequently by calcium, and act to induce a favorable conformational change in the reacting molecules. These mole­ cules are typically serine proteases which remove small peptides from the clotting factors, converting the single chain species to two chain molecules with active site exposed. The sequence of activation is defined by the enzymes and substrates involved and eventuates in fibrin formation. Mul­ tiple alternative pathways and control mechanisms exist throughout the normal sequence to limit coagulation to the area of injury and to prevent interference with the systemic circulation.

  • Replacing the First Epidermal Growth Factor-Like Domain of Factor IX with That of Factor VII Enhances Activity in Vitro and in Canine Hemophilia B
    Replacing the first epidermal growth factor-like domain of factor IX with that of factor VII enhances activity in vitro and in canine hemophilia B. J Y Chang, … , K M Brinkhous, H R Roberts J Clin Invest. 1997;100(4):886-892. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI119604. Research Article Using the techniques of molecular biology, we made a chimeric Factor IX by replacing the first epidermal growth factor- like domain with that of Factor VII. The resulting recombinant chimeric molecule, Factor IXVIIEGF1, had at least a twofold increase in functional activity in the one-stage clotting assay when compared to recombinant wild-type Factor IX. The increased activity was not due to contamination with activated Factor IX, nor was it due to an increased rate of activation by Factor VIIa-tissue factor or by Factor XIa. Rather, the increased activity was due to a higher affinity of Factor IXVIIEGF1 for Factor VIIIa with a Kd for Factor VIIIa about one order of magnitude lower than that of recombinant wild- type Factor IXa. In addition, results from animal studies show that this chimeric Factor IX, when infused into a dog with hemophilia B, exhibits a greater than threefold increase in clotting activity, and has a biological half-life equivalent to recombinant wild-type Factor IX.

In contrast, endogenous fibrinolysis, using one-thousandth of the t-PA concentration, is regularly lysing fibrin and induced Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction flow grade 3 patency in 15% of patients with acute myocardial infarction. This efficacy is due to the effects of t-PA and urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA). They are complementary in fibrinolysis so that in combination, their effect is synergistic. Lysis of intact fibrin is initiated by t-PA, and uPA activates the remaining plasminogens. Knockout of the uPA gene, but not the t-PA gene, inhibited fibrinolysis. In the clinic, a minibolus of t-PA followed by an infusion of uPA was administered to 101 patients with acute myocardial infarction; superior infarct artery patency, no reocclusions, and 1% mortality resulted. Endogenous fibrinolysis may provide a paradigm that is relevant for therapeutic fibrinolysis.
