Chain Variant

SummaryCongenitally abnormal fibrinogen Osaka III with the replacement of γ Arg-275 by His was found in a 38-year-old female with no bleeding or thrombotic tendency. Release of fibrinopeptide(s) by thrombin or reptilase was normal, but her thrombin or reptilase time in the absence of calcium was markedly prolonged and the polymerization of preformed fibrin monomer which was prepared by the treatment of fibrinogen with thrombin or reptilase was also markedly defective. Propositus' fibrinogen had normal crosslinking abilities of α- and γ-chains. Analysis of fibrinogen chains on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) in the system of Laemmli only revealed the presence of abnormal γ-chain with an apparently higher molecular weight, the presence of which was more clearly detected with SDS-PAGE of fibrin monomer obtained by thrombin treatment. Purified fragment D1 of fibrinogen Osaka III also seemed to contain an apparently higher molecular weight fragment D1 γ remnant on Laemmli gels, which was digested faster than the normal control by plasmin in the presence of [ethy-lenebis(oxyethylenenitrilo)]tetraacetic acid (EGTA).

Thrombotic Tendency

SummaryWe have investigated the relevance of some laboratory tests of platelet function in predicting conditions of thrombotic tendency. For this purpose, we studied platelet survival, platelet aggregation in response to different stimuli, TxB2 and 6-keto-PGFlα production in serum of rats bearing a nephrotic syndrome induced by adriamycin. These animals show a heavy predisposition to the development of both arterial and venous thrombosis. The mean survival time was normal in nephrotic rats in comparison to controls. As to aggregation tests, a lower aggregating response was found in ADR-treated rats using ADP or collagen as stimulating agents. With arachidonic acid (AA) we observed similar aggregating responses at lower A A concentrations, whereas at higher AA concentrations a significantly lower response was found in nephrotic rats, despite their higher TxB2 production. Also TxB2 and 6-keto-PGFlα levels in serum of nephrotic rats were significantly higher than in controls. No consistent differences were found in PGI2-activity generated by vessels of control or nephrotic rats.These data show that platelet function may appear normal or even impaired in rats with a markedly increased thrombotic tendency. On the other hand, the significance of high TxB2 levels in connection with mechanisms leading to thrombus formation remains a controversial issue.

Protein C Activity

SummaryIn patients with severe nephrotic syndrome determinations of plasma protein C : Ag levels (8 patients: 5 adults, 3 children) and protein C activity (3 out of 8 patients) revealed significantly elevated plasma protein C concentrations. Furthermore we observed a significant inverse correlation of protein C : Ag to AT III : Ag levels. No protein C : Ag could be detected in the urine of two patients studied. We conclude from our data, that changes of plasma protein C do not contribute to the high thrombotic tendency in nephrotic syndrome.

Reduced Renal Function

In a variety of renal disorders, including SLE and transplantation, in vivo platelet activation is present. This is in part a result of the nephrotic syndrome, but is also observed in patients with g.n. who are not nephrotic. As a result, intraplatelet concentrations of serotonin and other amines are depleted in patients with active nephritis. The functional capacity of such amine-depleted platelets has been little studied; Pareti et al (1980) reported defective aggregation to ADP, adrenaline and collagen in such “acquired storage pool deficiencies”. We studied aggregation thresholds to ADP, collagen and AA in 25 patients with SLE nephritis, none of whom had a nephrotic syndrome or reduced renal function. In these patients platelet activation is due principally to circulating factors. Sixteen transplant recipients were also studied. In them, activation is principally within the renal microvasculature of the allograft. We also measured intraplatelet serotonin concentrations, which were low or zero in the great majority of patients in both groups. Bleeding times were normal in all, as were platelet aggregation thresholds to ADP and collagen. AA thresholds, however, were markedly depressed (<0.32 mmol) in all transplant recipients and most patients with SLE. This specific hyperaggregability may be responsible for both persistence of disease and the thrombotic tendency observed in some patients, including those with circulating anticoagulant.
