Topic: Factor XII



  
 [No title]
Quantitatively it is the most important of the two pathways, but is slower to cleave fibrin than the extrinsic pathway.
The intrinsic pathway ultimately activates factor X, a process which can also be brought about by the extrinsic pathway.
There is evidence that the Hageman factor can autoactivate, thus the pathway is self-amplifying.

 Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time
Factor deficiencies that prolong PTT: The PTT is more sensitive to deficiencies of the intrinsic pathway (factors VIII, IX, XI, XII, prekallikrein, HMWK) than it is to deficiencies of the common pathway (fibrinogen, and factors II, V, and X).
The PTT is more sensitive to intrinsic pathway factor deficiencies than to common pathway factor deficiencies.
Therefore, in these situations, an alternative assay, such as the Heparin Antifactor Xa Assay, should be used rather than the PTT to monitor heparin.

Both the contact phase and the common pathway were subjected to a detailed theoretical analysis to establish the effect of mass transport and flow, surface reactivity, feedback loops and other parameters of interest in the cascades.
The common pathway is so effective at producing thrombin that it does not take much to set it off.
It is only under these flow conditions that we can argue that activated clotting factors are washed downstream or diluted by the rapidly flowing blood before they can build up to significant concentration - the conventional explanation for distinguishing high flow, white thrombus formation from low flow, red thrombus formation.

Activation of FXII occurs following administration of clot-busting drugs like tPA, which is also likely to contribute to the activation of the complement and kinin systems that has been demonstrated following thrombolytic therapy.
Increased thrombin generation in patients given thrombolytic therapy is partially mediated through an increased activation of factor XII to AFT.
This is partly due to factor XII deficiency not being associated with any overt clinical symptoms.

 Factor XII - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It may increase the risk of thrombosis, due to inadequate activation of the fibrinolytic pathway.
Deficiency does not cause excessive haemorrhage as the other coagulation factors make up for the it.
Hageman factor was first discovered in 1955 when a routine preoperative blood sample of the 37-year-old railroad brakeman John Hageman was found to have prolonged clotting time in test tubes, even though he had no haemorrhagic symptoms.

 Factor XII Activity
A number of investigators have reported that congenital factor XII deficiency may be associated with an increased incidence of venous thrombosis.
In fact, mild factor XII deficiency is the most common cause of extended aPTT in the non-bleeding patient in the absence of lupus anticoagulant.
Decreased factor XII levels can be seen in liver disease and renal disease.

 Haematologic Technologies - Factor XII
Reciprical activation of XII to the active serine protease factor XIIa (XIIa) by kallikrein is central to initiation of the intrinsic coagulation pathway.
The ability of a variety of negatively charged substances, both physiological and nonphysiological to promote XII activation and, thus, initiation of the intrinsic pathway has led to the psuedonym "contact activation".

This disorder is thought to be benign and usually presents no symptoms (asymptomatic); it is usually only accidentally discovered through pre-operative blood tests that are required by hospitals.
Although it is thought that Factor XII is needed for blood clotting, when it is deficient, other blood clotting factors tend to compensate for its absence.

 Abstract number: OC2400
Increasing knowledge of the interaction between the contact activation system and the endothelial cells has suggested that the vascular wall is the physiological site of activation of this system as well as the reactions derived from this.
I factor XII exhibited the same Zn optimum (15 µM) as the binding of purified factor XII/factor XIIa suggesting that a local increase of Zn is the triggering factor for the binding and the reactions followed as a consequence of this binding to endothelial cells in the vascular wall.
In this context the binding and activation of HK with kallikrein has been thoroughly investigated while binding of factor XII to endothelial cells has been analysed only superficially.
