Abstract
We have compared the anticoagulant and the antithrombotic effects of unfractionated heparin (Calciparine) and low molecular weight heparin (Fraxiparine) in an experimental human venous thrombosis model. One single subcutaneous injection of Calciparine or Fraxiparine was administered to healthy male volunteers at one month interval in a randomised and cross-over design. Ten subjects received doses used in man for preventing venous thrombosis (5,000 IU and 3,075 IU, respectively), and seven other subjects received curative doses (12,500 IU and 6,150 IU, respectively). Thrombus formation was measured 3 h and 8 h after drug administration. Non-anticoagulated human blood was drawn for 5 min directly from an antecubital vein over confluent cultured endothelial cells positioned in a parallel-plate perfusion chamber. The cells were previously stimulated for 4 h with lipopolysaccharides (10 micrograms/ml) and interleukin 1 beta (50 U/ml), resulting in optimal expression of biological active tissue factor. The wall shear rate at the cell surface was 50 s-1 and mimicked venous blood flow conditions. Immunologically quantified fibrin deposition on the stimulated cells was reduced only by curative doses of Calciparine and Fraxiparine at 3 h (3.4 +/- 0.8 versus 1.0 +/- 0.2 micrograms/cm/ and 2.6 +/- 0.8 versus 1.0 +/- 0.1 micrograms/cm2, respectively, p < or = 0.05). The influence of Calciparine and Fraxiparine on the formation of thrombin and fibrin was determined by measuring the plasma levels of thrombin-antithrombin III complexes and fibrinopeptide A (FPA) in blood samples collected distally to the perfusion chamber. The generation of these markers was significantly inhibited (50-83%) by both prophylactic and curative doses of Calciparine and Fraxiparine (p < or = 0.05). However, Fraxiparine still significantly inhibited the thrombin and fibrin generation at 8 h (p < or = 0.05), whereas Calciparine did not. The antithrombotic effects of both heparins were correlated with their plasma activities as measured by the antifactor Xa or the antithrombin assays. Thus, it appears in this model that Calciparine and Fraxiparine produce comparable antithrombotic effects at clinically comparable doses. However Fraxiparine has a longer-lasting anticoagulant activity than Calciparine. These results are in good agreement with clinical observations in man, and thus in favour of our model of human venous thrombogenesis for further studies of antithrombotic molecules.

Abstract
We have evaluated the relationship between the level of tissue factor (TF) expression by stimulated endothelial cells and thrombus formation under blood flow conditions. Cultures of human umbilical venous endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated in order to express different levels of TF activity. They were stimulated for 4 h with either I) lipopolysaccharides (LPS, 10 micrograms/ml), II) recombinant interleukin 1 beta (IL1 beta, 50 UI/ml) or III) simultaneously with LPS and IL1 beta (LPS+IL1 beta). TF activity was low on confluent HUVECs or on the corresponding extracellular-matrix (ECM prepared by exposure of HUVECs to 0.1 N NH4OH). In contrast, it was high when HUVECs were stimulated with LPS or IL1 beta, and significantly higher (p < 0.05) with LPS+IL1 beta. The TF activity associated with the stimulated ECM was 2-fold higher (p < 0.05) than that expressed on the luminal surface of the stimulated HUVECs, irrespective of the agonist or combination of agonists used. These surfaces were exposed to non-anticoagulated human blood at a venous (50 s-1) and an arterial (650 s-1) wall shear rate in parallel-plate perfusion chambers for 5 min. Thrombus formation was morphologically quantified by measuring the deposition of platelets and fibrin. Fibrin deposition was also immunologically quantified. Fibrin deposition was related to the level of TF expression. Non-stimulated HUVECs and corresponding ECMs were not thrombogenic. The luminal surface of HUVECs stimulated with LPS or IL1 beta alone expressed low levels of TF activity and was a poor inducer of platelet deposition and fibrin deposition (< 15%) at 50 s-1.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the reactivity of immunoreagents developed for clinical applications in humans in different animal species (hen, mouse, rat, rabbit, guinea-pig, dog, pig, sheep, baboon). Prothrombin fragment 1 + 2, thrombin-antithrombin III complex and fibrinopeptide A were tested for coagulation, platelet factor 4 and beta-thromboglobulin for platelet activation, glycoprotein IIb-IIIa, glycoprotein Ib and P-selectin for platelet membrane glycoproteins, D-dimers for fibrinolysis, thrombomodulin for activation of endothelial cells and thrombospondin and von Willebrand factor for adhesive proteins. Prothrombin fragment 1 + 2, platelet factor 4, beta-thromboglobulin and D-dimers were revealed only in baboons. Fibrinopeptide A was well detected in baboons but weakly in mice, dogs, pigs and sheep. Whereas glycoprotein IIb-IIIa was revealed on guinea-pig, dog and sheep platelets and glycoprotein Ib on rabbit and dog platelets, P-selectin and thrombomodulin were never detected. Thrombospondin was revealed in hens, mice, rats, guinea-pigs, pigs, sheep and baboons and von Willebrand factor in mice, rats, guinea-pigs, dogs, pigs, sheep and baboons. Interestingly, thrombin-antithrombin III complex (TAT) was detected in all species tested except the hen. A time- and dose-dependent increase in TAT was observed when rats, dogs or pigs were infused with thromboplastin (4.5-450 microliters/kg/h), while administration of hirudin (1 mg/kg) abolished this TAT generation. Thus, the TAT immunoassay could provide a tool for the screening of antithrombotic drugs in a number of animal species. However, the possibility of using a wider panel of human immunoreagents would appear to be restricted to baboons which display good species cross-reactivity.

Abstract
We have investigated the influence of blood flow on thrombin generation, fibrin formation, and fibrin deposition on procoagulant and nonprocoagulant surfaces. Nonanticoagulated human blood was drawn for 5 minutes directly from an antecubital vein over stimulated endothelial cells expressing tissue factor and over human type III collagen fibrils, positioned in parallel-plate perfusion chambers. The shear rates at these surfaces were 50, 650, and 2,600 s-1. Deposition of platelets and fibrin was measured by morphometry. Thrombin and fibrin formation was determined by measuring prothrombin fragments 1 + 2 (F 1 + 2), thrombin-antithrombin III complexes, (T-AT) and fibrinopeptide A (FPA) in blood effluent from the perfusion chamber at the end of the 5-minute perfusion period. On procoagulant endothelial cells, the thrombi were primarily composed of fibrin. The fibrin deposition (81%, 21%, and 2% at 50, 650, and 2,600 s-1, respectively) and plasma levels of F 1 + 2, T-AT and FPA were shear rate dependent and highest at 50 s-1. There was a positive correlation between F 1 + 2 and T-AT and the fibrin deposition (P < .01). In contrast, the collagen surface triggered primarily thrombi that were composed of platelets. The platelet thrombi and plasma levels of F 1 + 2 and T-AT were also dependent on the shear rate, but highest at 650 and 2,600 s-1. F 1 + 2 and T-AT reached the same level as observed with procoagulant endothelial cells at the higher shear rates. There was a positive correlation between F 1 + 2 and T-AT and the platelet thrombus formation (P < .05), confirming the predominant role of platelets in thrombin generation. Thus, thrombin formation is strongly influenced by the blood flow, and this effect depends on the composition of the thrombogenic surface.

Abstract
The relative antithrombotic effectiveness of targeting glycoprotein (GP) Ib-dependent versus GPIIb-IIIa-dependent platelet interactions has been determined in baboons by measuring thrombus formation after infusing comparable antihemostatic doses of anti-von Willebrand factor (vWF) monoclonal antibody (MoAb) BB3-BD5, anti-GPIb MoAb AP1, and anti-GPIIb-IIIa MoAb LJ-CP8 under conditions of arterial and venous flow (shear rates of 750 to 1,000 seconds-1 and 100 seconds-1, respectively). Thrombus formation was quantified as 111In-platelet deposition and 125I-fibrin accumulation on segments of collagen-coated tubing interposed in chronic exteriorized arteriovenous (AV) shunts for 40 minutes. In vitro, anti-vWF MoAb BB3 BD5 (IgG) and anti-GPIb MoAb AP1 [IgG or F(ab)2 fragments] inhibited ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation (IC50 50 nmol/L and 1 mumol/L, respectively), but neither of these MoAbs blocked platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) (P > .5). Conversely, anti-GPIIb-IIIa MoAb LJ-CP8 inhibited platelet aggregation induced by ADP (IC50 1 mumol/L, but failed to block ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation (P > .5). In vivo, the intravenous infusion of anti-vWF MoAb BB3 BD5 or anti-GPIIb-IIIa MoAb LJ-CP8 into baboons at doses that abolished corresponding agonist-induced aggregation ex vivo (bolus injections of 0.5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg, respectively) prolonged template bleeding times from baseline values of 4.0 +/- 0.3 minutes to > 27 +/- 4 minutes, and to > 26 +/- 4 minutes, respectively (P < .001 in both cases), without affecting the peripheral platelet count (P > .5). However, injection of anti-GPIb MoAb AP1 [10 mg/kg as IgG or 1 mg/kg as F(ab)2 fragments] produced immediate irreversible thrombocytopenia (< 40,000 platelets/microL). Anti-GPIIb-IIIa MoAb LJ-CP8 abolished platelet deposition and fibrin accumulation on collagen segments under both arterial and venous flow conditions (P < .01 in all cases), whereas MoAb BB3 BD5 produced minimal inhibition of platelet deposition and no decrease in fibrin accumulation at arterial shear rates and undetectable antithrombotic outcomes at low shear. Thus, inhibiting GPIIb-IIIa-dependent platelet recruitment abrogates both thrombus formation and platelet hemostatic function at both venous and arterial shear rates. By contrast, interfering with GPIb-vWF-dependent platelet interactions abolishes platelet hemostatic function without producing corresponding antithrombotic effects.

Abstract
We investigated the effects of high plasma lipid levels on platelet adhesion and platelet thrombus formation in nonanticoagulated human blood on collagen fibrils at an arterial wall shear rate of 2600 seconds-1. Nonanticoagulated blood was drawn directly at a flow rate of 10 mL/min for 3 minutes from an antecubital vein of patients with type IIa (n = 5) and type IIb (n = 4) hyperlipoproteinemia over purified human type III collagen fibrils that were positioned on a plastic coverslip in a parallel-plate perfusion chamber. Results were compared with those obtained in healthy individuals with normal lipid plasma levels (n = 9). Blood-collagen interactions were quantified by morphometry as platelet-collagen adhesion, thrombus volume, and fibrin deposition. Platelet-collagen adhesion in the two groups of patients was significantly higher than in healthy individuals (70.7 [61.2 to 82.0] and 70.3 [66.4 to 81.0] in types IIa and IIb patients, respectively, versus 51.2 [44.5 to 68.6] in control subjects; P < .05. All values are percent median [range]). In contrast, the thrombus volume was similar in the three groups (11.3 [8.0 to 13.0], 9.6 [6.4 to 15.3], and 10.2 [6.8 to 16.1] microns3/microns2 [range], respectively). Differences in fibrin deposition were not observed. Thus, it appears that platelet-collagen adhesion is augmented in patients with type IIa and IIb hyperlipoproteinemia, indicating that the process of thrombogenesis is hastened in these patients.

Abstract
The pentasaccharide (PS) comprising the minimal heparin structure capable of binding with antithrombin III (ATIII) and exhibiting anti-factor Xa (anti-fXa) activity in plasma without producing detectable antithrombin activity, has been evaluated for its relative antithrombotic and antihemostatic effects in a baboon model combining both platelet-rich and fibrin-rich thrombosis. Thrombosis was produced in a two-component thrombogenic device incorporated into an exteriorized femoral arteriovenous (AV) shunt in baboons; the proximal component constituted a segment of collagen-coated tubing and induced platelet-rich arterial-type thrombus, while the distal component consisted of an expanded chamber producing static and disturbed flow and initiated fibrin-rich venous-type thrombosis. Thrombus formation was measured as the deposition of 111In-platelets and the accumulation of 125I-fibrin. PS was administered intravenously to maintain plasma anti-fXa activity at three different levels: a) low dose (LD) 0.3 +/- 0.1 U/ml; b) intermediate dose (ID) 0.6 +/- 0.1 U/ml; and c) high dose (HD) 5.6 +/- 0.4 U/ml. In untreated controls, thrombus formed rapidly, reaching a plateau by 40 min of 2.3 +/- 0.2 x 10(9) platelets and 0.62 +/- 0.04 mg fibrin deposited on the collagen segments, and 1.9 +/- 0.4 x 10(9) platelets and 3.3 +/- 0.4 mg fibrin accumulated in the chambers.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Dermatan sulfate (DS), a factor that amplifies plasma heparin cofactor II antithrombin (HCII) activity, has been evaluated in baboons for its relative antithrombotic and antihemostatic effects by use of a model that combines both platelet-rich and fibrin-rich thrombus formation. Thrombus was generated in a two-component thrombogenic device incorporated into exteriorized femoral arteriovenous shunts, in which a proximal segment of collagen-coated tubing induces platelet-rich arterial-type thrombus and distal expanded chambers with disturbed and static flow produce fibrin-rich venous-type thrombus. Thrombus formation was measured as the deposition of autologous 111In-platelets by imaging analysis and by the accumulation of 125I-fibrin. Intravenous infusion of DS at 0.83, 8.3, and 42 mg/kg maintained plasma levels at approximately 7, 70, and 400 micrograms/mL, respectively, throughout the period of study. By enhancing HCII-dependent inactivation of soluble thrombin, DS prolonged the coagulation times, reduced plasma fibrinopeptide A levels, and decreased fibrin-rich thrombus formation in the chamber portion of the device in a dose-dependent manner, ie, the intermediate dose reduced fibrin accumulation by approximately 70% (P < .05). By contrast, neither platelet deposition on collagen nor platelet hemostatic function, assessed with bleeding time determinations, was significantly affected by DS at any dose studied (P > .2 and P > .1, respectively, for the high dose), a finding presumably explained by the resistance of immobilized thrombin to inactivation by DS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To establish the plasma evolution of prothrombin fragments 1+2 (F 1+2), thrombin-antithrombin III complexes (TAT), fibrin fragment D-Dimers (DD), von Willebrand factor antigen (vWf), Type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor antigen (PAI) and blood platelet count during normal pregnancy and to compare these values with those obtained in hypertensive or pre-eclamptic pregnancies. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SUBJECTS Forty-seven healthy pregnant women with gestational age ranging between 5 and 40 weeks, and fourteen women with gestational age ranging between 25 and 38 weeks presenting with either gestational hypertension (n = 4) or pre-eclampsia (n = 10). Numbers of nulliparous women in the control, hypertension and pre-eclampsia groups were 13/47 (28%), 1/4 (25%) and 9/10 (90%), respectively. RESULTS All six markers increased with gestational age in normal pregnant women (P < 0.01). Using the upper limit of 95% prediction interval obtained from regression curves as normality threshold, TAT showed the best sensitivity (71% vs < 30% for F1+2, DD, vWf, PAI and platelet count). CONCLUSION TAT appears to be an interesting marker for detecting haemostatic system alterations in pregnancies complicated by hypertension or pre-eclampsia. A large prospective study to determine its clinical usefulness for such complicated pregnancies is currently in progress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Because the adhesive glycoprotein von Willebrand Factor (vWF) mediates initial platelet attachment at sites of vascular injury and may also contribute to shear-dependent platelet thrombus formation, we have determined in vivo the relative antithrombotic efficacy and hemostatic safety of infusing murine monoclonal antibodies against vWF. METHODS In baboons with chronic arteriovenous shunts, thrombus formation was initiated by interposition of thrombogenic Dacron vascular grafts (VG) and endarterectomized baboon aortic segments (EAS). Thrombus formation on VG and EAS was assessed by use of real-time scintillation camera imaging of indium 111-labeled platelet deposition. In control and treated animals (anti-vWF antibody) platelet hemostatic competence was evaluated by means of serial measurements of platelet count, bleeding time, and ex vivo platelet aggregation in response to adenosine diphosphate and ristocetin. RESULTS Although bolus antibody infusions did not affect circulating platelet counts, bleeding times were immediately prolonged to 28 +/- 4 minutes (vs 4.7 +/- 0.4 minutes before treatment, p = 0.01). Bleeding times normalized within 24 hours after antibody administration. Platelet aggregation in response to adenosine diphosphate was unchanged by antibody therapy, whereas ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation was abolished acutely and remained impaired for 24 hours. Platelet deposition on VG after 60 minutes of exposure to flowing blood was 2.95 +/- 0.74 x 10(9) platelets/cm in six control animals as compared to 1.86 +/- 0.16 x 10(9) platelets/cm in five treated animals (p = 0.04). Similarly, platelet deposition on EAS averaged 4.40 +/- 0.89 x 10(9) platelets/cm in control studies and was reduced significantly by antibody therapy (1.52 +/- 0.50 x 10(9) platelets/cm, p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Despite profound interruption of platelet hemostatic functions, therapeutic targeting of vWF modestly inhibits platelet-dependent thrombosis.

Abstract
To determine the role of thrombin in high blood flow, platelet-dependent thrombotic and hemostatic processes we measured the relative antithrombotic and antihemostatic effects in baboons of hirudin, a highly potent and specific antithrombin, and compared the effects of heparin, an antithrombin III-dependent inhibitor of thrombin. Thrombus formation was determined in vivo using three relevant models (homologous endarterectomized aorta, collagen-coated tubing, and Dacron vascular graft) by measuring: (1) platelet deposition, using gamma camera imaging of 111In-platelets; (2) fibrin deposition, as assessed by the incorporation of circulating 125I-fibrinogen; and (3) occlusion. The continuous intravenous infusion of 1, 5, and 20 nmol/kg per minute of recombinant hirudin (desulfatohirudin) maintained constant plasma levels of 0.16 +/- 0.03, 0.79 +/- 0.44, and 3.3 +/- 0.77 mumol/mL, respectively. Hirudin interrupted platelet and fibrin deposition in a dose-dependent manner that was profound at the highest dose for all three thrombogenic surfaces and significant at the lowest dose for thrombus formation on endarterectomized aorta. Thrombotic occlusion was prevented by all doses studied. In contrast, heparin did not inhibit either platelet or fibrin deposition when administered at a dose that maximally prolonged clotting times (100 U/kg) (P greater than .1), and only intermediate effects were produced at 10-fold that dose (1,000 U/kg). Moreover, heparin did not prevent occlusion of the test segments. Hirudin inhibited platelet hemostatic function in concert with its antithrombotic effects (bleeding times were prolonged by the intermediate and higher doses). By comparison, intravenous heparin failed to affect the bleeding time at the 100 U/kg dose (P greater than .5), and only minimally prolonged the bleeding time at the 1,000 U/kg dose (P less than .05). We conclude that platelet-dependent thrombotic and hemostatic processes are thrombin-mediated and that the biologic antithrombin hirudin produces a potent, dose-dependent inhibition of arterial thrombus formation that greatly exceeds the minimal antithrombotic effects produced by heparin.

Abstract
Because the effects of red blood cell (RBC) concentration on hemostasis and thrombus formation have not been studied experimentally under conditions of whole blood flow without anti-coagulation, normal baboons were bled or transfused to obtain three different groups: a low hematocrit (Ht) group (20% less than Ht less than 25%), a normal Ht group (35% less than Ht less than 40%), and a high Ht group (50% less than Ht less than 55%). Measurements of platelet count, bleeding time, platelet aggregation, fibrinogen level, and coagulation time (APTT) were equivalent to normal values in each group. Thrombus formation was induced using a device composed of collagen-coated tubing followed by two sequentially placed expansion chambers designed to exhibit flow recirculation and stasis. The device was exposed for up to 40 minutes in an arterio-venous shunt system. Wall shear rates in the tubular collagen segment were 100 seconds-1 and 500 to 750 seconds-1. The accumulation of 111In-platelets and 125I-fibrinogen/fibrin was measured radioisotopically; RBC incorporation was determined from measurements of total thrombus hemoglobin. Thrombus that formed on the collagen substrate was rich in platelets and poor in fibrin and RBCs. Under high flow conditions, thrombus composition showed no dependence on Ht. Surprisingly, under low flow conditions, platelet thrombus volume was negatively correlated with Ht (r = -.73, P = .005), and was increased by greater than twofold in the low Ht group as compared with the high Ht group. Thrombus that formed in the disturbed flow regions contained relatively few platelets but was rich in fibrin and RBCs. The predominant finding was a positive correlation between RBC incorporation and Ht at both high and low shear rates (r = .90, P = .00003; and r = .77, P = .002, respectively), with thrombus volume increasing three- to sixfold between the low and high Ht groups. Thus, in vivo variations in Ht ranging between 20% and 55% did not affect hemostasis, but were found either to promote or inhibit the net accumulation of thrombus, depending on local flow conditions.

Abstract
We have compared the relative antithrombotic and antihemostatic effects of the very low molecular weight heparin CY222 with standard unfractionated heparin (SH) in a baboon model of platelet-dependent thrombosis. Thrombus formation was induced by placement of a thrombogenic device in an exteriorized femoral arteriovenous shunt under conditions of intermediate-shear blood flow. The device consisted of a collagen-coated cannular segment positioned proximal to two regions of expanded diameter exhibiting disturbed flow and stasis. Thrombus formation was measured in real time by indium 111-labeled platelet imaging. The collagen-coated surface accumulated thrombi composed largely of platelets, and the regions of disturbed flow were morphologically rich in fibrin and red cells. SH and CY222 were administered by continuous infusion for 1 hour. Although both heparin preparations abolished thrombus formation in the low-shear fibrin-rich regions at plasma levels less than 0.5 anti-Xa U/ml, platelet deposition onto the collagen surface was not reduced by either SH or CY222 at that dosage. These findings were consistent with previously observed therapeutic benefits of this level of anti-Xa activity in venous, but not arterial, thrombosis. Platelet deposition on the collagen was reduced in a dose-dependent manner by both SH and CY222 administered at doses between 1 and 5 anti-Xa U/ml. It is important to note that although heparin preparations produced profound and equivalent antithrombotic effects for platelet-dependent thrombus formation at comparable levels of anti-Xa activity, SH prolonged both the coagulation time and the bleeding time substantially more than did CY222.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Since platelet hemostatic functions are mediated in part through the binding of adhesive proteins containing an RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) recognition sequence, and since platelet reactions may be inhibited in vitro by RGD-containing peptides, we assessed in vivo the antithrombotic activity of RGDV (Arg-Gly-Asp-Val) tetrapeptide using a baboon thrombosis model. Thrombus formation was induced by a device consisting of a tubular segment coated with type I collagen, followed by two regions of expanded diameter exhibiting disturbed flow and stasis. The thrombogenic device was incorporated into femoral arteriovenous shunts under conditions of intermediate wall shear rate (100 s-1). Thrombus formation was measured by scintillation camera imaging of 111In-platelets and by counting of 125I-fibrinogen/fibrin. Thrombus that formed on the collagen substrate was rich in platelets, while thrombus formed in the disturbed flow regions was rich in fibrin and red cells. RGDV peptide was infused proximal to the thrombogenic device to maintain local plasma concentrations of 25, 50, and 100 microM. Infused RGDV decreased the accumulation of both platelets and fibrin on the collagen substrate in a dose-response manner. At the highest dose platelet and fibrin deposition after 40 min was reduced by greater than 80% (P less than 0.01). In the region of disturbed flow, RGDV (100 microM) reduced platelet deposition by 85% (P less than 0.01) but did not reduce the accumulation of fibrin (P less than 0.3). Similarly, the peptide inhibited the release of granular proteins from platelets associated with thrombus (platelet factor 4, beta-thromboglobulin; P less than 0.01), but did not prevent the appearance of fibrinopeptide A in circulating blood (P greater than 0.1). No systemic alterations in blood pressure, bleeding time, or platelet aggregation ex vivo were produced by locally infused RGDV. The antithrombotic effects of RGDV peptide disappeared within 5 min after discontinuing the infusion. In control studies infused RGEV (Arg-Gly-Glu-Val, 100 microM) showed no antithrombotic activity. Thus, RGDV selectively blocks platelet-dependent thrombus formation in vivo.

Abstract
To study mechanisms of complex thrombus formation in vivo, and to compare the relative antithrombotic effects of anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents, a model was developed in baboons. Segments of collagen-coated tubing followed by two sequentially placed expansion chambers exhibiting disturbed flow patterns were exposed to native blood under laminar flow conditions. The device was incorporated for 1 hour into an exteriorized arteriovenous shunt in baboons under controlled blood flow (20 ml/min). Morphologic evaluation by scanning electron microscopy showed that thrombi associated with collagen were relatively rich in platelets but thrombi in the chambers were rich in fibrin and red cells. Deposition of indium 111-labeled platelets was continuously measured with a scintillation camera. Platelet deposition increased in a linear (collagen-coated segment) or exponential (chambers 1 and 2) fashion over time, with values after 40 minutes averaging 24.1 +/- 3.3 x 10(8) platelets (collagen segment), 16.7 +/- 3.4 x 10(8) platelets (chamber 1), and 8.4 +/- 2.4 x 10(8) platelets (chamber 2). Total fibrinogen deposition after 40 minutes was determined by using iodine 125-labeled baboon fibrinogen and averaged 0.58 +/- 0.14 mg in the collagen segment, 1.51 +/- 0.27 mg in chamber 1, and 0.95 +/- 0.25 mg in chamber 2. Plasma levels of beta-thromboglobulin (beta TG), platelet-factor 4 (PF4), and fibrinopeptide A (FPA) increased fourfold to fivefold after 60 minutes of blood exposure to the thrombotic device. Platelet deposition onto the collagen segment, chamber 1, and chamber 2 was linearly dependent on the circulating platelet count. Platelet accumulation in chamber 1 and chamber 2 was also dependent on the presence of the proximal collagen segment. An anticoagulating dose of standard heparin decreased platelet deposition in the chambers (p less than 0.05) but did not decrease deposition onto the collagen segment. Although beta TG and PF4 levels remained elevated after the administration of standard heparin, the elevation in plasma FPA was interrupted. Further evidence that the thrombotic process was dependent on platelets was provided by the finding that prostaglandin I2 at high concentration (35 ng/ml) decreased platelet deposition onto the collagen segment and in chambers 1 and 2, decreased beta TG and PF4 release, and reduced FPA formation. The combination of standard heparin and PGI2 produced the most potent inhibition of platelet thrombus formation and prevented the increases in plasma PF4, beta TG and FPA.

Abstract
A recent study (Fernandez et al., Thromb. Haemostas. 1987; 57: 286-93) demonstrated that when rabbits were injected with the minimum weight of a variety of glycosaminoglycans required to inhibit tissue factor-induced thrombus formation by approximately 80%, exogenous thrombin was inactivated approximately twice as fast in the post-treatment plasmas as the pre-treatment plasmas. In this study, we investigated the relationship between inhibition of thrombus formation and the extent of thrombin inhibition ex vivo. We also investigated the relationship between inhibition of thrombus formation and inhibition of prothrombin activation ex vivo. Four sulfated polysaccharides (SPS) which influence coagulation in a variety of ways were used in this study. Unfractionated heparin and the fraction of heparin with high affinity to antithrombin III potentiate the antiproteinase activity of antithrombin III. Pentosan polysulfate potentiates the activity of heparin cofactor II. At less than 10 micrograms/ml of plasma, all three SPS also inhibit intrinsic prothrombin activation. The fourth agent, dermatan sulfate, potentiates the activity of heparin cofactor II but fails to inhibit intrinsic prothrombin activation even at concentrations which exceed 60 micrograms/ml of plasma. Inhibition of thrombus formation by each sulfated polysaccharides was linearly related to the extent of thrombin inhibition achieved ex vivo. These observations confirm the utility of catalysis of thrombin inhibition as an index for assessing antithrombotic potential of glycosaminoglycans and other sulfated polysaccharides in rabbits. With the exception of pentosan polysulfate, there was no clear relationship between inhibition of thrombus formation and inhibition of prothrombin activation ex vivo.

Abstract
Standard heparin (SH) and dermatan sulfate (DS) two glycosaminoglycans with different pharmacological targets are effective antithrombotic agents in the rabbit. We have investigated the antithrombotic activity of the association DS plus SH. It was found that doses as low as 25 micrograms/kg for DS and 10 micrograms/kg for SH were ineffective when injected separately but generated a high and significant antithrombotic activity when injected together. These results were confirmed when higher doses of each compound were delivered in association. Further experiments were performed to determine if the enhancement of the antithrombotic activity of DS by HS resulted from its anti-factor IIa or anti-factor Xa activity or from its moiety without affinity to AT III. A low molecular weight heparin (CY 216) with an anti-factor Xa/anti-factor IIa ratio of 5, the synthetic pentasaccharide bearing the minimum binding sequence to antithrombin III, and a low affinity fraction of SH to AT III did not increase the antithrombotic activity of DS; in contrast a high affinity fraction of SH to AT III had the same effect than SH. We conclude that the enhancement of the antithrombotic activity of DS by SH mainly results from its anti-factor IIa activity.
