Abstract
Bovine plasma Factor V and Factor Va, the latter prepared by thrombin or venom activator action on Factor V, are not inactivated by diisopropylfluorophosphate or antithrombin III nor do they form identifiable complexes with either of these reagents. On the basis of these data, it is concluded that bovine Factor V and Factor Va are not serine proteases.

Abstract
An assay of human antiplasmins has been developed utilizing radial diffusion of plasma from wells cut in plasmin-enriched, fibrinogen-agarose plates. After diffusion the fibrinogen is clotted. Zones of fibrin protected from background fibrinolysis develop as the result of plasma antiplasmin activity. A pooled plasma standard was taken to contain 100% antiplasmin activity. Antiplasmin activity of 52 normal subjects varied from 64 to 132%. Washed platelets contained 1-5% antiplasmin activity. Using antisera to precipitate individual inhibitors, physical methods of separation, and electrophoresis of plasma in agarose, several different proteins were found to have antiplasmin activity in this assay. Thus, alpha2-macroglobulin contributed 56%, alpha1-antitrypsin 20%, antithrombin III 2%, and other proteins 22% of the total antiplasmin activity. 1 ml of whole plasma neutralized 7.0 CTA units of plasmin.

Abstract
Modification of 5--6 arginine residues of thrombin with 1,2-cyclohexanedione has resulted in the selective abolition of the heparin sensitivity of the enzyme's reaction with antithrombin-III, whereas the antithrombin-III sensitivity of native and modified thrombin was indistinguishable. It is suggested that heparin accelerates the thrombin antithrombin-III reaction by interacting with thrombin.

Abstract
The factor Xa inactivating function of antithrombin III is measured automatically by an amidolytic method, adapted to a centrifugal analyser. Plasma is diluted in buffer with heparin. In stage I, diluted plasma is incubated with excess factor Xa. Heparin accelerates the saturation of antithrombin with factor Xa. In stage II, remaining factor Xa is determined with the chromogenic substrate Bz-Ile-Glu-Gly-Arg-pNA. The precision of the present assay compares favourably with that of the clotting assays and immunoassay. There is a close correlation (r = 0.82) between the results obtained with this assay and the immunoassay of antithrombin III.

Abstract
An endotoxin-activated hemocyte lysate from the horseshoe crab (Tachypleus and Limulus) was found to hydrolyze Bz-Ile-Glu-(gamma-OR)-Gly-Arg-p-nitroanilide (PNA), Bz-Val-Gly-Arg-PNA, Boc-Val-Leu-Gly-Arg-PNA, and Boc-Leu-Gly-Arg-PNA, all of which have the COOH-terminal Gly-Arg sequence. This amidase activity was due to a clottting enzyme contained in the lysate. Furthermore, the amidase activity increased by increasing the concentration of bacterial endotoxin (E. coli, 0111-B4) added to the lysate. Therefore, the measurement of the endotoxin-induced amidase activity made it possible to determine the concentration of the endotoxin.

Abstract
Iodide is an efficient quencher of antithrombin III intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence. The quenching pattern indicates that about 60% of the tryptophyl fluorescence originates from exposed residues in the multitryptophan-containing protein. In denaturing media all of the tryptophyls are solvent-exposed. The binding of heparin to antithrombin III influences the number of solvent-exposed tryptophan residues. By studying the dependence of the quenching on pH, information regarding the presence of charged residues adjacent to tryptophyls was obtained.

Abstract
The coagulation and fibrinolytic systems were investigated in a group of patients with essential hypertension during pregnancy, and the findings were compared with those of normal gravid women. Patients with essential hypertension exhibited the following significant differences: shortened partial thromboplastin times, thrombocytopenia, and decreased antithrombin III levels. Euglobulin lysis times and assays for fibrin breakdown products suggest that essential hypertension is not associated with changes in the fibrinolytic mechanism. Until more sophisticated studies can be performed on such patients, it cannot be concluded that the increased coagulability observed in pregnant patients with essential hypertension represents a state of intravascular coagulation.

Abstract
There is a tendency toward hypercoagulability in the postoperative period. This is manifested by changes in a number of coagulation parameters, and if not offset by some protective mechanism, thrombosis may occur. This protection appears to be mediated more through the fibrinolytic mechanism than through the action of antithrombin 3 (AT-3) because AT-3 activity diminishes in the early postoperative period. The introduction of variables such as invasion of the vascular system, intraoperative heparin administration, administration of whole blood, and insertion of a Dacron prosthesis does not appreciably affect the response of the coagulation profile to operative stress.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of conjugated equine estrogens on the coagulability in menopausal women, blood samples were drawn from 69 menopausal females--35 receiving estrogens and 34 receiving no replacement therapy. Using tests for antithrombin and heparin-antithrombin activities, 14.7% of the control patients were found to be hypercoagulable. This is a 289% increase in the incidence of hypercoagulability in the group treated with estrogens. The particular relevance of this finding to menopausal women and the importance of the use of the coagulation profile in managing such patients is discussed.

Abstract
Platelet function in vitro and in vivo and certain measurements of blood coagulability and fibrinolysis were examined in 12 patients with low tension glaucoma and the results were compared with those obtained in 12 normal subjects matched for age, race, and sex. The data obtained seem to indicate that patients with low tension glaucoma cannot be readily distinguished from individuals of similar age and sex not afflicted with this disorder by measuring these variables. Thus, a "hypercoagulable state," ie, a thrombotic tendency, does not appear to be of major importance in the pathogenesis of this disorder.
