Abstract
The plasma kinin-forming cascade can be activated by contact with negatively charged macromolecules leading to binding and autoactivation of factor XII, activation of prekallikrein to kallikrein by factor XIIa, and cleavage of high molecular weight kininogen (HK) by kallikrein to release the vasoactive peptide bradykinin. Once kallikrein formation begins, there is rapid cleavage of unactivated factor XII to factor XIIa, and this positive feedback is favored kinetically over factor XII autoactivation. Examples of surface initiators that can function in this fashion are endotoxin, sulfated mucopolysaccharides, and aggregated Abeta protein. Physiological activation appears to occur along the surface of endothelial cells both by the aforementioned contact-initiated reactions as well as bypass pathways that are independent of factor XII. Factor XII binds primarily to cell surface u-PAR (urokinase plasminogen activator receptor); HK binds to gC1qR via its light chain (domain 5) and to cytokeratin 1 by its heavy chain (domain 3) and, to a lesser degree, by its light chain. Prekallikrein circulates bound to HK (as does coagulation factor XI), and prekallikrein is thereby brought to the surface as HK binds. All cell-binding reactions are dependent on zinc ion. Endothelial cells (HUVECs) have bimolecular complexes of u-PAR-cytokeratin 1 and gC1qR-cytokeratin 1 at the cell surface plus free gC1qR, which is present in substantial molar excess. Factor XII appears to interact primarily with the u-PAR-cytokeratin 1 complex, whereas HK binds primarily to the gC1qR-cytokeratin 1 complex and to free gC1qR. Release of endothelial cell heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) or the enzyme prolylcarboxypeptidase leads to activation of the bradykinin-forming cascade by activating the prekallikrein-HK complex. In contrast to factor XIIa, neither will activate prekallikrein in the absence of HK, both reactions require zinc ion, and the stoichiometry suggests interaction of one molecule of Hsp90 (for example) with one molecule of prekallikrein-HK complex. The presence of factor XII, however, leads to a marked augmentation in reaction rate via the kallikrein feedback as well as to a change to classic enzyme-substrate kinetics. The circumstances in which activation is initiated by factor XII autoactivation or by these factor XII bypasses are yet to be defined. The pathologic conditions in which bradykinin generation appears important include hereditary and acquired C1 inhibitor deficiency, cough and angioedema due to ACE inhibitors, endotoxin shock, with contributions to conditions as diverse as Alzheimer's disease, stroke, control of blood pressure, and allergic diseases.

Abstract
The antiheparin agent hexadimethrine bromide, in concentrations of 20 to 200 mug/ml., inhibited the activation by active Hageman factor of the plasma enzyme which releases kinin from substrate. Once activated, this kinin-forming enzyme was not consistently inhibited by hexadimethrine in a concentration of 1 mg/ml. Surfaces which induce kinin formation by activating Hageman factor in plasma (glass, kaolin, celite, barium carbonate and carboxymethylcellulose) were inactivated by bathing in aqueous solutions of hexadimethrine. The effects of hexadimethrine on Hageman factor and on glass were not abolished by amounts of heparin which neutralize most other actions of hexadimethrine. Hexadimethrine prevented the activation by kaolin, but not by streptokinase, of p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester-splitting and fibrinolytic factors in plasma; once these enzymes were activated by kaolin, they could not be inhibited by hexadimethrine. Hexadimethrine, given locally or intravenously into guinea-pigs, reduced the increase in capillary permeability produced by intracutaneous injections of kaolin suspensions.

Abstract
Twenty-six eyes of 26 patients with low-tension glaucoma and 34 eyes of 34 patients with high-tension glaucoma were studied. Fifty-one measurements were available on each patient, including visual field indices, finger blood flow measurements, as well as haematological, coagulation, and biochemical and rheological variables. Multivariate analysis revealed two statistically distinct groups of patients, with low and high tension glaucoma cases equally distributed in both. The smaller group (15 patients) showed a suggestion of vasospastic finger blood flow measurements, and had a high positive correlation between the mean deviation (MD) index of field severity and the highest intraocular pressure (r = 0.715, p = 0.0008). The second, larger group (45 patients) showed disturbed coagulation and biochemical measurements, suggestive of vascular disease, and had no correlation between the MD index and the highest intraocular pressure.

Abstract
Increased intraocular pressure is accepted as a primary etiologic factor for the atrophy of the optic nerve head and visual field defects of high-tension glaucoma. Other factors must be present to explain these findings in low-tension glaucoma. One of the current theories is that low-tension glaucoma is the result of decreased optic nerve perfusion on the basis of vascular disease or other factors such as altered blood viscosity. This study compared the non-invasive vascular profiles, coagulation tests, and rheological profiles of 46 consecutive cases of low-tension glaucoma with 69 similarly unselected cases of high-tension glaucoma and 47 age-matched controls. Despite the multifactorial approach and the use of previously validated objective tests, no significant group differences were detected with any of the above investigations. If vascular disease is important in the etiology of low-tension glaucoma, then it must be localized or vasospastic since this study does not support the concept of a generalized vascular etiology, either of an atheromatous or hyperviscous nature, for the genesis of low-tension glaucoma.

Abstract
The interaction of Factor XIIa with Factor XI was investigated using two monoclonal antibodies, one (3Cl) directed against the heavy chain of Factor XIa and the other (5F4) against its light chain. 3C1 either as intact IgG or as Fab' fragment, enhanced the rate of Factor XIa generation in the fluid phase but inhibited it in the presence of kaolin and high molecular weight (HMW) kininogen. In contrast, the Fab' fragments of 5F4 inhibited only the fluid phase activation and had no effect on the surface-mediated activation. 3C1 was found to block the binding of Factor XI to HMW kininogen, whereas 5F4 did not. We conclude: a domain on the heavy chain region of Factor XI is essential for binding to HMW kininogen and for optimal surface-mediated activation by Factor XIIa; and binding of 3C1 to Factor XI changes its conformation rendering it a more favorable substrate for Factor XIIa in the fluid phase.

Abstract
Plasminogen activators (PA) in the euglobulin fraction of dextran sulfate activated plasma (DS-EF) were assayed on fibrin plates. Activity related to tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) or urokinase (u-PA) was quantified by antiserum inhibition. The DS-EF contained 30% t-PA, 30% u-PA and 40-50% activity unrelated to t-PA or u-PA. The latter was completely inhibited by 1.7 mumol/1 C1-inhibitor (C1INH), the two former were less sensitive. Addition of flufenamate to the DS-EF (DS-EF/Fluf) from normal and two factor XII (F XII)-deficient plasmas increased their activities to the same high level. More than 50% of the activity was unrelated to t-PA or u-PA, 30-40% was u-PA and 5-10% t-PA related. After addition of fibrinogen to DS-EF/Fluf and clotting with thrombin, the remaining solution contained only about 30% of the total activity, including less than 10% u-PA. The epsilon-aminocaproic acid inhibition pattern obtained with the DS-EF was uniform, and thus different from the biphasic pattern obtained with the low fibrin affinity PA, two-chain urokinase. Thus, both the plasma u-PA and the major unidentified PA in plasma have affinity for fibrin.

Abstract
Kinetics of plasminogen activation by purified activated plasma kallikrein have been studied in a purified system using Glu-plasminogen as a substrate. A synthetic paranitroanilide substrate was used for quantification of the formed plasmin. In that system kallikrein cleaved plasminogen with a Km value of 0.56 microM, a kcat of 1.6 X 10(-4) s-1 and a catalytic efficiency kcat/Km of 2.7 X 10(-4) s-1 microM-1. Addition of CNBr fibrinogen fragments resulted in an increase of Km to 1.18 microM, an increase of kcat to 5.1 X 10(-4) s-1 and an increase in the catalytic rate constant kcat/Km to 4.3 X 10(-4) s-1 microM-1. Addition of purified high molecular weight kininogen had no effect on the kinetics of plasminogen activation whether or not stimulating fibrinogen fragments were present. A stimulating effect of fibrinogen fragments could also be shown for the cleavage of the low molecular weight paranitroanilide substrate H-D-Pro-Phe-Arg-pNA by kallikrein; in that system the kcat for substrate cleavage by kallikrein increased from 200 s-1 to 280 s-1, while the Km value remained unchanged. From these data it can be concluded that based on enzyme kinetic studies plasminogen activator activity of purified plasma kallikrein is about 1/1000 of that of high molecular weight urokinase and is only slightly influenced by addition of stimulating fibrinogen fragments. Addition of high molecular weight kininogen does not affect plasminogen activator activity of purified plasma kallikrein.

Abstract
Acute systemic blood changes were measured in New Zealand white rabbits after severe and mild frostbite injury to the foot. There were observed after 72 hr, in the severely frostbitten rabbits, a decrease in erythrocytes, hematocrit, lymphocytes, and albumin, and an increase in total leukocytes, neutrophils, platelets, fibrinogen, and antithrombin III. Mildly frostbitten rabbits showed similar changes except for no changes in the platelets, albumin, and antithrombin III. In severely frostbitten rabbits, after 72 hr, the changes in the plasma coagulation tests were a prolonged partial thromboplastin time, an accelerated prothrombin time, and increased activities of Factors VII, IX, X, and XI. In mildly frostbitten rabbits there were a prolonged partial thromboplastin time and an increased activity of Factor VII. No changes in fibrinolysis were seen in either group of rabbits. Platelet aggregation, studied only in the severely frostbitten rabbits, showed a change only by an increase in the slope of the collagen-induced platelet aggregation. The blood changes observed in the rabbit model are different than those reported in human frostbite cases. No disseminated intravascular coagulation was apparent in the rabbit model after frostbite injury.

Abstract
In order to compare the relative potencies of plasma kallikrein, beta-Factor XIIa, Factor XIa and urokinase as plasminogen activators, plasminogen activation by these proteins was studied using a radiolabeled fibrin plate assay. Urokinase was approximately 20,000 times more active than kallikrein or Factor XIa and 300,000 times more active than beta-Factor XIIa. Kallikrein and Factor XIa were approximately equal in plasminogen activator activity and were 20 times more potent than beta-Factor XIIa.

Abstract
Measurements of coagulation factor XII levels in F1 progeny of a cat having factor XII deficiency revealed an autosomal recessive pattern similar to that reported in humans (Hageman trait). A study of the pedigree of the colony revealed that F1 kittens had approximately 50% factor XII activity while kittens produced by backcrossing with an F1 progeny possessed an average of 50% and a less than 2% factor XII activity in an approximate 1:1 ratio. Kittens having an average of 50% factor XII activity were postulated heterozygous for the trait while progeny with less than 2% activity were considered genetically homozygous.

Abstract
The intravenous injection into rats of dextran (average MW 70,000) 10 mg/100 g caused marked hypotension after a delay of about 5 minutes. Blood samples collected by cardiac puncture at this time were tested for the amounts of prekallikrein activator (PKA) and kallikrein after acetone- and then kaolin activation of the plasminogen-free plasma. PKA was assayed by measuring the initial rate of release of benzoyl arginine esterase (BAEe) activity in a preparation of partially purified human prekallikrein, and kallikrein was assayed by measuring the BAEe esterase activity. Significant reductions of both parameters were registered, and the amount of high molecular weight kininogen (HMWK) present in the plasma was also reduced. Pretreatment of the rats with epsilon-aminocaproic acid intraperitoneally (200-300 mg/100 g) abolished the dextran-caused decreases in the plasma levels of the above mentioned factors, and reduced the fall in blood pressure. The addition of purified human HMWK to the plasma before the acetone activation procedure was started, increased the yield of PKA activity in the final enzyme preparation. When PKA was assayed after kaolin activation of plasma at 0 degrees using the method developed by Laake & Vennerød (1973a & b) for the determination of PKA (activated factor XII) in human plasma, no differences were registered between plasma from rats treated with dextran and plasma obtained from control rats. It is suggested that the low PKA activity of the acetone activated enzyme preparation from plasma of rats treated with dextran was due to the loss of HMWK or a fraction of HMWK.

Abstract
An asymptomatic woman (Ms. Williams) was found to have a severe abnormality in the surface-activated intrinsic coagulation, fibrinolytic, and kinin-generating pathways. Assays for known coagulation factors were nromal while Fletcher factor (pre-kallikrein) was 45%, insufficient to account for the observed markedly prolonged partial thromboplastin time. Plasminogen proactivator was present at 20% of normal levels and addition of highly purified plasminogen proactivator containing 10% plasminogen activator partially corrected the coagulation and fibrinolytic abnormalities but not the kinin-generating defect. This effect was due to its plasminogen activator content. In addition, Williams trait plasma failed to convert prekallilrein to lakkilrein or release kinin upon incubation with kaolin. Kininogen antigen was undetectable. When normal plasma was fractionated to identify the factor that corrects all the abnormalities in Williams trait plasma, the Williams factor was identified as a form of kininogen by its behavior on ion exchange chromatography, gel filtration, disc gel electrophoresis, and elution from an anti-low molecular weight kininogen immunoadsorbent. High molecular weight kininogen as well as a subfraction of low molecular weight kininogen, possessed this corrective activity while the bulk of low molecular weight kininogen functioned only as a kallikrein substrate. Kininogen therefore is a critical factor required for the functioning of Hageman factor-dependent coagulation and fibrinolysis and for the activation of prekallikrein.

Abstract
The structure of Hageman factor, isolated from human plasma, was analyzed before and after enzymatic activation. The purified molecule is a single polypeptide chain of 80,000 molecular weight (mol wt) sedimenting at 4.5S. An amino acid analysis has been performed. The concentration of Hageman factor in normal human plasma was found to be 29 mug/ml with variation between individuals ranging from 15 to 47 mug/ml. Treatment of the molecule with kallikrein, plasmin, or trypsin resulted in cleavage at two primary sites, yielding fragments of 52,000, 40,000, and 28,000 mol wt. No further changes occurred in the fragments with subsequent reduction. Prekallikrein-activating ability was associated exclusively with the 28,000 moiety.

The lysis of clots formed by the addition of thrombin to dilute whole plasma containing 125I-labelled fibrinogen was examined in kinetic assays which assessed clot size and release of radiolabel into the lysate. Neither platelets, immunoglobulin, nor Hageman factor was essential for clot lysis in this system. Clot lysis was normal in plasma from patients genetically deficient in either C2 or C6 but abnormal in the plasma of two patients with acquired C3 deficiency. Plateletdeficient plasma depleted of C3 by cobra venom factor or adsorbed with zymosan did not sustain clot lysis. These findings indicate the existence of a humoral fibrinolytic pathway in whole human plasma dependent upon C3 but independent of Hageman factor.

Abstract
The effect of highly purified inhibitor of the first component of complement (CāINH), alpha2 macroglobulin (alpha2M), and alpha1 antitrypsin on the components of the fibrinolytic pathway in human plasma has been examined. CāINH was the only factor active upon the Hageman factor fragments functioning at the initial step of the fibrinolytic pathway, alpha2M was the only factor active against the plasminogen activator and the most active inhibitor of plasmin. The inhibition of plasmin by alpha2M appeared stoichiometric with one molecule of alpha2M inhibiting two molecules of plasmin. All three plasma inhibitors were active against plasmin.

Abstract
Highly purified inhibitor of the first component of complement (CāINH) was shown to inhibit the capacity of active Hageman factor fragments to initiate kinin generation, fibrinolysis, and coagulation. The inhibition of prealbumin Hageman factor fragments observed was dependent upon the time of interaction of the fragments with CāINH and not to an effect upon kallikrein or plasmin generated. The inhibition of the coagulant activity of the intermediate sized Hageman factor fragment by CāINH was not due to an effect on PTA or other clotting factors. The inhibition by CāINH of both the prealbumin and intermediate sized Hageman factor fragments occurred in a dose response fashion. The CāINH did not appear to be consumed when the activity of the Hageman factor fragments was blocked, although the fragments themselves could no longer be recovered functionally or as a protein on alkaline disc gel electrophoretic analysis. These results suggest that the CāINH may have an enzymatic effect on the fragments or that an additional site on CāINH is involved in Cā inactivation.

Abstract
The conversion of the plasminogen proactivator to plasminogen activator by activated Hageman factor or its fragments has been recognized as an essential step in the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin. The plasminogen proactivator has been completely separated from prekallikrein and pre-PTA, two other proenzyme substrates of activated Hageman factor or its fragments. Plasminogen proactivator, free of any contaminating proteins as assessed by disc gel electrophoresis or isoelectric focusing, revealed a single band with an isoelectric point of 8.9 corresponding in position to the Hageman factor activatable material eluted from replicate unstained gels. After conversion of plasminogen proactivator by Hageman factor fragments to the plasminogen activator, the active site of the plasminogen activator is not inhibited by C1INH and is thus readily distinguished from that of kallikrein or PTA. The plasminogen activator is susceptible to inactivation by DFP while the plasminogen proactivator is not, as has been the case for esterases having a serine in the active site. Its interaction with plasminogen is inhibited by epsilon-aminocaproic acid.

Abstract
Activation of a plasma fraction containing unactivated Hageman factor and prekallikrein followed by chromatography of this fraction on DEAE-cellulose revealed four peaks having bradykinin-generating activity. Peak 1 contained kallikrein; peaks 2-3, 4, and 5 each contained prekallikrein-activating activity. Elution of peaks 2-3, 4, and 5 from disc gels after electrophoresis at pH 9.3 revealed peaks of prekallikrein-activating activity located at 5-8, 11-12, 15-16, and 20-26 mm, each of which was associated with a peak of clot-promoting activity which specifically corrected Hageman factor deficiency. Conversion of peak 2 to peaks 3, 4, and 5 was associated with a progressive decrease in size, increase in net negative charge, increased prekallikrein-activating activity, and decreased ability to correct Hageman factor deficiency. Plasminogen and plasmin were found on a DEAE-cellulose chromatogram of serum overlapping peaks 2 and 3. Incubation of active Hageman factor with streptokinase-activated plasminogen resulted in enhanced ability of the mixture to activate prekallikrein. Assessment of the products of this reaction by disc gel electrophoresis demonstrated the formation of the prealbumin prekallikrein activator corresponding to the major prekallikrein activator generated by contact activation of human plasma. The conversion of plasminogen to plasmin and the subsequent cleavage of Hageman factor by plasmin to form activators of prekallikrein represents one pathway in which coagulation, fibrinolysis, and inflammation are linked.

Abstract
Activation of plasma kallikrein arginine esterase activity by kaolin resulted in peak activity at 1 min of incubation and a 50% reduction in activity at 5 min in normal plasma, and 30% reduction in the plasma of patients with hereditary angioneurotic edema who lacked the C1 inactivator. The peak esterolytic activity was inhibited by soybean trypsin inhibitor whereas the 5 min activity was resistant to this inhibitor. Acid treatment of normal and hereditary angioneurotic edema plasma destroyed the factor responsible for the fall in esterase activity at 5 min and the factor which rendered the esterase resistant to soybean trypsin inhibitor. Purified alpha(2)-macroglobulin inhibited approximately 50% of the TAMe esterase activity of purified plasma kallikrein without changing its activity toward basic amino acid esters. The interaction between the alpha(2)-macroglobulin and kallikrein resulted in alterations in the gel filtration chromatographic pattern of the TAMe esterase and biologic activity of kallikrein, indicating that kallikrein was bound to the alpha(2)-macroglobulin. The TAMe esterase activity of this complex, isolated by column chromatography, was resistant to C1 inactivator and SBTI. Studies of incubation mixtures of kallikrein, alpha(2)-macroglobulin and C1 inactivator suggested that these inhibitors compete for the enzyme, and that the alpha(2)-macroglobulin partially protects the esterase activity of kallikrein from C1 inactivator. The alpha(2)-macroglobulin isolated from kaolin-activated plasma possessed 240 times the esterolytic activity of the alpha(2)-macroglobulin purified from plasma treated with inhibitors of kallikrein and of its activation. The alpha(2)-macroglobulin blocked the uterine-containing activity and vascular permeability-inducing effects of plasma kallikrein. These studies suggest that the alpha(2)-macroglobulin is a major plasma inhibitor of kallikrein and provide a new example of an interrelationship between the coagulation, fibrinolytic, and kallikrein enzyme systems.

Abstract
As demonstrated by others, fibrinolytic activity was generated in diluted, acidified normal plasma exposed to kaolin, a process requiring Hageman factor (Factor XII). Generation was impaired by adsorbing plasma with glass or similar agents under conditions which did not deplete its content of Hageman factor or plasminogen. The defect could be repaired by addition of a noneuglobulin fraction of plasma or an agent or agents eluted from diatomaceous earth which had been exposed to normal plasma. The restorative agent, tentatively called Hageman factor-cofactor, was partially purified by chromatography and had an apparent molecular weight of approximately 165,000. It could be distinguished from plasma thromboplastin antecedent (Factor XI) and plasma kallikrein, other substrates of Hageman factor, and from the streptokinase-activated pro-activator of plasminogen. Evidence is presented that an additional component may be needed for the generation of fibrinolytic activity in mixtures containing Hageman factor, HF-cofactor, and plasminogen.The long-recognized generation of plasmin activity in chloroform-treated euglobulin fractions of plasma was found to be dependent upon the presence of Hageman factor. Whether chloroform activation of plasminogen requires Hageman factor-cofactor was not determined, but glass-adsorbed plasma, containing Hageman factor and plasminogen, did not generate appreciable fibrinolytic or caseinolytic activity. These studies emphasize the complex nature of the mechanisms which lead to the generation of plasmin in human plasma.
