Clotting activities and antigen concentrations of contact factors in XXXX .

@entity1 @entity8 @entity18036 @entity740 @entity13474
Factor XII, @entity18036 (PK) and @entity13474 ( @entity13474 ) clotting activities and antigen concentrations in @entity8 @entity1 were studied. Chronic hemodialysis led to a reduction of F XII, PK and @entity13474 clotting activities. F XII and PK antigen levels were also low. In contrast, the @entity13474 antigen was normal with respect to concentration as well as electrophoretic migration behaviour on 2 D-immunelectrophoresis. In kidney transplant recipients more than three month after the transplantation, we found an increased of F XII and PK clotting activities, which appeared to depend on the time elapsed since the operation. However, the antigen levels remained normal. The group of @entity740 @entity1 not requiring hemodialysis exhibited normal mean values of all three clotting activities as well as normal F XII and @entity13474 antigen levels. The PK antigen was reduced. However, a separate evaluation of F XII clotting activities (F XII:C) in @entity1 with @entity8 showed elevated F XII:C which correlated with the BUN values. During acute processes of the @entity8 we observed very high PK clotting activities, which normalized with stabilization of the @entity1 . Our results show that the contact phase coagulation factors behave abnormally in certain @entity8 @entity1 .
