Tissue factor activity (TFA) of leukemic cells (1 x 10(8) cells/mL) was measured in 44 patients with acute nonlymphoid leukemia (ANLL) by the one-stage assay using factor-IX deficient plasma (OSA-dIX) and two-stage assay (TSA). According to the preventative heparin dose schedule based on the TFA measured by the TSA, all disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) was controlled successfully. The procedure of the TSA was too complicated for clinical use, and its minimal measurable value was 125 units (U)/L of TFA. The OSA-dIX was simpler in its procedure and sensitive enough to measure accurately a TFA quantity as small as 30 U/L with high reproducibility. In 20 ANLL patients with 125 U/L or more of TFA measured by both assays, there was a significant relationship between their logarithms of TFA (r = 0.93, P less than 0.01). These results suggested that DIC complication in ANLL patients would be controlled successfully by the administration of heparin dosage based on the TFA measured by the OSA-dIX.

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.

D004211 Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation A disorder characterized by procoagulant substances entering the general circulation causing a systemic thrombotic process. The activation of the clotting mechanism may arise from any of a number of disorders. A majority of the patients manifest skin lesions, sometimes leading to PURPURA FULMINANS.

D005164 Factor IX Storage-stable blood coagulation factor acting in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. Its activated form, IXa, forms a complex with factor VIII and calcium on platelet factor 3 to activate factor X to Xa. Deficiency of factor IX results in HEMOPHILIA B (Christmas Disease).
