Identification of a defective factor XI cross-reacting material in a factor XI-deficient patient. 1987

C Mannhalter, and P Hellstern, and E Deutsch

A homozygous factor XI-deficient girl, who appeared to be positive for cross-reacting material (CRM+) was studied for clarification. Factor XI antigen (F XI:Ag) was measured by radial immunodiffusion using monospecific, heterologous anti-factor XI antibodies. Factor XI coagulant activity (F XI:C) was determined in a modified activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) test. The ratio of F XI:C to F XI:Ag was 0.04 for the proposita, as compared with 0.7 to 0.74 in the other family members. In contrast, 12 normal individuals had ratios of F XI:C to F XI:Ag of 1.04 +/- 0.15. F XI esterolytic activity was clearly higher than F XI:C in the proband, but not in her relatives. Immunoblotting studies demonstrated F XI CRM in the patient's plasma. Chromatography on diethylaminoethanol (DEAE)-Sephadex at pH 8.4 led to an almost complete removal of F XI from the plasma. The defective F XI was not bound to a negatively charged kaolin surface due to an abnormal interaction with high-mol-wt kininogen (HMWK).

D010314 Partial Thromboplastin Time The time required for the appearance of FIBRIN strands following the mixing of PLASMA with phospholipid platelet substitute (e.g., crude cephalins, soybean phosphatides). It is a test of the intrinsic pathway (factors VIII, IX, XI, and XII) and the common pathway (fibrinogen, prothrombin, factors V and X) of BLOOD COAGULATION. It is used as a screening test and to monitor HEPARIN therapy.
