[In vitro effect of Iopamidol on coagulation, fibrinolysis and complement system (author's transl)]. 1981

B Schulze, and H K Beyer

Experiments on the effect of iopamidol on coagulation, fibrinolysis and complement system by in vitro standard tests were undertaken. No effect on thrombin time and thrombincoagulase time were found in clinically relevant concentration range. In contrast to classical triiodinated contrast media indications of inhibition of fibrin polymerization could only be found at large doses of iopamidol. No generation of fibrinolytic split products as indication of activation of fibrinolysis were found. Crossed immunoelectrophoresis at different concentrations could not detect split products of the complement protein C3.

D003165	Complement System Proteins	Serum glycoproteins participating in the host defense mechanism of COMPLEMENT ACTIVATION that creates the COMPLEMENT MEMBRANE ATTACK COMPLEX. Included are glycoproteins in the various pathways of complement activation (CLASSICAL COMPLEMENT PATHWAY; ALTERNATIVE COMPLEMENT PATHWAY; and LECTIN COMPLEMENT PATHWAY).

D003176	Complement C3	A glycoprotein that is central in both the classical and the alternative pathway of COMPLEMENT ACTIVATION. C3 can be cleaved into COMPLEMENT C3A and COMPLEMENT C3B, spontaneously at low level or by C3 CONVERTASE at high level. The smaller fragment C3a is an ANAPHYLATOXIN and mediator of local inflammatory process. The larger fragment C3b binds with C3 convertase to form C5 convertase.

D013918	Thrombin Time	Clotting time of PLASMA mixed with a THROMBIN solution. It is a measure of the conversion of FIBRINOGEN to FIBRIN, which is prolonged by AFIBRINOGENEMIA, abnormal fibrinogen, or the presence of inhibitory substances, e.g., fibrin-fibrinogen degradation products, or HEPARIN. BATROXOBIN, a thrombin-like enzyme unaffected by the presence of heparin, may be used in place of thrombin.
