Circulating anticoagulant in a family with prolonged bleeding time and factor VIII deficiency. 1977

M Diez-Ewald, and E C Lian, and R Nunez, and D Deykin, and D R Harkness

A circulating anticoagulant against factor VIII activity was demonstrated in the plasma of a boy from a family with both factor VIII deficiency and prolonged bleeding time. However, the factor VIII-related antigen, ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation activity, platelet retention in glass bead columns, platelet aggregation with adenosine 5'-diphosphate, collagen and epinephrine, and clot retraction among affected members were normal. The electrophoretic mobility of factor VIII-related antigen on crossed immunoelectrophoresis was normal. The inactivation of factor VIII activity by the inhibitor was time dependent and was nonlinear as the concentration of the inhibitor was increased. Immunotyping showed that the inhibitor was IgG with k light chains.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007122 Immunoelectrophoresis A technique that combines protein electrophoresis and double immunodiffusion. In this procedure proteins are first separated by gel electrophoresis (usually agarose), then made visible by immunodiffusion of specific antibodies. A distinct elliptical precipitin arc results for each protein detectable by the antisera.
D008297 Male Males

D010974 Platelet Aggregation The attachment of PLATELETS to one another. This clumping together can be induced by a number of agents (e.g., THROMBIN; COLLAGEN) and is part of the mechanism leading to the formation of a THROMBUS. Aggregation, Platelet

D005169 Factor VIII Factor VIII of blood coagulation. Antihemophilic factor that is part of the factor VIII/von Willebrand factor complex. Factor VIII is produced in the liver and acts in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. It serves as a cofactor in factor X activation and this action is markedly enhanced by small amounts of thrombin.
