SummaryVarious materials and conditions have been investigated for their effect on Hageman factor activation. Fatty acid soaps, purified phospholipids, ellagic acid, platelets, and freezing and thawing were among those studied.Under certain circumstances XIIa activity disappeared spontaneously; the factors affecting the kinetics of this “decay” have been evaluated. Successful regeneration of this “decayed” XII a has been achieved. On the basis of these observations, it is postulated that during its “decay”, XIIa reverts to XII by spontaneous molecular refolding.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
