Title: Evaluation of the clotting defect in a factor XII-deficient kindred. Author: Chistolini A, Mazzucconi MG, Motta M, Solinas S, Tirindelli MC, Mariani G. Journal: Ric Clin Lab; 1985; 15(3):241-5. PubMed ID: 3853270. Abstract: A family with factor XII severe congenital deficiency is described. Factor XII activity and factor XII antigen were both undetectable in the propositus plasma; levels of FXII:C and FXII:Ag were intermediate in heterozygotes. Plasma prekallikrein activity was low in the propositus, whereas normal levels of antigen could be found, suggesting a defect of kallikrein activation due to factor XII deficiency.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
