The orthoamide derivatives 4 react with amidines 10 and guanidines 11 to give 4-dimethylaminopyrimidines 12. The 3-dimethylamino-pyrazoles 13a - c can be prepared from orthoamides 4 and hydrazine. The hydrazine derivative 14, whose constitution was established by crystal structure analysis, is obtained in low yield when hydrazine is added dropwise to a boiling solution of 4d in THF.Methyl- and phenylhydrazine, undergo reaction with the orthoamides 4a, c yielding mixtures of the isomeric pyrazoles 19 and 20. The reaction of 4c with acylhydrazines 21a - e affords the pyrazole 13b. The pyrazole 26 is produced in the reaction of 4a and acet-hydrazide according to this scheme, whereas 4a reacts with aromatic acid hydrazides 21c - e to give condensation products, which are presumably amidrazones 28. The 4,5-diaza-octatetraene derivative 30 results from the reaction of 4c with p-toluenesulfonylhydrazide. Ketene aminals 34a - c are the products of the reaction of the orthoamides 4b - d with 4,4-dimethylthiosemicarbazide 34, which cyclize on heating to give highmelting pyrazolethiones 35a - c. According to the crystal structure analysis of 35c the compounds have zwitterionic character and are associated via hydrogen bridges in the solid state.

SummaryUnfractionated heparin potentiates the anticoagulant action of activated protein C (APC) through several mechanisms, including the recently described enhancement of proteolytic inactivation of factor V. Possible anticoagulant synergism between APC and physiologic glycosaminoglycans, pharmacologic low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs), and other heparin derivatives was studied. Dermatan sulfate showed potent APC-enhancing effect. Commercial LMWHs showed differing abilities to promote APC activity, and the molecular weight of LMWHs correlated with enhancement of APC activity. Degree of sulfation of the glycosaminoglycans influenced APC enhancement. However, because dextran sulfates did not potentiate APC action, the presence of sulfate groups per se on a polysaccharide is not sufficient for APC enhancement. As previously for unfractionated heparin, APC anticoagulant activity was enhanced by glycosaminoglycans when factor V but not factor Va was the substrate. Thus, dermatan sulfate and LMWHs exhibit APC enhancing activity in vitro that could be of physiologic and pharmacologic significance.

SummaryLupus anticoagulants (LAs) are antibodies which interfere with phospholipid-dependent procoagulant reactions. Their clinical importance is due to their apparent association with an increased risk of thrombo-embolic disease. To date there have been few assays for quantifying the specific activity of these antibodies in vitro and this has hampered attempts to purify and characterize these antibodies. Methods for determining phospholipid-dependent generation of thrombin and factor Xa are described. Isolated IgG fractions from 7 of 9 patients with LAs were found to reproducibly inhibit enzyme generation in these assay systems, permitting quantitative expression of inhibitor activity. Different patterns of inhibitory activity, based on the relative inhibition of thrombin and factor Xa generation, were found, further substantiating the known heterogeneity of these antibodies. These systems may prove helpful in further purification and characterization of LAs.

SummaryProtein S (PS) is a vitamin K-dependent anticoagulant that acts as a cofactor to activated protein C (APC). To date PS has not been shown to possess anticoagulant activity in the absence of APC.In this study, we have developed monoclonal antibody to protein S and used to purify the protein to homogeneity from plasma. Affinity purified protein S (PSM), although identical to the conventionally purified protein as judged by SDS-PAGE, had significant anticoagulant activity in the absence of APC when measured in a factor Xa recalcification time. Using SDS-PAGE we have demonstrated that prothrombin cleavage by factor X awas inhibited in the presence of PSM. Kinetic analysis of the reaction revealed that PSM competitively inhibited factor X amediated cleavage of prothrombin. PS preincubated with the monoclonal antibody, acquired similar anticoagulant properties. These results suggest that the interaction of the monoclonal antibody with PS results in an alteration in the protein exposing sites that mediate the observed anticoagulant effect. Support that the protein was altered was derived from the observation that PSM was eight fold more sensitive to cleavage by thrombin and human neutrophil elastase than conventionally purified protein S.These observations suggest that PS can be modified in vitro to a protein with APC-independent anticoagulant activity and raise the possibility that a similar alteration could occur in vivo through the binding protein S to a cellular or plasma protein.

SummaryTissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) is a feed back inhibitor of the initial activation of the extrinsic pathway of coagulation. In humans, injection of heparin results in a 2-6 fold increase in plasma TFPI and recent studies suggest that TFPI may be important for the anticoagulant activity of heparin. Full length (FL) TFPI, but not recombinant two-domain (2D) TFPI, has a poly cationic C-terminus showing very strong heparin binding. Therefore, we have investigated if heparin affects the pharmacokinetics of TFPI with and without this C-terminus.FL-TFPI (608 U/kg) and 2D-TFPI (337 U/kg) were injected intravenously in rabbits with and without simultaneous intravenous injections of low molecular weight heparin (450 anti-XaU/kg).Heparin decreased the volume of distribution and the clearance of FL-TFPI by a factor 10-15, whereas the pharmacokinetics of 2D-TFPI were unaffected by heparin. When heparin was administered 2 h following TFPI the recovery of FL-TFPI was similar to that found in the group receiving the two compounds simultaneously, suggesting that the releasable pool of FL-TFPI is removed very slowly in the absence of circulating heparin.

SummaryThe anticoagulant activities of Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor (TFPI), heparin and hirudin were compared in intrinsic (APTT) and extrinsic (PT) activated clotting assays. In contrast to the thrombin inhibitor hirudin, heparin was 10 fold more potent in the APTT assay than in the PT assay, indicating that inhibition of intrinsic activation is important for the anticoagulant activity of heparin as measured in an APTT assay. TFPI was most potent in the PT assay and the effect of TFPI was most pronounced in the presence of other anticoagulants (heparin and hirudin). The activities of the two natural anticoagulants antithrombin III (ATIII) and TFPI were compared in a PT assay with very dilute tissue factor. In this assay system TFPI in normal plasma affected the clotting time more than ATIII in the plasma. However, when heparin was added ATIII was the major anticoagulant, but profound Prolongation of the clotting time was only seen when TFPI was also added. In an ATIII deficient plasma heparin did not augment the effect of TFPI, showing that the increased effect of TFPI in the presence of heparin is dependent on the anticoagulant activity of ATIII/heparin. The effect of TFPI at prolonged clotting times was also illustrated by the significant effect of blocking TFPI in the plasma from warfarin-treated patients. Thus TFPI is a major anticoagulant in normal plasma and the effect of TFPI is especially seen at prolonged clotting times.

SummaryAn anticoagulant occurring in 4 of 6 patients with SLE has been demonstrated by a sensitive assay utilizing an ammonium sulfate fraction of serum. The anticoagulant functions as an inhibitor of the activation of prothrombin. No species specificity was demonstrable. The inhibitor behaves clinically and chromatographically as an immunoglobulin, although an attempt to demonstrate directly the antibody nature of the inhibitor was not successful.A severe, apparently independent, decrease in the level of prothrombin was observed in the patient with hemorrhagic symptoms. In contrast to the anticoagulant activity, the low prothrombin has persisted during treatment.

SummaryMetabolism and kinetics of 3H-heparin were compared in intact and hepatectomized rats. Rats were divided into three groups: 1) intact rats with biliary fistulas and cystostomies 2) intact rats with only cystostomies and 3) hepatectomized rats with cystostomies. Radioactivity in blood, bile and urine besides anticoagulant activity in blood and urine were examined. In addition, column chromatography of urine was used to isolate possible metabolites. Seventy percent and 80% of the radioactive dose was found in the urine of intact rats at 24 hr and 48 hr. Close to 5% of the radioactivity was found in bile or rats with a biliary fistula after 48 hr. The APTT declined to near normal values at 1 hr whether rats had a biliary fistula or not. In contrast, only 25 % of the radioactivity could be excreted into the urine of hepatectomized rats in 24 hr; the APTT did not decline as fast and at 5 hr, it was still 100 seconds. Only one radioactive component could be isolated on chromatography from all urines of these animals and appears to be similar to the original heparin. Thus, the liver has an important role to play in regulating the anticoagulant effects and excretion of heparin.
