SummaryThe presence of soluble fibrin complexes (SFC) measured by gel filtration of plasma on 4% agarose columns, fibrinogen heterogeneity on 3.5% SDS-polyacrylamide gels and the concentrations of several plasma proteins were evaluated in 39 patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and 19 matched control subjects. A small but significant increase of SFC was found in DM (p<0.01). On individual basis 51.2% of the patients had increased SFC (>M + 2 SD of the controls). Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the SFC showed no evidence of cross-linking or proteolysis. Plasma clots formed in the presence of EDTA and trasylol were analysed in SDS-polyacrylamide gels in a normal and two lower molecular weight fibrin bands (band I, II, III). The percentage of band I fibrinogen was in diabetics (65.3 ± 4.7%) lower than that of the controls (71.8 ± 4.5%) (p < 0.01). Fibrinogen levels, antithrombin III, α1-antitrypsin, α2-macroglobulin and plasminogen were significantly increased in DM. We suggest that in DM there is an enhancement of intravascular fibrin formation and accelerated fibrinogen degradation to lower molecular weight forms.

Abstract Deoxyribonucleases, Disc Electrophoresis, Lymphocytes Four groups of deoxyribonuclease activities from human lymphocytes have been characterized by deoxyribonuclease assay in DNA-containing polyacrylamide gels following their separation by disc-electrophoresis. All activities hydrolyse DNA endonucleolytically. One neutral deoxyribo­ nuclease found in the cytoplasmic fraction prefers native or UV-irradiated DNA over denatured DNA as substrate and is a 5′-monoester former. Two groups of acid deoxyribonuclease activities are detectable in the nuclear fraction. Both are 3′-monoester formers. One is as well active with denatured DNA as with native DNA, the other one shows the same activity with native and UV-irradiated DNA but lower activity with denatured DNA. An alkaline deoxyribonuclease activity, also localized in the nucleus, is a 5′ -monoester DNA as substrate.
