title: [The anticoagulant properties of the endothelium studied by the standard venous occlusion test].
abstract: Venous occlusion (VO) during which thrombin (Th) is postulated to be generated is routinely used for evaluation of fibrinolytic potential of endothelium (E). This study was performed to find out whether VO can also be used for assessment of anticoagulant function of E. VO was performed in 98 male patients (pts) with ischemic heart disease. Levels of protein C (PrC) which is related to Th binding by thrombomodulin and fibrinopeptide A (FpA)--a marker of presence of free Th--were determined together with some other factors of coagulation and fibrinolysis. Differences between pre- and postVO PrC levels fluctuated from -54.8% to +57.3%. According to reaction of PrC to VO pts were divided into 2 groups: 13 pts with increase or no change and 17 pts with decrease (consumption) of PrC. In pts without PrC consumption there was a significant increase in FpA. In pts with PrC consumption FpA was unchanged. In pts with PrC consumption exceeding its median value for this group (14%) PAI-1 antigen level fell significantly (-8.4 + 4%) during VO. Thus PrC consumption after VO indicates that TH is effectively removed from blood stream by endothelial factors. Absence of consumption of PrC is a sign of ineffective anticoagulant function of E. Increase in PrC level during VO in some pts may be due to its escape from tissue depot.
