title: Chloramine T impairs the receptor-mediated endocytosis of plasma kallikrein by the liver.
abstract: Treatment of rat plasma-kallikrein with chloramine T (which does not affect neither its amidolytic activity nor its Mr) impairs the hepatic clearance of the enzyme in a dose-related manner. Preperfusion of the liver with chloramine T before the addition of plasma-kallikrein also diminishes the hepatic clearance of the enzyme.
