Thromboelastographic analysis of coagulation and fibrinolysis in rats with nephrotic syndrome induced by daunomycin.
Thromboelastography was carried out to examine the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems in experimental nephrotic rats following treatment with daunomycin. The daunomycin rats showed augmentation of ma on thromboelastography. The response to the plasminogen activator, urokinase, on thromboelastography differed between the daunomycin and control rats. Most daunomycin rats failed to reveal any fibrinolytic effect of urokinase on thromboelastography. Experimental nephrotic rats induced by daunomycin may thus possibly develop hypercoagulability and exhibit a depressed fibrinolytic activity.
