RESUMO
The inhibition of the adhesion of neutrophils to fibronectin by the fragments of the main galacturonan chain of the following pectins was demonstrated: comaruman from the marsh cinquefoil Comarum polustre, bergenan from the Siberian tea Bergenia crassifolia, lemnan from the duckweed Lemna minor, zosteran from the seagrass Zostera marina, and citrus pectin. The parent pectins, except for comaruman, did not affect the cell adhesion. Galacturonans prepared from the starting pectins by acidic hydrolysis were shown to reduce the neutrophil adhesion stimulated by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (1.625 microM) and dithiothreitol (0.5 mM) at a concentration of 50-200 microg/ml. The presence of carbohydrate chains with molecular masses higher than 300, from 100 to 300, and from 50 to 100 kDa in the galacturonan fractions was proved by membrane ultrafiltration.

Three active-site-acylated derivatives of the activator plasmin-streptokinase complex have been synthesized: n-anisoyl-, n-trans-(N,N,N-trimethylamino)-cinnamoyl- and n-guanidine-benzoyl-plasmin-streptokinase. Their diacylation rate constants were 4.2 x 10(-4), 2.0 x 10(-4) and 0.6 x 10(-4) s-1, respectively. Kinetics of lysis of fibrin clots, containing plasminogen or plasminogen and alpha 2-antiplasmin, by acylplasmin, by a free activator complex and by two acylated activator complexes has been studied. It is shown that in the presence of zymogen and inhibitor the effect of acylactivator, as a fibrinolytic, is 163 times more effective than that of acylenzyme and the fibrinolytic response increases with the doze of acylactivator. The rate of fibrinolysis by a free plasmin-streptokinase complex was higher without the inhibitor than that of fibrinolysis by its acylated derivatives; fibrinolytic action of acylactivators was more effective in the presence of the inhibitor.

Kinetics of lysis of fibrin clots from the human, guinea pig, rat and rabbit blood plasma by two active-site-acylated derivatives of the activator plasmin-streptokinase complex with different reaction rate constants has been studied in vitro. It is found that lysis of blood plasma clots in guinea pig is most similar to that of man. Acyl activator dose being increased, the lysis of a plasma clot in guinea pig is accelerated. Two acyl activators exhibit higher fibrinolytic-efficiency as compared to a free activator. Experiments carried out in vivo on guinea pigs with thrombosis show that acyl activators, in contrast to nonmodified plasmin-streptokinase complex induce the less system activation of fibrinolysis and the less fibrinogenolysis.

Kinetics of fibrinolysis by plasmin and plasmin streptokinase complex have been studied using fibrin gels formed from purified fibrin and human blood plasma. The gels were placed into buffer or blood plasma. The contributions of plasminogen and alpha 2-antiplasmin present or absent in both phases to the kinetics of fibrinolysis were quantitatively estimated. In the complex catalyzed fibrinolysis, plasminogen activation reaction dominated whereas in plasmin-catalyzed fibrinolysis, the inhibitor involved reaction, suppressing the process, prevailed.

A simple and sensitive method has been developed to assess the fibrinolytic activity of plasmin from the change in the column height of fibrin gel. Two conditions were used: 1) 37 degrees C and 16 h incubation at plasmin concentrations of 0.5-50 micrograms/ml and 2) 25 degrees C and 1-2.5 h incubation at plasmin concentrations of 50-1000 micrograms/ml. The method permits to observe the kinetics of fibrinolysis at plasmin concentrations higher that 10 micrograms/ml. The results have shown that the method is applicable for quantitation of plasminogen in human plasma. The method is precise and well reproducible.

The participation of plasmin active site in the trigger's mechanisms of the compensatory reaction of haemostasis system on this enzyme was studied in the experiments on white rats and rabbits using intravenous injection and perfusion of the humorally isolated carotid sinus are with intact innervation. Native enzyme, the enzyme with reversibly (acylated plasmin) and irreversibly (diisopropylphosphoryl plasmin) blocked active site were used. It was ascertained that the development of the compensatory reaction of haemostasis system on plasmin, manifested by hypercoagulation and depression of fibrinolysis, is conditioned by the proteolytic activation of the vascular wall receptors.

In the experiments on guinea-pigs with venous thrombosis there were studied the fibrin- and thrombolytic effects of streptokinase, the plasmin-streptokinase complex and the acylated derivatives of the complex with various rates of reactivation. It was established that the acylated derivatives of the plasmin-streptokinase complex possess greater stability in the blood flow and lead to more prolonged stimulation of fibrinolysis at less magnitude of its systemic activation. Due to this the acylated derivatives of the plasmin-streptokinase complex produce less pronounced fibrinogenolysis. In connection with a high affinity to fibrin their thrombolytic action does not depend on the systemic activation of fibrinolysis.
