Factor IX is activated in vivo by the tissue factor mechanism

KA Bauer, BL Kass, H ten Cate, JJ Hawiger and RD Rosenberg

Charles A. Dana Research Institute, Boston, MA.

Despite significant progress in elucidating the biochemistry of the hemostatic mechanism, the process of blood coagulation in vivo remains poorly understood. Factor IX is a vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein that can be activated by factor XIa or the factor VII-tissue factor complex in vitro. To investigate the role of these two pathways in factor IX activation in humans, we have developed a sensitive procedure for quantifying the peptide that is liberated with the generation of factor IXa. The antibody population used for the immunoassay was raised in rabbits and chromatographed on a factor IX-agarose immunoadsorbent to obtain antibody populations with minimal intrinsic reactivity toward factor IX. We determined that the mean level of the factor IX activation peptide (FIXP) in normal individuals under the age of 40 years was 203 pmol/L and that levels increased significantly with advancing age. The mean concentration of FIXP was markedly reduced to 22.7 pmol/L in nine patients with hereditary factor VII deficiency (factor VII coagulant activity less than 7%) but was not significantly different from normal controls in nine subjects with factor XI deficiency (factor XI coagulant activity less than 8%). These data indicate that factor IXa generation in vivo results mainly from the activity of the tissue factor mechanism rather than the contact system (factor XII, prekallikrein, high molecular-weight kininogen, factor XI). Our results may also help to explain the absence of a bleeding diathesis in many patients with deficiencies of the contact factors of coagulation.
