prekallikrein : ウィキペディア英語版 | prekallikrein Prekallikrein (PK), also known as ''Fletcher factor'', is an 85,000 Mr serine protease that complexes with high-molecular-weight kininogen. PK is the precursor of plasma kallikrein, which is a serine protease that activates kinins. PK is cleaved to produce kallikrein by activated Factor XII (Hageman factor). == Prekallikrein deficiency ==
Hereditary deficiencies in PK are very rare. They can cause a prolonged APTT, which can be corrected by incubation of the patient’s plasma. Deficiencies in PK can also be acquired due to some disease states, such as angioedema, infection, DIC, and sickle-cell disease.〔 Although most cases of prekallikrein deficiency are asymptomatic, a few reports link severe prekallikrein deficiency with thrombotic phenomena and recurrent pregnancy loss. More recently, a case of prekallikrein deficiency was shown to be associated with severe mucosal bleeding.
