Abstract
α2 antiplasmin has been measured in the plasma of 20 patients with a glomerularproteinuria. Significantly lower levels were found as compared to eight controls. The unconcentrated urine was also examined and α2 antiplasmin antigen was demonstrated in seven patients but in none of the controls. Deficiency of antithrombin III due to glomerular leak has been suggested as a major cause for tendency for venous thrombosis in these patients.Acquired α2 antiplasmin deficiency also due to renal loss may tend to counterbalance this effect. Furthermore, the presence of this potent plasmin inhibitor in the urine in patients with nephrotic syndrome may be involved in other pathological mechanisms involving fibrinolysis in the renal tract.
