Entry term(s) factor 12A
factor XII activado
factor XIIa de la coagulación
factor doce A
Scope note: Forma activada del factor XII. En el primer paso de la vía intrínseca de la coagulación sanguínea, la calicreína (con QUININÓGENO DE ALTO PESO MOLECULAR como cofactor) segmenta el factor XII y forma el factor XIIa. Entonces este es escindido de nuevo por la calicreína, la plasmina y la tripsina, dando lugar a fragmentos menores del factor XII (fragmentos del factor de Hageman). Estos fragmentos aumentan la actividad de la precalicreína a calicreína, pero disminuyen la actividad procoagulante del factor XII.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D015956
Scope note: Activated form of factor XII. In the initial event in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation, kallikrein (with cofactor HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT KININOGEN) cleaves factor XII to XIIa. Factor XIIa is then further cleaved by kallikrein, plasmin, and trypsin to yield smaller factor XII fragments (Hageman-Factor fragments). These fragments increase the activity of prekallikrein to kallikrein but decrease the procoagulant activity of factor XII.
