A cationic protein fraction from rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocyte lysosomes has been shown to exert a potent anticoagulant effect on human blood in vitro. The anticoagulant activity is detectable in the whole blood clotting time, the recalcification time of platelet-rich plasma, the prothrombin time, the partial thromboplastin time, and the thromboplastin generation test. The lysosomal cationic proteins do not inhibit any of the known specific procoagulants. They appear to inhibit clotting by blocking the formation of intrinsic thromboplastin possibly by interfering with the role of phospholipids in the reaction involving Factors V and X and calcium.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
