The Additive Effect of Low Molecular Weight Heparins on Thrombin Inhibition by Dermatan Sulfate

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism by which the anticoagulant activity of dermatan sulfate (DS) is increased by low molecular weight heparin (LMWH). In platelet poor plasma, LMWH enhances the effect of DS on thrombin (IIa) inhibition as determined by thrombin clotting times and with a chromogenic substrate assay. Analysis of the results of the chromogenic assays using either the algebraic fractional or the graphic isobole …
