Chromogenic methods in coagulation diagnostics
Chromogene Methoden der GerinnungsdiagnostikPublication History
Publication Date:
27 December 2017 (online)
Zusammenfassung
Chromogene Peptidsubstrate wurden vor mehr als 30 Jahren entwickelt. Obgleich sich die Anwendung chromogener Substratmethoden bei der Gerinnungs- und Fibrinolyse-Diagnostik nicht so rasch etablierte, wie anfangs angenommen, haben sich diese Methoden inzwischen zur Bestimmung verschiedener Analyte (z. B. Antithrombin, F.VIII, Protein C, Plasminogen, Plasmininhibitor, Heparine und Pentasaccharide) einen festen Platz erobert. Das Aufkommen direkter Thrombin- und Faktor-Xa-Inhibitoren veranlasste zur Entwicklung neuer, spezifischer chromogener Methoden. Diese können Eingang in die Routineanwendung finden, wenn sich die neuen Wirkstoffe als valider Ersatz für Kumarinderivate erweisen. Auch für andere Analyte wurde eine Vielzahl chromogener Untersuchungsmethoden entwickelt. Das aktuelle Interesse an globalen chromogenen Methoden für die Thrombinbildung und den Protein-C-Weg kann sich als klinisch relevant herausstellen und damit Eingang in die Routineanwendung finden.
Summary
Chromogenic peptide substrates were developed more than 30 years ago. Although the use of chromogenic substrate methods in coagulation and fibrinolysis diagnostics was not as rapidly implemented as initially believed, they are now well established for several analytes such as antithrombin, FVIII, protein C, plasminogen, plasmin inhibitor, heparins, and pentasaccharides.
The advent of direct thrombin and factor Xa inhibitors has stimulated the development of new, specific chromogenic methods and these may find their way into routine use if these new drug candidates will prove to be valid replacements for coumarin derivatives. A large number of chromogenic research methods for other analytes were developed, too. The current interest in global chromogenic methods for thrombin generation and the protein C pathway may turn out as clinically important and thus enter into routine use.
