Hypercoagulable conditions may determine a hypofibrinolytic state by increasing the activation of thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI). Factor (F)IX-Padua is a mutated FIX with an eight-fold increased clotting activity and associates with a higher venous thrombotic risk. We evaluated the influence of FIX-Padua on TAFI-mediated regulation of fibrinolysis. A subject hemizygous for FIX-Padua, two...
