Influence of fibrinogen degradation products (FDP) on the ATPase activity in the rat heart.
Influence of fibrinogen degradation products (FDP) on the ATPase activity in the rat heart. Acta Physiol. Pol., 1978, 29 (2): 185--187. The influence of dialysable fibrinogen degradation products (FDP) on the ATPase activity was studied. It was found that FDP augment the Mg(2+)-- dependent ATPase and slightly decrease the (Na+--K+) dependent ATPase in the rat heart. It is concluded that biological activity of examined peptides depend on other mechanisms than the direct effect on ATPase in the heart.
