Activation by silica of plasma FXII in a control and a PMM2-CDG patient. The hypoglycosylated form detected at basal conditions in the patient had no equivalence in the heavy chain of the activated form (FXIIa), which was similar to that observed in the control. We used different concentrations of silica (a) or dextran sulfate (DXS) (b). The inactivated (fully or hypoglycosylated) FXII and the heavy chain detected after activation are pointed by arrows
