Fibrinogen-fibrin degradation products.
The identification of the molecular structure of fibrinogen has given a better understanding of many clinical conditions associated with abnormalities of fibrinogen. Proteolysis of fibrinogen or fibrin by its natural lytic enzyme, plasmin, leads to the formation of degradation products which are of great importance in the laboratory diagnosis of many pathological conditions. The biochemical and...
متن کاملDetection of fibrinogen-fibrin degradation products by counterelectrophoresis.
Counterelectrophoresis using a discontinuous buffer system permits detection of fibrinogen-fibrin degradation products (FDP) under a variety of clinical circumstances. The method is sensitive, reliable, and is easily performed using conventional equipment in any clinical laboratory assuming the responsibility for assaying fibrinogen-fibrin degradation products.
متن کاملFibrin-fibrinogen degradation products in cerebrospinal fluid.
An increase in low molecular weight fibrin-fibrinogen degradation products (FDP) was demonstrated in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from 17 of 18 patients with bacterial or viral meningitis compared with 29 patients without meningitis. The CSF also showed an increase in coagulation proteins of molecular weight less than 90000 (factors VII, IX, and plasminogen) but did not contain fibrinogen (MW 3400...
متن کاملSeverity of peripheral atherosclerosis is associated with fibrinogen and degradation of cross-linked fibrin.
Immunohistochemical studies of human atherosclerotic lesions have demonstrated the occurrence of fibrin deposition and its degradation in the arterial wall. We studied fibrinogen, the generation of thrombin, and the degradation of fibrin in 40 patients with stable peripheral arterial occlusive disease of varying severity, as assessed by the ankle/brachial pressure index and duplex ultrasonograp...
متن کاملBinding and degradation of fibrinogen by Bacteroides fragilis and characterization of a 54 kDa fibrinogen-binding protein.
Bacteroides fragilis is a bacterium that resides in the normal human gastro-intestinal tract; however, it is also the most commonly isolated Gram-negative obligate anaerobe from human clinical infections, such as intra-abdominal abscesses, and the most common cause of anaerobic bacteraemia. Abscess formation is important in bacterial containment, limiting dissemination of infection and bacterae...
