Clot retraction facilitates clot lysis.
Platelet facilitation of clot lysis was studied using the dilute clot lysis assay, a standardized assay for fibrinolysis shown to correlate with the development of postoperative deep vein thrombosis. Clots prepared from dilute platelet poor plasma showed prolonged clot lysis when compared with clots prepared in a similar fashion from dilute platelet rich plasma. Since in the presence of platele...
متن کاملPlatelet-targeted fibrinolysis enhances clot lysis and inhibits platelet aggregation.
BACKGROUND Although plasminogen activator therapy has been shown to reduce mortality in patients with severe myocardial infarction, several problems fuel the search for more potent and specific thrombolytic agents. METHODS AND RESULTS To explore the effect of plasminogen activator targeting to platelets, we covalently linked urokinase that had been modified with N-succinimidyl-3-(2-pyridyldit...
متن کاملBiological variation in tPA-induced plasma clot lysis time.
Hypofibrinolysis is a risk factor for venous and arterial thrombosis, and can be assessed by using a turbidimetric tPA-induced clot lysis time (CLT) assay. Biological variation in clot lysis time may affect the interpretation and usefulness of CLT as a risk factor for thrombosis. Sufficient information about assay variation and biological variation in CLT is not yet available. Thus, this study ...
متن کاملKinetics of fibrin clot lysis.
The principles relating the lysis times of fibrin clots to their contents of fibrin, plasminogen and plasminogen-activator were investigated. Mathematical considerations suggested that the square of the lysis time should correlate linearly with the fibrin content, and inversely with the activator and the plasminogen contents of the system. Experimental studies, during which these parameters wer...
متن کاملA new device for measurement of fibrin clot lysis: application to the Euglobulin Clot Lysis Time
BACKGROUND Determination of clot lysis times on whole blood, diluted whole blood, plasma or plasma fraction has been used for many years to assess the overall activity of the fibrinolytic system. We designed a completely computerised semi-automatic 8-channel device for measurement and determination of fibrin clot lysis. The lysis time is evaluated by a mathematical analysis of the lysis curve a...
