In vitro evaluation of decontamination effects on mechanical properties of fibrin membrane
Background: Tissue engineering has been investigated as a potential method for healing traumatized tissues. Biomaterials are material devices or implants used to repair or replace native body tissues and organs. The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of decontamination methods on biological/mechanical properties and degradation/adhesion test of the platelet‑-rich fibrin (PRF) m...
متن کاملUpdate on antithrombin I (fibrin).
Antithrombin I (fibrin) is an important inhibitor of thrombin generation that functions by sequestering thrombin in the forming fibrin clot, and also by reducing the catalytic activity of fibrinbound thrombin. Thrombin binding to fibrin takes place at two classes of non-substrate sites: 1) in the fibrin E domain (two per molecule) through interaction with thrombin exosite 1; 2) at a single site...
متن کاملEffects of alterations of glomerular fibrin deposition on renal inflammation in rats at different age stages.
Recent data indicated that aging accelerated glomerular fibrin deposition induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice. Our hypothesis was that aging may exacerbate glomerular inflammatory responses induced by glomerular fibrin deposition. Both young and aged rats with glomerular fibrin deposition induced by LPS were treated with tranexamic acid (TA) and TA plus urokinase (UK). Infiltrating infl...
متن کاملLocalization of a fibrin polymerization site.
The formation of a fibrin clot is initiated after the proteolytic cleavage of fibrinogen by thrombin. The enzyme removes fibrinopeptides A and B and generates fibrin monomer which spontaneously polymerizes. Polymerization appears to occur though the interaction of complementary binding sites on the NH2-terminal and COOH-terminal (Fragment D) regions of the molecule. A peptide has been isolated ...
متن کاملS-Nitrosoglutathione Acts as a Small Molecule Modulator of Human Fibrin Clot Architecture
BACKGROUND Altered fibrin clot architecture is increasingly associated with cardiovascular diseases; yet, little is known about how fibrin networks are affected by small molecules that alter fibrinogen structure. Based on previous evidence that S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) alters fibrinogen secondary structure and fibrin polymerization kinetics, we hypothesized that GSNO would alter fibrin micro...
