Hypochlorite-induced aggregation of fibrinogen underlies a novel antioxidant role in blood plasma
Redox Biology, 2021 Fibrinogen, a major constituent of blood plasma, is highly susceptible to reaction with biological oxidants. It has been proposed that fibrinogen plays a role in antioxidant defence, but oxidation of fibrinogen is also known to disrupt normal blood ...

Fibrinogen interaction with complement C3: a potential therapeutic target to reduce thrombosis risk
Haematologica, 2020 Complement C3 binds fibrinogen and compromises fibrin clot lysis thereby enhancing thrombosis risk. We investigated the role of fibrinogen-C3 interaction as a novel therapeutic target to reduce thrombosis risk by analysing: i) consistency in the ...

Detection of surface-adsorbed (lipo)proteins by means of a two-step enzyme-immunoassay: a study on the Vroman effect [PDF]
, 1990 In view of reports on the involvement of high-molecular-weight (HMW) kininogen and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the Vroman effect, we studied the adsorption of fibrinogen, HMW kininogen, HDL and several other proteins from pooled human plasma and ...

DNA methylation profiling of the fibrinogen gene landscape in human cells and during mouse and zebrafish development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The fibrinogen genes FGA, FGB and FGG show coordinated expression in hepatocytes. Understanding the underlying transcriptional regulation may elucidate how their tissue-specific expression is maintained and explain the high variability in fibrinogen ...
