Background Fibrinogen is a central player in the blood coagulation cascade and one of the most abundant plasma proteins. This glycoprotein also triggers important events (e.g., cell spreading, the respiratory burst and degranulation) in neutrophil cells ...

A role for Syk-kinase in the control of the binding cycle of the β2 integrins (CD11/CD18) in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils [PDF]
A fine control of β2 integrin (CD11/CD18)-mediated firm adhesion of human neutrophils to the endothelial cell monolayer is required to allow ordered emigration.

Bioprinted Micro‐Clots for Kinetic Analysis of Endothelial Cell‐Mediated Fibrinolysis
This paper describes the development of a microscale model that quantifies the breakdown of fibrin by endothelial cells. The small size scale of this engineered system enables fibrin breakdown to be observed without the addition of external activators. This system could help in identifying compounds which both promote and hinder thrombosis.

Abstract Precise, reproducible quantitation of fibrinogen from plasma using thrombin to convert it to fibrin requires careful attention to the technics of clot formation and syneresis. The precision of the method outlined indicates a coefficient of variation of 1.2% with replicate samples.

Characterizing plasmin-induced lag phase and application of PDMS microfluidics to detection of fibrinolytic activity [PDF]
Physical trauma is responsible for over six million deaths annually, and of these roughly 40 percent result from acute traumatic coagulopathy (ATC) occurring in the first few hours of incidence. Patients who have developed ATC have significantly improved

Erythrocyte as a link between basic and clinical research [PDF]
© 2011 – IOS Press and the authorsWe review the major hemorheological experimental studies that show the erythrocyte aggregation as a link between basic and clinical research. The results of the clinical cross-sectional and longitudinal studies presented

Glucocorticoids Alter Bone Microvascular Barrier via MAPK/Connexin43 Mechanisms
Osteoporosis induced by Glucocorticoids (GCs) is a common complication of long‐term GC use in patients with inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, often leading to an increased fracture risk. A 3D bicellular endo‐osteo microfluidic platform is developed to explore pathogenic mechanisms underlying GCs‐induced osteoporosis, highlighting a novel MAPK ...

“No End Point Detected”: A Unique Coagulation Profile Unmasking Dysfibrinogenemia
Dysfibrinogenemia is a rare qualitative fibrinogen disorder that can present with bleeding, thrombosis, or both. We report a case of a young woman with first-trimester pregnancy loss and severe hemorrhage, whose coagulation tests reported “no end point ...

Reihs et al. present the development of a humanized, animal‐free synovial membrane model for osteoarthritis. Methods include 3D biochip cultures of human‐primary OA synoviocytes with matrix and serum surrogates. Results show replication of synovial architecture and increased Yap1 expression.

Fibrin D-dimer, markers of coagulation activation and the risk of major ischaemic heart disease in the Caerphilly Study [PDF]
We have previously reported that plasma fibrin D-dimer (a marker of turnover of cross-linked Fibrin) showed a strong and independent association with incident ischaemic heart disease (IHD) in the Caerphilly Study cohort of 1,998 men a-ed 49-65.
