Fibrinogen is a key coagulation protein, playing a critical role in hemostasis. It is the first factor to decrease to critical levels during bleeding. Hypofibrinogenemia is an important risk factor for bleeding in clinical settings, including pediatric ...

Fibrinogen is the major plasma protein coagulation factor. Low plasma fibrinogen concentrations are therefore associated with an increased risk of bleeding due to impaired primary and secondary haemostasis. Fibrinogen is a classical positive acute-phase reactant protein and is an independent predictor of coronary heart disease events.

Hypochlorite-induced aggregation of fibrinogen underlies a novel antioxidant role in blood plasma
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 ...

The Conversion of Fibrinogen to Fibrin: Recombinant Fibrinogen Typifies Plasma Fibrinogen [PDF]
AbstractPlasma fibrinogen is a mixture of multiple molecular forms arising mainly through alternative mRNA processing and subsequent posttranslational modification. Recombinant fibrinogen is synthesized without alternative mRNA processing in a cultured cell system that may generate novel posttranslational modifications.

Fibrinogen replacement therapy for congenital fibrinogen deficiency [PDF]
This review of published studies was conducted to derive data on patients with congenital fibrinogen deficiency (CFD), including dosing of fibrinogen replacement therapy, outcome, and adverse events, either temporally related or distant to fibrinogen replacement, in order to assist clinicians in developing treatment plans for patients with CFD.

The use of fibrinogen concentrate for the management of trauma-related bleeding. A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Haemorrhage following injury is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The role of fibrinogen concentrate in trauma-induced coagulopathy has been the object of intense research in the last 10 years and has been systematically analysed in ...

Fibrinogen interaction with complement C3: a potential therapeutic target to reduce thrombosis risk
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 ...

Canine reference intervals for coagulation markers using the STA Satellite and the STA-R Evolution analyzers [PDF]
The aim of the current study was to determine canine reference intervals for prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen, and antithrombin (AT) according to international recommendations. The STA Satellite coefficients

DNA methylation profiling of the fibrinogen gene landscape in human cells and during mouse and zebrafish development. [PDF]
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 ...
