The Effect of Reagents Mimicking Oxidative Stress on Fibrinogen Function
Fibrinogen is one of the plasma proteins most susceptible to oxidative modification. It has been suggested that modification of fibrinogen may cause thrombotic/bleeding complications associated with many pathophysiological states of organism.

Variations on fibrinogen-erythrocyte interactions during cell aging. [PDF]
Erythrocyte hyperaggregation, a cardiovascular risk factor, is considered to be caused by an increase in plasma adhesion proteins, particularly fibrinogen.

Effect of L-NAME on the Synthesis of Plasma Fibrinogen in Mice
The effect of nitric oxide (NO) on plasma fibrinogen was investigated by treating mice with oral NG-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester (L-NAME), a non-selective NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor.

Migraine and vascular disease biomarkers: A population-based case-control study. [PDF]
Background The underpinnings of the migraine-stroke association remain uncertain, but endothelial activation is a potential mechanism. We evaluated the association of migraine and vascular disease biomarkers in a community-based population.

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.

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.

Young girl with congenital hypo-dysfibrogenemia presenting with an acute subdural haemorrhage
Fibrinogen plays a pivotal role in the coagulation cascade. Inherited fibrinogen disorders are a heterogenous group that includes lack or reduced fibrinogen levels or a qualitative disorder of fibrinogen, dysfibrinogenemia.

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.
