Endogenous fibrinolysis facilitates clot retraction in vivo.
Clot retraction refers to the process whereby activated platelets transduce contractile forces onto the fibrin network of a thrombus, which over time increases clot density and decreases clot size.

Current Practice Regarding Bleeding Disorders of Unknown Cause in the Netherlands: A National Survey
ABSTRACT Introduction About 40%–70% of persons with a clinically relevant bleeding tendency who are referred to haemostasis experts are classified as having a ‘bleeding disorder of unknown cause’ (BDUC) as no biological entity can be found after extensive laboratory testing.

Internal fibrinolysis of fibrin clots is driven by pore expansion
Blood clots, which are composed of blood cells and a stabilizing mesh of fibrin fibers, are critical in cessation of bleeding following injury. However, their action is transient and after performing their physiological function they must be resolved ...

ABSTRACT Introduction The plasminogen activating (PA) system has a multitude of functions such as wound healing, proteolytic activity, collagen degradation and cell growth, and the role of the urokinase plasminogen activator/urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPA/uPAR) system has been studied in many disease states.

Global fibrinolysis assays detect the fibrinolysis time of clot dissolution using tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA). Two such assays, clot-fibrinolysis waveform analysis (CFWA) and global fibrinolysis capacity (GFC) assay, were recently developed ...

Fibrinolysis can be used to improve fluid drainage in pleural infection. Treatment with either urokinase or tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) in association with DNAse via a chest tube has been effective at reducing the need for surgery.

Despite the common use of thrombolytic drugs, especially in stroke treatment, there are many conflicting studies on factors affecting fibrinolysis. Because of the complexity of the fibrinolytic system, mathematical models closely tied with experiments ...

Abstract Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are widely prescribed to prevent and treat venous and arterial thromboembolism, supported by published evidence, and are preferred over warfarin in many guidelines. Although the risk of major bleeding, in particular intracranial haemorrhage (ICH), is decreased with DOACs, gastrointestinal bleeding is ...

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is the most frequent coagulation disorder associated with metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma. However, DIC with enhanced fibrinolysis as an initial presentation of prostate cancer is extremely rare.
