How can you use “fibrin” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The third candidate platelet GP gene controls GPIIb/IIIa (integrin α IIb β 3 ), a transmembranous heterodimer with several ligands, including fibrinogen, fibrin, fibronectin, and vWF.
Distal embolization during saphenous vein graft intervention is predominantly due to soft acellular atheromatous material typically found under the fibrous cap (cholesterol clefts, lipid-rich macrophages, and fibrin material) that occurs in >10% of interventions on vein grafts that are more than three years old [ 9].
Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) was defined as a positive D-dimer or elevated fibrin degradation products plus a falling platelet count of 25% of less of baseline, and elevation of either prothrombin time or partial prothrombin time, or clinical evidence of bleeding.
A number of in vitro model systems have thus been developed to study EC activation that employs either one or more combinations of ECM molecules including fibrin, fibronectin, collagens, laminins, and Matrigel ®matrices together with PMA and FGF [ 7 8 9 ] . When placed in a 3D type I collagen matrix and stimulated with PMA, VEGF, or bFGF, ECs undergo rapid morphological changes and differentiate into capillary-like tubular networks.
Fibronectin contains three types of homology sequences, I-III; type I sequences bind heparin, Staphylococcus aureus, fibrin, and cell surfaces, type II sequences bind collagen and gelatin, and type III sequences bind DNA, cell surfaces, heparin, and fibulin-1 [ 40 43 ] . Fibulin-1 interacts with fibronectin through a heparin-binding region in type III 13 repeat; the binding of fibulin-1 to this site is independent of the binding of heparin as addition of exogenous heparin does not inhibit fibulin-1 binding to fibronectin [ 40 ] . The fibronectin-binding site in fibulin-1 is located in EGF-like modules 5 and 6 [ 44 ] ; the binding of fibulin-1 to fibronectin is a heterotypic interaction in which an EGF-like module binds to a non EGF-like domain (the type III 13 fibronectin repeat) [ 40 ] .
