General description
Fibrin is produced from cross-linking of fibrinogen by thrombin. Fibrinogen is made up of two monomers each containing three polypeptide chains. Fibrinogen is a major plasma protein.
Application
Fibrin from human plasma has been used:
- for in vitro cleavage of fibrinogen and fibrin
- as a reference for true component analysis (TCA) and principal component analysis (PCA) of Raman spectra
- as a reference in Raman spectroscopy to study the binding mechanisms and the binding efficiency of the different polyoxometalates (POMs)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Fibrin acts as an important bio-polymer in the primary blood clotting process. It creates a scaffold for infiltrating cells during tissue repair. Fibrin is widely used as a tissue sealant for tissue regeneration applications as it enables the formation of a biocompatible physical structure. It is also used in delivery systems for cells and bioactive molecules. The fibrin matrix resembles the native pancreas and can serve as a scaffold material for islet transplantation. Fibrin has been used in studies to obtain fibrin-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). These mAbs may be used to determine their role in fibrin polymerization and use in fibrin quantification in blood plasma.
Preparation Note
Prepared by clotting fibrinogen to yield a crosslinked fibrin
