General description

Thrombin, a sodium-activated type II enzyme, comprises two anion binding exosites, ABE-I and ABE-II. This serine protease enzyme is synthesized from zymogen prothrombin (factor II) in the liver.

Application

Thrombin, Human Plasma has been used:
  • as a component of endothelial growth medium (EGM) media for the transplantation and reisolation of Kaposi′s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-human endothelial cell line (KSHV-HuARLT) cells from mice
  • for the fabrication of fibrin gels
  • as a component of EGM media for viral copy number analysis of KSHV-HuARLT cells and matrigel implant

Biochem/physiol Actions

Thrombin cleaves and converts fibrinogen into fibrin. It then activates factors V, VIII, XI, and XIII. Thrombin stimulates platelet activation and stabilizes the fibrin polymers. It elicits a vital role in the last stages of the blood coagulation cascade.

Warning

Toxicity: Harmful (C)

Unit Definition

One unit is determined by comparison with a standard curve prepared using the Bureau of Biologics standard thrombin.

Physical form

Lyophilized from 200 mM NaCl, 50 mM citrate buffer, 0.1% PEG-8000, pH 6.5. Contains BSA as a stabilizer.

Preparation Note

Prepared from plasma that has been shown by certified tests to be negative for HBsAg and for antibodies to HIV and HCV.

Reconstitution

Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-70°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 2 months at -70°C.

Analysis Note

Complete activation from homogeneous prothrombin by SDS-PAGE

Thrombin is a common hemostatic drug used in surgical practice for over 100 years because of its simplicity and efficacy. Thrombin converts fibrinogen to fibrin, activates platelets, and induces vascular contraction. It is available in multiple forms, including human thrombin

Although prothrombin is one of the most widely studied enzymes in biology, the role of the thrombin A-chain has been neglected in comparison to the other domains. This paper summarizes the current data on the prothrombin catalytic domain A-chain region

Fibrin has been used clinically for wound coverings, surgical glues, and cell delivery because of its affordability, cytocompatibility, and ability to modulate angiogenesis and inflammation. However, its rapid degradation rate has limited its usefulness as a scaffold for 3D cell
