The method of D-dimer quantification in the human blood plasma has been developed using monoclonal antibodies 111-3b and II-4d. The method has been verified on the blood plasma of the patients with ischemic heart disease with and without stenocardia and with hypertension. The results showed that at ischemic heart disease with and without stenocardia and at hypertension the quantities of D-dimer in the blood plasma were generally less than the highest normal level 500 ng/ml (64.3%, 76.2% and 95%, correspondingly). The semiquantitative measurements of soluble fibrin levels in blood plasmas of the patients with ischemic heart disease and hypertension have been performed. It has been shown that the quantity of soluble fibrin at these diseases range greatly from < 0.03 mg/ml to 0.15 mg/ml. There was no correlation between the quantities of D-dimer and soluble fibrin in blood plasmas of the patients. Electrophoresis in PAAG with SDS showed that the soluble fibrin at these diseases had the mo- lecular mass of the fibrin (ogen). Thus the soluble fibrin in blood plasmas analysed consisted mainly of fibrin desAA oligomers (may be with fibrinogen incorporation) which are not stabilized by the factor XIIIa.

Background: Neutrophil Extracellular Traps can contribute to thrombosis via stabilization fibrin network, which is normally conducted by plasma transglutaminase, Factor XIII-A as part of coagulation cascade. The possible presence and activity of FXIII-A in neutrophils or during NETosis is unknown. Here, we investigated potential presence of FXIII-A in neutrophils and participation in NET-fibrinogen interaction.

: A low level of soluble coagulation factors after cardiac surgery may cause excessive bleeding and trigger clinical correction using prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC). According to the current guidelines, the trigger values for PCC administration are not defined. In the published algorithms, when driven by ROTEM, the triggers vary from 80 s to >100 s of coagulation time (CT) during an EXTEM test.

The recent SARS-CoV-2 pandemic underscores the need for rapid and accurate prediction of clinical thrombotic events. Here, we developed nanoengineered multichannel immunosensors for rapid detection of circulating biomarkers associated with thrombosis, including C-reactive protein (CRP), calprotectin, soluble platelet selectin (sP-selectin), and D-dimer. We fabricated the immunosensors using fiber laser engraving of carbon nanotubes and CO laser cutting of microfluidic channels, along with the electrochemical deposition of gold nanoparticles to conjugate with biomarker-specific aptamers and antibody.

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is a suspension of bioactive factors and chemokine enriched plasma. Platelets are a distinctive source of membrane bound and soluble proteins that are released upon their activation. The higher count of platelets renders PRP with an array of tissue regenerative abilities.
