A modern data review on the importance of fibrinolysis system is given. A considerable success has been scored during the study of molecular parameters of fibrinolysis system: the plasminogen, plasmin, its inhibitors, plasminogen activators and the mechanism of activation system have been characterized. The entrance of A, K, C, P and PP vitamins has been established to be necessary for the normal functioning of the fibrinolysis system; the dependence of the blood fibrinolytic activity upon the initial plasminogen content and concentration of its activators in blood has been revealed. The plasminogen activator depletion in tissues has been shown to be one of the reasons of some pathological states development, especially at cardiovascular diseases. The increase of fibrinolysis level by the active fibrinolytic ferment injection in blood has a medical effect at thrombosis. The ferment fibrinolysin received in the laboratory is successfully used in clinical practice. Some other activators of fibrinolytic system: tricholysine and longolytin from the culture of saprophyte fungi, plasminogen activator from the pig heart and the cells culture of the calf kidney have been received and are being studied.

Objective: Fibrinolysis is generally considered an alternative to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) when PCI is not immediately feasible. The COVID-19 pandemic may have impacted the timeliness of PCI. We sought to compare the rate of fibrinolysis use before vs.

Plasmin, the final product of fibrinolysis, is a broad-spectrum serine protease that degrades extracellular matrix (ECM) components, a function exploited by multiple pathogens for dissemination purposes. The trematode Fasciola hepatica is the leading cause of fasciolosis, a major disease of livestock and an emerging zoonosis in humans. Infection success depends on the ability of F.

envenomings are a public health problem in West Africa, leading to bleeding and hypocoagulability. The aim of this study was to assess the hemostasis disorders associated with envenoming. Envenomed patients with an abnormal whole blood clotting test (WBCT) were prospectively included at Tanguiéta, Benin.

Background: Post-surgical tendon adhesion formation is a frequent clinical complication with limited treatment options. The aim of this study is to investigate safety and efficacy of orally administration of crocin in attenuating post-operative tendon-sheath adhesion bands in an Achilles tendon rat model.

Methods: Structural, mechanical, histological, and biochemical properties of Achilles tendons were analyzed in the presence and absence of crocin.

Trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) is characterized by dynamic changes in fibrinolysis, which can significantly impact patient outcomes. These changes typically manifest in two phases: hyperfibrinolysis followed by fibrinolysis suppression. In the early stages of TIC, there is often an overwhelming release of tissue plasminogen activator, which leads to excessive fibrinolysis.
