Scientists at the University of Osaka have developed a novel hydrogel that enables the efficient, three-dimensional (3D) ...

Fibrin hydrogel, an oft-used two-dimensional scaffold for in vitro cell culture, was recently functionalized to grow human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) in three dimensions. This advance ...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the novel coronavirus, causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is a multisystem disease affecting the respiratory tract. Data ...

Scientists are turning venom, radioisotopes, engineered proteins, and AI into powerful new tools against cancer. From ...

New research reveals that fibrin, a key component of blood clots, may be the secret culprit behind the devastating neurological and inflammatory aftermath of the virus, including long COVID. From ...

Fibrin formation is pivotal in hemostasis, serving as a temporary barrier to blood loss following vascular injury, while in thrombosis this process is involved in thrombus progression, stability, and ...

Fibrin degradation products (FDP) are substances that remain in your bloodstream after your body dissolves a blood clot. Your fibrinolytic (clot-busting) system manages and regulates clot dissolving.

A group of researchers from the United States discovered that the spike glycoprotein of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can induce the formation of highly inflammatory ...

Thrombin mediates fibrin polymerization and is known to be involved in acute and chronic inflammatory processes in vivo. Flick et al. have used various genetically engineered mouse models to study the ...
