MATERIALS AND METHODS Hep G2 human hepatoma cells were cultivated in RPM1 1640
supplemented with 10% foetal calf serum (FCS, Gibco), glutamine and pyruvate (1mM at …

There is increasing clinical and laboratory interest in the measurement of both plasma
fibrinogen and fibrin D-dimer to predict arterial thrombotic events, such as cardiovascular …

Fibrinogen levels are considered a useful indicator in several pathological conditions and
recent epidemiological studies have indicated a relationship between fibrinogen levels and …

Fibrinogen is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and both D-Dimer and
Thrombin-Antithrombin complexes may be suitable as laboratory markers of deep venous …

The formation of a fibrin clot is one of the key events in atherothrombotic vascular diseases,
such as myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke and peripheral arterial disease. Fibrin is …

We previously reported a monoclonal antibody named IF-43 that specifically recognizes
thrombin-modified fibrinogen (desAA-and desAABB-fibrin monomer) bound with fibrinogen …

Fibrinogen has recently emerged as a major risk factor for athero-thrombosis. However, the
pathophysiologic mechanism linking high fibrinogen concentration to cardiovascular …

Abstract γ′ Fibrinogen is an isoform of fibrinogen that normally constitutes about 7% of total
plasma fibrinogen, and arises from an alternative processing event in the γ chain mRNA. γ …

Highly purified, fibrinogen–fibrin related antigen (FR‐antigen) was isolated with good
recovery from 1.0–2.0 ml of human plasma, by immunoaffinity chromatography with antibody …

Recent meta‐analyses of prospective studies have shown that plasma levels of both
fibrinogen and fibrin D‐dimer are independent predictors of ischemic heart disease …
