- A white insoluble fibrous protein formed by the action of thrombin on fibrinogen when blood clots; it forms a network that traps red cells and platelets
- Fibrin (also called Factor Ia) is a fibrous protein involved in the clotting of blood, and is non-globular. It is a fibrillar protein that is polymerised to form a "mesh" that forms a hemostatic plug or clot (in conjunction with platelets) over a wound site.
- The primary end product of the coagulation cascade. Fibrin links itself into strands to form a net. This net traps blood cells and tightens itself through cross-linkages, resulting in a dense blood clot.
- This is a solid substance (formed from fibrinogen) that makes a clot harder to break up. It forms the mesh or net that holds platelets in place.
- Protein that forms a meshwork, trapping erythrocytes, to become blood clot. Precursor is fibrinogen.
- A protein involved in blood clotting. Fibroblasts: A type of cell found in developing or repairing tissues eg. the skin.
- A filamentous protein formed from the precursor fibrinogen by the enzyme thrombin.
- The end product of the clotting mechanism that forms a network of fibers that enmesh the formed elements of blood.
- A protein necessary for blood clotting; fibrin forms a web-like mesh that traps platelets and red blood cells and holds a clot together.
