Fibrinógeno. ¿Factor de riesgo o marcador de enfermedad vascular?

The fibrinogen (Fbg) molecule is a dimer, consisting of three pairs of different polypeptide chains. In the coagulation cascade, Fbg is converted into fibrin. It is an acute phase protein that is involved in several cellular interactions:platelet aggregation, blood rheology, pinocytosis, cell growth...

Atherosclerosis Fibrinogen Marker of activation Risk factor The fibrinogen (Fbg) molecule is a dimer, consisting of three pairs of different polypeptide chains. In the coagulation cascade, Fbg is converted into fibrin. It is an acute phase protein that is involved in several cellular interactions:platelet aggregation, blood rheology, pinocytosis, cell growth, cell migration, chemotaxis and endothelial cell injury.
