... is increased fibrin formation and platelet activation resulting in faster clot formation. PolyP is incorporated into the forming clot thereby modifying the structure of the resulting fibrin network and its susceptibility to degradation by certain plasminogen activators. In conclusion, release of platelet polyP...

... that the persistence of fibrin, due to impaired plasminogen activator activity, results in the formation of adhesions between damaged serosal surfaces. This study aimed to assess the role of fibrinolysis in adhesion formation using mice deficient in either of the plasminogen activator proteases, tissue-type...
