Fibrin(ogen), Its Degradation Products and their Motif Antagonist and Atherosclerosis / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Atherosclerosis is the most important pathological basis of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases. As an independent risk factor of atherosclerosis, fibrin(ogen) and its degradation products involve in the processes of the formation and development of atherosclerosis. This article reviews the relationship between fibrin(ogen) and/or its degradation products and atherosclerosis, and also introduces the development and application prospects for some specific motif antagonists of fibrin(ogen) in the treatment of atherosclerosis and ischemic cerebrovascular diseases.
