Blood Accessibility to Fibrin in Venous Thrombosis is Thrombus Age-Dependent and Predicts Fibrinolytic Efficacy: An In Vivo Fibrin Molecular Imaging Study

Abstract: Fibrinolytic therapy of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is increasingly utilized, yet limited knowledge is available regarding in vivo mechanisms that govern fibrinolytic efficacy. In particular, it is unknown how age-dependent thrombus organization limits direct blood contact with fibrin, the target of blood-based fibrinolytic agents. Utilizing high-resolution in vivo optical molecular imaging with FTP11, a near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) fibrin-specific reporter, here we investigated the in vivo interrelation… Show more

“…A general timeline for a thrombus as indicated by these studies includes the following: (a) 1e2 days after initial injury, clots rich in fibrin and platelets with pockets of erythrocytes; (b) 7e14 days after clot presentation, cell infiltration begins, clot increases in density and stiffness, eventual replacement by other extracellular proteins including collagen; and (c) 28 days after clot presentation, remodelled vein wall, rich in cells. 55,56 The thrombus maturation process is highly dependent on a host of factors and signalling components.…”

“…77, 78 In one example, ultra-small superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (CLIO) were conjugated to the peptide from EP-2104R and a near-infrared fluorophore (CyAm7) providing a platform for intravascular ultrasound and fluorescent imaging of fibrin expression in arterial thrombosis. Applications of the CLIO-CyAm7 nanoparticles can also be extended to MR imaging.…”
