About

    Thrombin activity refers to the enzymatic function of thrombin, which is a crucial protein in the blood coagulation cascade. Thrombin is responsible for the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin, which forms a blood clot to stop bleeding. Abnormal thrombin activity can lead to thrombotic disorders or excessive bleeding, making it a key focus in various research areas such as hemostasis, thrombosis, and cardiovascular diseases. Understanding and regulating thrombin activity is essential for preventing and treating blood clotting disorders.
