Bryce A Kerlin’s Team Demonstrated Albumin Regulation of Fibrin Clot Density and Fibrinolysis
Bryce A Kerlin, MD, Researcher in Thrombosis, Kidney Disease and Hemostasis has shared a post on LinkedIn:
”In the latest research from my lab, Amanda Waller, in a great collaboration with Alisa Wolberg’s lab, demonstrated that albumin regulates both fibrin clot structure and its susceptibility to fibrinolysis.
Many thanks to our now retired lab tech, Katelyn Wolfgang, former student, Zachary Stevenson, and Lori Holle for their assay skills at the bench!
You guys made this project both possible and fun!!!
Our Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (JTH) paper in press can be found here.”
