IPA: //faɪˈbrɪnədʒən//
KK: /faɪˈbrɪnədʒən/
Definition: A protein found in blood plasma that helps with blood clotting by being turned into fibrin when needed.
Example: Fibrinogen plays a crucial role in the process of blood coagulation.
IPA: //ˈfaɪbrɪnɔɪd//
KK: /ˈfaɪbrɪnɔɪd/
Definition: Relating to or resembling a protein involved in blood clotting.
Example: The doctor noted the fibrinoid changes in the tissue during the examination.
Definition: A type of material that looks like fibrin and is found in the placenta and in certain diseases, often in blood vessel walls and connective tissue.
Example: Fibrinoid deposits can be observed in the placental tissue during certain medical conditions.
IPA: //fɪˌbrɪnəˈlaɪsɪn//
KK: /fɪˌbrɪnəˈlaɪsɪn/
Definition: A type of enzyme that helps break down blood clots in the body.
Example: Fibrinolysin is important for preventing blood clots from becoming too large.
IPA: /faɪˌbrɪnəˈlaɪsɪs/
KK: /faɪˈbrɪnəˌlaɪsɪs/
Definition: The process in which fibrin, a protein involved in blood clotting, is broken down, typically by an enzyme called plasmin.
Example: Fibrinolysis is an important process in the healing of wounds as it helps to remove blood clots.
IPA: //faɪˌbrɪnəˈlɪtɪk//
KK: /faɪˌbrɪnəˈlɪtɪk/

Example: The doctor prescribed a fibrinolytic agent to help dissolve the blood clot.
IPA: //fɪˌbraɪnəˈpɛptaɪd//
KK: /fɪˌbraɪnəˈpɛptɪd/
Definition: A type of small protein fragment that is produced when fibrinogen is broken down by thrombin, which is important in the process of blood clotting.
Example: Fibrinopeptides play a crucial role in the formation of blood clots by helping to convert fibrinogen into fibrin.
IPA: /ˈfaɪbrɪnəs/
KK: /ˈfaɪbrɪnəs/
Definition: Relating to or made of a protein that helps in blood clotting.
Example: The doctor noted that the wound had a fibrinous coating, indicating healing.
IPA: /ˈfaɪbrəˌblæst/
KK: /ˈfaɪbroʊˌblæst/
Definition: A type of cell that helps form connective tissue in the body by producing proteins, including collagen, which supports the structure of tissues.
Example: Fibroblasts play a crucial role in wound healing by producing collagen and other fibers.
IPA: /ˌfaɪbrəˈblæstɪk/
KK: /ˌfaɪbroʊˈblæstɪk/
Definition: Relating to a type of cell in the body that helps in the formation of connective tissue.
Example: The fibroblastic activity is essential for wound healing.
IPA: //ˈfaɪbroʊɪn//
KK: /ˈfaɪbroʊɪn/
Definition: A type of protein that is a key part of silk and spider webs, known for being tough and not dissolving in water.
Example: Fibroin is the main protein found in silk, making it strong and durable.
