Normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate with hyperfibrinogenemia in 6-sulfanilamidoindazole arthritis. 1979

M L Miller, and C O Samuelson, and J R Ward

The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is the most frequently employed laboratory indicator of inflammatory activity. The plasma fibrinogen concentration is usually increased in inflammatory disorders and is thought to contribute to the ESR elevation, 6-sulfanilamidoindazole induced arthritis in rats produces very high plasma fibrinogen concentrations and increased blood viscosity but no change in ESR.

D001809 Blood Viscosity The internal resistance of the BLOOD to shear forces. The in vitro measure of whole blood viscosity is of limited clinical utility because it bears little relationship to the actual viscosity within the circulation, but an increase in the viscosity of circulating blood can contribute to morbidity in patients suffering from disorders such as SICKLE CELL ANEMIA and POLYCYTHEMIA.

D005340 Fibrinogen Plasma glycoprotein clotted by thrombin, composed of a dimer of three non-identical pairs of polypeptide chains (alpha, beta, gamma) held together by disulfide bonds. Fibrinogen clotting is a sol-gel change involving complex molecular arrangements: whereas fibrinogen is cleaved by thrombin to form polypeptides A and B, the proteolytic action of other enzymes yields different fibrinogen degradation products.
