Immunohistochemistry was applied to AMeX-fixed sections of twelve cases of gastric carcinoma obtained at surgical resection to explore the occurrence and distribution of fibrin deposits in situ. Fibrinogen was distributed in abundance throughout perivascular zones and in the connective tissue of the tumor stroma. Fibrin II (des-fibrinopeptide B-type fibrin) was easily identified in a direct apposition to the surface membranes of viable carcinoma cells, predominantly at the host-tumor interface and in the regions immediately adjacent to the zones of angiogenesis. Further studies are required to identify the triggers of the coagulation reactions as well as fibrinolytic system components in the gastric cancer tissue.

D005337 Fibrin A protein derived from FIBRINOGEN in the presence of THROMBIN, which forms part of the blood clot. Antithrombin I
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.

D005345 Fibrinopeptide B Two small peptide chains removed from the N-terminal segment of the beta chains of fibrinogen by the action of thrombin. Each peptide chain contains 20 amino acid residues. The removal of fibrinopeptides B is not required for coagulation. Fibrinopeptides B
