Prothrombin is a carbohydrate-protein compound in plasma essential to coagulation.
In response to bleeding, a complex series of clotting-factor interactions leads to its conversion by thromboplastin to thrombin, which transforms fibrinogen in plasma into fibrin.
Fibrin and platelets combine to form a clot.Prothrombin and prothrombin fragment F1+2 (F1+2) were demonstrated in the tumor stroma on cancer cells and on small blood vessels in areas of neoangiogenesis at the host-tumor interface.
F1+2 is an indicator of local activation of blood coagulation in cancer tissue.
Thrombin itself is impossible to quantitate and so the use of surrogate markers is necessary.
The measurement of F1+2 would be an excellent marker of thrombin generation.
This is helped by the fact that F1+2 is not generated in vivo by any other mechanism.
Fragment 1+2 has a half life of about 1 hour and is cleared from the bloodstream by the liver.
