ABSTRACT
Fibrinogen is the substrate of plasma coagulation. It plays an important role in the formation of reticular network, which is crucial to the strength and stability of blood clots. In addition to directly participating in coagulation, fibrinogen also participates in the destruction of blood-brain barrier and neuroinflammation. This article reviews the pathophysiological changes of fibrinogen after traumatic brain injury. Considerable efforts have been made to understand the mechanisms by which fibrinogen damages the central nervous system. Combined with the latest research hotspots, potentially promising treatment strategies at the molecular level were discussed. We believe that understanding the role of fibrinogen-mediated damage in nerve and blood-brain barrier function will enable timely intervention in patients with nerve damage, and guide the development of novel targeted therapeutics.
