The blood clotting protein made in the liver is called fibrin. Along with blood coagulation (the complex blood clotting process), fibrin is involved in signal transduction, platelet activation, and protein polymerization.

What organ makes prothrombin?

The liver is responsible for producing prothrombin, which is a precursor to the blood-clotting protein thrombin. Thrombin plays a crucial role in the blood coagulation process by converting fibrinogen into fibrin to form clots and prevent excessive bleeding.

What sense organ is affected by hemophilia?

Hemophilia is actually the lacking of specific proteins in the blood. The liver normally produces these proteins (called clotting factors) but in people with hemophilia it does not function normally, either not producing or produces non funtioning versions of one or more of these clotting factor proteins


Does vitamin k help stop bleeding?

Vitamin K is necessary for normal clotting of blood in humans. Specifically, vitamin K is required for the liver to make factors that are necessary for blood to properly clot (coagulate), including factor II (prothrombin), factor VII (proconvertin), factor IX (thromboplastin component), and factor X (Stuart factor). Other clotting factors that depend on vitamin K are protein C, protein S, and protein Z. Deficiency of vitamin K or disturbances of liver function (for example, severe liver failure) may lead to deficiencies of clotting factors and excess bleeding.


What is difference between prothrombin and thrombin?

There is a long chain reaction from the moment one recieves a cut to the final stage where the cut is healed. The process involves many chemical reactions. In order for the blood to produce a final clot that will stem the bleeding, the blood turns a protein called PROTHROMBIN into THROMBIN. Thrombin is an enzyme that presides over the conversion of a substance called fibrinogen to fibrin, which promotes blood clotting.


What is the role of the liver in protein metabolism?

The liver produces the proteins that are secreted into the blood. The liver is responsible for protein metabolism, degradation and synthesis
