Fibrinemonomeerren

Fibrinemonomeerren is a proposed class of nanoscale biomaterials derived from fibrin or fibrinogen, envisioned to form self-assembling networks composed of uniform units called fibrinemonomers. The term is used in speculative and theoretical discussions to describe a set of constructs that combine the biocompatibility of fibrin with programmable nanoscale architecture.

In conceptual models, fibrinemonomers are synthetic or semi-synthetic units on the order of tens of nanometers in size, featuring cross-linkable sites and incorporated bioactive ligands. When assembled, these monomers create porous, hydrogel-like networks—referred to as fibrinemonomeerren—with tunable stiffness, porosity, and degradation rates. The resulting materials are proposed to support cell infiltration, vascularization, and controlled interaction with surrounding tissues.

Synthesis and assembly are described in speculative workflows as starting from modified fibrinogen or engineered fibrin monomers, followed by triggered polymerization and cross-linking. Assembly conditions such as calcium ion concentration, proteolytic activity, pH, temperature, and ionic strength are cited as levers to influence network architecture and stability. Enzymatic cross-linking, for example by a transglutaminase analogue, is proposed to confer mechanical integrity and resistance to degradation.

Research status and prospective applications: the concept remains largely theoretical, with limited experimental demonstration in mainstream literature. Potential applications cited include regenerative medicine scaffolds, localized drug delivery, and wound-healing materials. Challenges cited include achieving consistent monomer production, controlling network uniformity, avoiding immunogenic responses, and scaling production.
