| + | NT-4 is essential for neuron survival and proliferation throughout ones life span so maintaining proper amounts in the body is needed to stay healthy. Neuron growth factors are currently being used as biomarkers to study the relationship between them and various mental disease states including depression, schizophrenia, autism, Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease.  Knowing the cause of variance in these levels is key for prevention of certain neurological disorders.  | ||
| + | Depletion and/or unavailable receptor binding sites are also being studied to further understand these mechanisms.  | ||

Thrombin will cleave fibrinogen to insoluble fibrin and also activate factor XIII. Factor XIII and fibrin bind together forming a stable bond and attach to platelets. <ref>PMID: 25535411</ref> | ||
