a(MESH:Fibrin)
From another perspective, in vitro assays have demonstrated that heme can also bind to fibrinogen and decrease its thrombin-mediated cleavage, thus affecting the final common coagulation pathway and reducing fibrin formation, important in clotting [44] (Figure 1). PubMed:26875449
Heme perturbs the enzymatic activity of thrombin, further contributing to the overall anticoagulant effect and decreased fibrin formation [45]. PubMed:26875449
Taken sequentially, it appears that the release of heme under hemolytic conditions initiates the extrinsic pathway of coagulation through the upregulation of TF on endothelial cells and leukocytes, but subsequently blocks the propagation of coagulation by inhibiting FVIII and FV, and by inhibiting the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin and fibrin clots.

During DIC, fibrin strands within the fibrin mesh formed could cut red blood cells, resulting in the formation of schistocytes (strongly deformed red blood cells or fragments of red blood cells) and the release of hemoglobin. PubMed:29956069
