Defibrotide is an oligonucleotide mixture with demonstrated antithrombotic, fibrinolytic, anti-adhesive and anti-inflammatory actions. The mechanism of action is multifactorial. It primarily acts through reducing excessive endothelial cell (EC) activation (endothelial dysfunction), modulating endothelial homeostasis as well as restoring thrombo-fibrinolytic balance. However, the exact mechanism of action of defibrotide is not fully elucidated. |
