See antiplasmin.

antiplasmin [an″te-, an″ti-plaz´min]

a substance in the blood that inhibits plasmin. The most important is α₂-antiplasmin, which acts by forming stable complexes with free plasmin. It is also crosslinked to fibrin by coagulation factor XIII and inhibits the binding of plasminogen to fibrin. Inherited deficiency of α₂-antiplasmin results in tendency to severe bleeding, including extravasation into joints or their synovial cavities.
