HBOCs enhance fibrinolysis both with and without addition of tPA; moreover, this mechanism is independent of plasmin as the phenomenon persists in the presence of TXA. Our findings indicate the hemoglobin molecule or its components stimulate fibrinolysis by both tPA-dependent and innate mechanisms.
