New assays for thrombin-antithrombin III complex, plasmin-alpha 2-plasmin inhibitor complex, FDP-D-dimer, t-PA/PAI-1 complex and prothrombin fragment F1+2 are reviewed as molecular markers for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). These are sensitive to early stage indication of DIC. Fluctuation of their levels was also relative to the state of DIC. It is therefore believed that they will play an important role in the diagnosis of DIC, as solid members of its parameter. On the other hand, t-PA/PAI-1 complex is suggested to be the complication marker of DIC, such as multiple organ failure (MOF), as its level was thought to reflect endothelial cell stimulation during DIC.
