Factor XIII cross-links fibrin(ogen) independent of fibrin polymerization in experimental acute liver injury

Lauren G. Poole et al.

Summary: This study investigated the mechanisms of fibrin polymerization and cross-linking in acute liver injury induced by acetaminophen overdose. It was found that deficiency in FXIII dramatically reduced fibrin(ogen) cross-linking, while the impact on fibrin(ogen) deposition and cross-linking was less significant in Fib(AEK) mice. The presence of oxidative mediators in the injured liver was proposed as a factor affecting fibrin polymerization without affecting FXIII-mediated cross-linking.

Elimination of fibrin γ-chain cross-linking by FXIIIa increases pulmonary embolism arising from murine inferior vena cava thrombi

Cedric Duval et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated that the lack of fibrin gamma-chain cross-linking leads to weakened thrombi that are more prone to fragmentation, increasing the risk of embolization. The findings also highlight the important role of fibrin gamma-chain cross-linking in clot stability and provide mechanistic targets for preventing thrombosis through selective modulation of activated Factor XIII-mediated fibrin alpha-chain cross-linking.
