lüll Factor XIII (FXIII) and angiogenesis Dardik R; Loscalzo J; Inbal AJ Thromb Haemost 2006[Jan]; 4 (1): 19-25Factor XIII is a plasma transglutaminase that participates in the final stage of the coagulation cascade. Thrombin-activated FXIII (FXIIIa) catalyzes the formation of covalent cross-links between gamma-glutamyl and epsilon-lysyl residues on adjacent fibrin chains in polymerized fibrin to yield the mature clot. In addition to its role in hemostasis, FXIII is known to participate in wound healing and embryo implantation, which are processes involving angiogenesis. In this review, we discuss the role of FXIII in angiogenesis and the molecular mechanisms underlying its proangiogenic effects. The FXIII role in tissue repair and remodeling may at least in part be attributed to its pro-angiogenic activity.|Animals[MESH]|Embryo Implantation[MESH]|Factor XIII/*physiology[MESH]|Homeostasis[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Neovascularization, Physiologic/*physiology[MESH]|Wound Healing[MESH] |
