    increased FXIII activity is associated with an increased risk of MI in young patients. None of studied single genetic variants-F13A1 Val34Leu, THBS2 T/G 3'UTR and THBS4 Ala387Pro-and the extended CC/TT/GG haplotype of F13A1/THBS2/THBS4 genes was associated with MI in young age.

    this first South Asian study suggests neither protective nor deleterious effects of the F13A1 Val34Leu polymorphism on the risk of MI in young persons. The Leu allele frequency is intermediate to that reported from the West and the Far East. Traditional risk factors contribute greatly to risk even in younger MI patients in South Asia.

    Using Western blotting, kinetic assays, and microfluidic analyses, the study shows that FXIIIa covalently cross-links ABETA40 into dimers and oligomers (k cat/Km = 1.5 x 10(5) m(-1)s(-1)), as well as to fibrin, platelet proteins, and blood clots under flow in vitro ABETA40 also increased the stiffness of platelet-rich plasma clots in the presence of FXIIIa.

    It is a unique case showing the combination of a highly aggressive angiosarcoma and presence of inherited FXIII deficiency. It is also a rare example demonstrating the benefit of FXIII genotyping besides the expected acquired FXIII deficiency possibly due to neoplasm induced increased consumption by elevated crosslinking of fibrin fibers.
