Factor XIII deficiency does not prevent FeCl3‐induced carotid artery thrombus formation in mice

Abstract Background The compositions of venous (red blood cell–rich) and arterial (platelet‐rich) thrombi are mediated by distinct pathophysiologic processes; however, fibrin is a major structural component of both. The transglutaminase factor XIII (FXIII) stabilizes fibrin against mechanical and bi...
