ASA inhibits FXIII activation more in Leu34 carriers. Aims To clarify effect of ASA on FXIII activation, clot permeability, and fibrinolysis resistance depending on FXIII Val34Leu polymorphism. Patients 9 healthy volunteers. Intervention ASA 300 mg. Methods At baseline and 4 h after ASA intake FXIII activation, γ dimer concentration in clots, fibrin gel permeability, and resistance to fibrinolysis after tPA were assessed in tissue factor-dependent coagulation model. Results FXIII activation was slower after ASA; effect was larger in Leu34 carriers. γ dimer concentration in plasma clots was lower after ASA and changed more in Leu34Leu homozygotes. Fibrin gel was more permeable after ASA; effect was larger in Leu34 homozygotes. Fiber diameter and mass/length ratio from permeability were increased following ASA; effect was larger in Leu34 homozygotes. Gel turbidity increased after ASA and change was greater in Leu34 homozygotes. Max fibrinolysis rate and 50% lysis time increased after ASA. Lysis was faster and 50% lysis time was shorter in Leu34 homozygotes. Conclusions In healthy individuals ASA 300 mg delayed activation of FXIII and made fibrin gel more permeable and pro}, abstract={ne to lysis. Effects depended on FXIII Val34Leu polymorphism and were stronger in Leu34 homozygotes. Leu34 allele has unfavorable effect on fibrin structure and ASA reduces this effect with possible clinical implications.}, title={Effect of acetylsalicylic acid on fibrin clot stability depending on factor XIII Val34Leu polymorphism}, type={Praca doktorska}, keywords={polymorphizm, fibrin, factor XIII, Val34Leu, acetylsalicylic acid}, }
