In cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), the amyloid β (Aβ) peptide deposits along the vascular lumen, leading to degeneration and dysfunction of surrounding tissues. Activated coagulation factor XIIIa (FXIIIa) covalently cross-links proteins in blood and vasculature, such as in blood clots and on the extracellular matrix. Although FXIIIa co-localizes with Aβ in CAA, the ability of FXIIIa to cross-link Aβ has not been demonstrated. Using Western blotting, kinetic assays, and microfluidic analyses, we show that FXIIIa covalently cross-links Aβ40 into dimers and oligomers (/ = 1.5 × 10 ms), as well as to fibrin, platelet proteins, and blood clots under flow Aβ40 also increased the stiffness of platelet-rich plasma clots in the presence of FXIIIa. These results suggest that FXIIIa-mediated cross-linking may contribute to the formation of Aβ deposits in CAA and Alzheimer's disease.
在脑淀粉样血管病 (CAA) 和阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 中，淀粉样 β (Aβ) 肽沉积在血管腔中，导致周围组织的退化和功能障碍。活化的凝血因子 XIIIa (FXIIIa) 使血液和血管中的蛋白质发生共价交联，如在血栓和细胞外基质上。尽管 FXIIIa 在 CAA 中与 Aβ 共定位，但 FXIIIa 交联 Aβ 的能力尚未得到证实。通过 Western blot、动力学分析和微流分析，我们表明 FXIIIa 将 Aβ40 共价交联成二聚体和寡聚体（/ = 1.5 × 10 ms），以及交联纤维蛋白、血小板蛋白和流动状态下的血栓。Aβ40 还增加了富含血小板的血浆血栓在 FXIIIa 存在下的刚性。这些结果表明，FXIIIa 介导的交联可能有助于 CAA 和阿尔茨海默病中 Aβ 沉积的形成。
