Abstract
Hormone therapy (HT) has been reported to reduce protein carbonylation (PC) in postmenopausal women, in whom fibrinolysis is impaired. We investigated whether PC affects fibrinolysis and if HT modulates this effect. We enrolled 150 women aged 55.5 ± 4.7 years in a randomized interventional open-label study, including 50 on standard oral HT, 50 on ultra-low-dose HT, and 50 controls. PC, along with global fibrinolysis (clot lysis time, CLT), fibrinolysis proteins, and prothrombotic markers were determined at baseline and at 24 weeks. Patients with the baseline top quartile PC (> 2.07 nM/mg protein) had 10.3% longer CLT, higher activity (but not antigen) of TAFI (+ 19.9%) and PAI-1 (+ 68.1%) compared to the remainder. No differences were observed in thrombin generation, factor VIII, plasminogen or α2-antiplasmin. On-treatment PC decreased by 16.4% (p < 0.0001), without differences related to the type of HT, compared to baseline and by 30% compared to controls, in whom PC and fibrinolysis markers remained unchanged. Patients with PC > 2.07 nM/mg had shortened CLT during HT compared to baseline, along with lower PAI-1 (-69%) and TAFI (-26%) activity. In this subgroup CLT was 5.8% shorter compared to controls with the highest PC. In postmenopausal women with increased PC, HT was accompanied by PC reduction and faster clot lysis together with decreased PAI-1 and TAFI activity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Plasma protein carbonylation that reflects oxidative stress has been demonstrated to be associated with the prothrombotic fibrin clot phenotype. However, the role of protein carbonyls (PC) in predicting ischemic stroke in atrial fibrillation (AF) is largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate whether PC increase the risk of stroke in anticoagulated AF patients during follow-up. METHODS In 243 AF patients on anticoagulation (median age 69 years; median CHA2DS2-VASc of 4), we measured plasma PC using the assay by Becatti, along with plasma clot permeability (Ks), clot lysis time (CLT), thrombin generation, and fibrinolytic proteins, including plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) and thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI). Ischemic stroke, major bleeding, and mortality were recorded during a median follow-up of 53 months. RESULTS Plasma PC levels (median, 3.16 [2.54-3.99] nM/mg protein) at baseline showed positive associations with age (P < 0.001), CHA2DS2-VASc (P = 0.003), and N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide (P = 0.001), but not with type of AF or comorbidities except for heart failure (P = 0.007). PC levels were correlated with CLT (r = 0.342, P < 0.001), endogenous thrombin potential (r = 0.217, P = 0.001) and weakly with Ks (r = -0.145, P = 0.024), but not with fibrinogen, PAI-1, or TAFI levels. Stroke was recorded in 20 patients (1.9%/year), who had at baseline 36% higher PC levels (P < 0.001). Elevated PC (P = 0.003) at baseline were independently associated with stroke risk. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that in patients with AF enhanced protein carbonylation is associated with increased "residual" risk of stroke despite anticoagulation, which is at least in part due to unfavorably altered fibrin clot phenotype.

Abstract
Significant evidence suggests that reversible oxidation of methionine residues provides a mechanism capable of scavenging reactive species, thus creating a cycle with catalytic efficiency to counteract or mitigate deleterious effects of ROS on other functionally important amino acid residues. Because of the absence of MSRs in the blood plasma, oxidation of methionines in extracellular proteins is effectively irreversible and, therefore, the ability of methionines to serve as interceptors of oxidant molecules without impairment of the structure and function of plasma proteins is still debatable. This review presents data on the oxidative modification of both intracellular and extracellular proteins that differ drastically in their spatial structures and functions indicating that the proteins contain antioxidant methionines/the oxidation of which does not affect (or has a minor effect) on their functional properties. The functional consequences of methionine oxidation in proteins have been mainly identified from studies in vitro and, to a very limited extent, in vivo. Hence, much of the functioning of plasma proteins constantly subjected to oxidative stress remains unclear and requires further research to understand the evolutionary role of methionine oxidation in proteins for the maintenance of homeostasis and risk factors affecting the development of ROS-related pathologies. Data presented in this review contribute to increased evidence of antioxidant role of surface-exposed methionines and can be useful for understanding a possible mechanism that supports or impairs structure-function relationships of proteins subjected to oxidative stress.

Abstract
The damage to blood coagulation factor XIII (FXIII) at different stages of its enzymatic activation under the action of various physiological amounts of hypochlorite ion was studied. The results obtained by HPLC-MS/MS, SDS-PAGE, and colorimetry showed that, during the conversion of FXIII to FXIIIa, the vulnerability of FXIII to hypochlorite-induced oxidation increased. FXIII oxidized with 150 μM hypochlorite completely retained its enzymatic activity inherent to the intact protein, whereas FXIIIa treated with 50 μM hypochlorite showed sharply reduced enzymatic activity. It was shown that a number of methionine and cysteine residues on the catalytic subunit can perform antioxidant function; additionally, the regulatory subunits of FXIII-B contribute to the antioxidant protection of the catalytic center of the FXIII-A subunit, which, together with the tight packing of the tetrameric structure of the FXIII proenzyme, are the three factors that provide high protein resistance to the oxidizing agent.

Abstract
Aortic stenosis (AS) has been associated with impaired fibrinolysis and increased oxidative stress. This study aimed to investigate whether oxidative stress could alter fibrin clot properties in AS. We studied 173 non-diabetic patients, aged 51–79 years, with isolated AS. We measured plasma protein carbonylation (PC) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), along with plasma clot permeability (Ks), thrombin generation, and fibrinolytic efficiency, which were evaluated by two assays: clot lysis time (CLT) and lysis time (Lys50). Coagulation factors and fibrinolytic proteins were also determined. Plasma PC showed an association with AS severity, reflected by the aortic valve area and the mean and maximum aortic gradients. Plasma PC was positively correlated with CLT, Lys50, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and tissue factor (TF) antigens. TBARS were positively correlated with maximum aortic gradient, Lys50, and TF antigen. Regression analysis showed that PC predicted prolonged CLT (>104 min; odds ratio (OR) 6.41, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.58–17.83, p < 0.001) and Lys50 (>565 s; OR 5.83, 95% CI 2.23–15.21, p < 0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that mean aortic gradient, PC, α2-antiplasmin, PAI-1, and triglycerides were predictors of prolonged CLT, while PC, α2-antiplasmin, and fibrinogen were predictors of Lys50. Our findings suggest that elevated oxidative stress contributes to impaired fibrinolysis in AS and is associated with AS severity.

Abstract
The blood coagulation factor XIII (FXIII) plays a critical role in supporting coagulation and fibrinolysis due to both the covalent crosslinking of fibrin polymers, rendering them resistant to plasmin lysis, and the crosslinking of fibrin to proteins of the fibrinolytic system. The hypochlorite-mediated oxidation of the blood coagulation factor XIII (FXIII) at the different stages of its enzymatic activation is studied for the first time in this paper. The consolidated results obtained with the aid of MS/MS, electrophoresis, and colorimetry demonstrate that in the process of FXIII's conversion into FXIIIa, the vulnerability of FXIII to hypochlorite-induced oxidation increased as follows: native FXIII < FXIII + Ca2+ << FXIII + Ca2+/thrombin. The modification sites were detected among all the structural regions of the catalytic FXIII-A subunit, except for the activation peptide, and embraced several sushi domains of the FXIII-B subunit. Oxidized amino acid residues belonging to FXIII-A are surface-exposed residues and can perform an antioxidant role. The regulatory FXIII-B subunits additionally contribute to the antioxidant defense of the catalytic center of the FXIII-A subunits. Taken together, the present data along with the data from previous studies demonstrate that the FXIII proenzyme structure is adapted to oxidation.

Abstract
Essentials Factor XIII is a heterotetramer with 2 catalytic A subunits and 2 non-catalytic B subunits. Structure of active and inactive factor XIII was studied with atomic force microscopy. Inactive factor XIII is made of an A2 globule and 2 flexible B subunits extending from it. Activated factor XIII separates into a B2 homodimer and 2 monomeric active A subunits. SUMMARY: Background Factor XIII (FXIII) is a precursor of the blood plasma transglutaminase (FXIIIa) that is generated by thrombin and Ca2+ and covalently crosslinks fibrin to strengthen blood clots. Inactive plasma FXIII is a heterotetramer with two catalytic A subunits and two non-catalytic B subunits. Inactive A subunits have been characterized crystallographically, whereas the atomic structure of the entire FXIII and B subunits is unknown and the oligomerization state of activated A subunits remains controversial. Objectives Our goal was to characterize the (sub)molecular structure of inactive FXIII and changes upon activation. Methods Plasma FXIII, non-activated or activated with thrombin and Ca2+ , was studied by single-molecule atomic force microscopy. Additionally, recombinant separate A and B subunits were visualized and compared with their conformations and dimensions in FXIII and FXIIIa. Results and Conclusions We showed that heterotetrameric FXIII forms a globule composed of two catalytic A subunits with two flexible strands comprising individual non-catalytic B subunits that protrude on one side of the globule. Each strand corresponds to seven to eight out of 10 tandem repeats building each B subunit, called sushi domains. The remainder were not seen, presumably because they were tightly bound to the globular A2 dimer. Some FXIII molecules had one or no visible strands, suggesting dissociation of the B subunits from the globular core. After activation of FXIII with thrombin and Ca2+ , B subunits dissociated and formed B2 homodimers, whereas the activated globular A subunits dissociated into monomers. These results characterize the molecular organization of FXIII and changes with activation.

Abstract
Plasma fibrin-stabilizing factor (pFXIII) is a heterotetrameric proenzyme composed of two catalytic A subunits (FXIII-A2) and two inhibitory/carrier B subunits (FXIII-B2). The main function of the protein is the formation of cross-links between the polypeptide chains of the fibrin clot. The conversion of pFXIII into the enzymatic form FXIII-A2* is a multistage process. Like many other blood plasma proteins, pFXIII is an oxidant-susceptible target. The influence of distinct sites susceptible to oxidation-mediated modifications on the changes in the structural-functional characteristics of the protein remains fully unexplored. For the first time, a set of the oxidation sites within FXIII-A2 under ozone-induced oxidation of pFXIII at different stages of its activation have been identified by mass spectrometry, and the extent as well as the chemical nature of these modifications have been explored. It was shown that the set of amino acid residues susceptible to oxidative attack and the degree of oxidation of these residues in FXIII-A2 of non-activated pFXIII, pFXIII activated by Ca2+ and fully activated pFXIII treated with thrombin and Ca2+ significantly differ. The obtained data enable one to postulate that in the process of the proenzyme conversion into FXIII-A2*, new earlier-unexposed amino acid residues become available for the oxidizer while some of the initially surface-exhibited residues are buried within the protein globule.

Abstract
For the first time, by using mass-spectrometry method, the oxidation-mediated modification of the catalytic FXIII-A subunit of plasma fibrin-stabilizing factor, pFXIII, has been studied. The oxidative sites were identified to belong to all structural elements of the catalytic subunit: the β-sandwich (Tyr104, Tyr117, and Cys153), the catalytic core domain (Met160, Trp165, Met266, Cys328, Asp352, Pro387, Arg409, Cys410, Tyr442, Met475, Met476, Tyr482, and Met500), the β-barrel 1 (Met596), and the β-barrel 2 (Met647, Pro676, Trp692, Cys696, and Met710), which correspond to 3.9%, 1.11%, 0.7%, and 3.2%, respectively, of oxidative modifications as compared to the detectable amounts of amino acid residues in each of the structural domains. Lack of information on some parts of the molecule may be associated with the spatial unavailability of residues, complicating analysis of the molecule. The absence of oxidative sites localized within crucial areas of the structural domains may be brought about by both the spatial inaccessibility of the oxidant to amino acid residues in the zymogen and the screening effect of the regulatory FXIII-B subunit.

Abstract
Fibrinogen is extremely susceptible to attack by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Having been suffered an oxidative modification, the fibrinogen molecules, now with altered spatial structure and function of fibrin network, affect hemostasis differently. However, the potential effects of the oxidative stress on the early stages of the fibrin self-assembly process remain unexplored. To clarify the damaging influence of ROS on the knob 'A': hole 'a' and the D:D interactions, the both are operating on the early stages of the fibrin polymerization, we have used a novel approach based on exploration of FXIIIa-mediated self-assembly of the cross-linked fibrin oligomers dissolved in the moderately concentrated urea solutions. The oligomers were composed of monomeric desA fibrin molecules created by cleaving the fibrinopeptides A off the fibrinogen molecules with a thrombin-like enzyme, reptilase. According to the UV-absorbance and fluorescence measurements data, the employed low ozone/fibrinogen ratios have induced only a slight fibrinogen oxidative modification that was accompanied by modest chemical transformations of the aromatic amino acid residues of the protein. Else, a slight consumption of the accessible tyrosine residues has been observed due to intermolecular dityrosine cross-links formation. The set of experimental data gathered with the aid of electrophoresis, elastic light scattering and analytical centrifugation has clearly witnessed that the oxidation can serve as an effective promoter for the observed enhanced self-assembly of the covalently cross-linked oligomers. At urea concentration of 1.20M, the pristine and oxidized fibrin oligomers were found to comprise a heterogeneous set of the double-stranded protofibrils that are cross-linked only by γ-γ dimers and the fibers consisting on average of four strands that are additionally linked by α polymers. The amounts of the oxidized protofibrils and the fibers accumulated in the system were higher than those of the non-oxidized counterparts. Moreover, the γ and α polypeptide chains of the oxidized molecules were more readily crosslinked by the FXIIIa. Upon increasing the urea solution concentration to 4.20M, the cross-linked double-stranded desA fibrin protofibrils have dissociated into the single-stranded fibrin oligomers, whereas the fibers dissociated into both the double-stranded desA fibrin oligomers, the structural integrity of the latter being maintained by means of the intermolecular α polymers, and the single-stranded fibrin oligomers cross-linked only by γ-γ dimers. The data we have obtained in this study indicate that the FXIIIa-mediated process of assembling the cross-linked protofibrils and the fibers constructed from the oxidized monomeric fibrin molecules was facilitated due to the strengthening of D:D interactions. The findings infer that the enhanced longitudinal D:D interactions become more essential in the assembly of soluble protofibrils when the interactions knobs 'A': holes 'a' are injured by oxidation. The new experimental findings presented here could be of help for elucidating the essential adaptive molecular mechanisms capable of mitigating the detrimental action of ROS in the oxidatively damaged fibrin self-assemblage processes.

Abstract
The effect on ozone-induced oxidation on the self-assembly of fibrin in the presence of fibrin-stabilizing factor FXIIIa of soluble cross-linked fibrin oligomers was studied in a medium containing moderate urea concentrations. It is established that fibrin oligomers were formed by the protofibrils cross-linked through γ-γ dimers and the fibrils additionally cross-linked by through α-polymers. The oxidation promoted both the accumulation of greater amounts of γ-γ dimers and the formation of protofibrils, fibrils, and their dissociation products emerging with increasing urea concentrations, which have a high molecular weight. It is concluded that the oxidation enhances the axial interactions between D-regions of fibrin molecules.

Abstract
The crosslinking of fibrin γ-polypeptide chains under the influence of the plasma fibrin-stabilizing factor (FXIIIa), which causes their conversion to γ-γ dimers, is the major enzyme reaction of covalent fibrin stabilization. We studied the self-assembly of soluble cross-linked fibrin oligomers. The results of analytical ultracentrifugation as well as elastic and dynamic light scattering showed that the double-stranded fibrin oligomers formed under the influence of moderate concentrations of urea are cross-linked only due to formation of γ-γ dimers, which can dissociate into single-stranded structure when the concentration of urea increases. This fact proves that γ-γ dimers are formed in the end-to-end manner.

Abstract
FXIIIa-mediated isopeptide γ-γ bonds are produced between γ polypeptide chains of adjacent monomeric fibrin. Despite the use of the different methodological approaches there are apparently conflicting ideas regarding the orientation of γ-γ bonds. To identify the orientation of these bonds a novel approach has been applied. It was based on self-assembly of soluble cross-linked fibrin protofibrils ongoing in the urea solution of moderate concentrations followed by dissociation of protofibrils in the conditions of increasing urea concentration. The oligomers were composed of monomeric desA fibrin molecules created by cleavage of the fibrinopeptides A from fibrinogen molecules with thrombin-like enzyme, reptilase. The results of elastic and dynamic light scattering coupled with analytical ultracentrifugation indicated an emergence of the double-stranded rod-like fibrin protofibrils. For the first time, the protofibrils are proved to exhibit an ability to dissociate under increasing urea concentration to yield single-stranded structures. Since no accumulation of α polymers has been found the covalent structure of soluble single-stranded fibrin oligomers is entirely brought about by γ-γ bonds. The results of this study provide an extra evidence to support the model of the longitudinal γ-γ bonds that form between the γ chains end-to-end within the same strand of a protofibril.

Abstract
Native fibrinogen is a key blood plasma protein whose main function is to maintain hemostasis by virtue of producing cross-linked fibrin clots under the influence of thrombin and fibrin-stabilizing factor (FXIIIa). The aim of this study was to investigate mechanisms of impairment of both the molecular structure and the spatial organization of fibrinogen under ozone-induced oxidation. FTIR analysis showed that ozone treatment of the whole fibrinogen molecule results in the growth of hydroxyl, carbonyl, and carboxyl group content. A similar analysis of fibrinogen D and E fragments isolated from the oxidized protein also revealed transformation of distinct important functional groups. In particular, a remarkable decay of N-H groups within the peptide backbone was observed along with a lowering of the content of C-H groups belonging to either the aromatic moieties or the aliphatic chain CH2 and CH3 units. The model experiments performed showed that the rather unexpected decay of the aliphatic CH units might be caused by the action of hydroxyl radicals, these being produced in the water solution from ozone. The observed dissimilarities in the shapes of amide I bands of the fibrinogen D and E fragments before and after ozone treatment are interpreted in terms of feasible local conformational changes affecting the secondary structure of the protein. Taken as a whole, the FTIR data suggests that the terminal D fragments of fibrinogen are markedly more susceptible to the ozone-induced oxidation than the central E fragment. The data on elastic and dynamic light scattering provide evidence that, in the presence of FXIIIa, both the unoxidized and the oxidized fibrinogen molecules bind to one another in an "end-to-end" fashion to form the flexible covalently cross-linked fibrinogen homopolymers. The γ and α polypeptide chains of the oxidized fibrinogen proved to be involved in the enzymatic cross-linking more readily than those of unaffected fibrinogen. The experimental data on fibrinogen oxidation acquired in the present study, combined with our earlier findings, make it reasonable to suppose that the spatial structure of fibrinogen could be evolutionarily adapted to some reactive oxygen species actions detrimental to the protein function.
