Objective:

To determine how cellular elements modulate TXA’s impact on thrombus formation.

Key Findings:
  • TXA reduced the odds of venous thrombus formation by 90%.
  • TXA did not alter thrombus mass once clots formed.
  • VWF: Ag remained unchanged; MCP-1 rise was suppressed by TXA.
  • TXA decreased thrombin generation in whole blood but not in platelet-rich plasma.
  • TXA inhibited leukocyte surface–mediated plasminogen activation within fibrin clots.
  • Tail bleeding was unaffected by TXA.
