Severe deficiency of ADAMTS-13 leads to thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Few studies have reported reduced activity of ADAMTS-13 in patients with atypical and typical hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS).

Introduction. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and von Willebrand factor (vWF) are integral players in thrombosis and inflammation in cancer patients. It has been increasingly evident that an active interplay exists between NETs and vWF.

ADAMTS proteases in cardiovascular physiology and disease [PDF]
The a disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motif (ADAMTS) family comprises 19 proteases that regulate the structure and function of extracellular proteins in the extracellular matrix and blood.

BACKGROUND: Immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is caused by inhibitory and/or clearing anti-ADAMTS-13 (A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease with ThromboSpondin type 1 repeats, member 13) autoantibodies.

Recombinant ADAMTS-13 Improves Survival of Mice Subjected to Endotoxemia [PDF]
When stimulated by proinflammatory mediators, endothelial cells release ultra-large von Willebrand factor (ULVWF) multimers that are hyperactive in activating and aggregating platelets.

Changes in plasma von Willebrand factor concentration (VWF:Ag) and ADAMTS-13 activity (the metalloprotease that cleaves VWF physiologically) have been reported in several cardiovascular disorders with prognostic implications.

ADAMTS-13 proteolyzed by thrombin has reduced affinity for von Willebrand factor (VWF)
(A) 6 n ADAMTS-13, 60 n thrombin-cleaved ADAMTS-13 (ADAMTS-13/FIIa) or 60 n thrombin-cleaved ADAMTS-13/6 n ADAMTS-13 (10:1 mix) was incubated with 10 n purified plasma-derived VWF in the presence of 1.5 urea and 5 m BaCl.
