ADAMTS-13 assays in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
ADAMTS-13, the thirteenth member of the ADAMTS (A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease with Thrombo-Spondin 1 repeats) family, is the plasma metalloprotease responsible for regulating the multimeric structure of VWF. In congenital or acquired deficiency it is

ADAMTS-13: diagnóstico de laboratorio
ADAMTS-13 es una desintegrina y metaloproteasa, zinc y calcio dependiente, codificada en el cromosoma humano 9q34. Su rol primario es clivar los multímeros ultra grandes del factor de Von Willebrand (ULVWF) originando sus diferentes formas moleculares ...

ADAMTS -1 and -4 are up-regulated following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in the rat and their expression is modulated by TNF in cultured astrocytes [PDF]
ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) enzymes are a recently described group of metalloproteinases. The substrates degraded by ADAMTS-1, -4 and -5 suggests that they play a role in turnover of extracellular matrix in the

ADAMTS-13, von Willebrand factor and related parameters in severe sepsis and septic shock
BACKGROUND: Insufficient control of von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimer size as a result of severely deficient ADAMTS-13 activity results in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura associated with microvascluar thrombosis and platelet consumption, features ...

Multi-step binding of ADAMTS-13 to von Willebrand factor
Background: ADAMTS-13 proteolytic activity is controlled by the conformation of its substrate, von Willebrand factor (VWF), and changes in the secondary structure of VWF are essential for efficient cleavage.

ADAMTS-1 and Aggrecan are both in the nucleus.
(A) Colocalization of ADAMTS-1 and aggrecan. ADAMTS-1 (red), Aggrecan (green) and Nuclei (blue). Aggrecan is found in nuclei and cytoplasm and is colocalized with ADAMTS-1 in cell nucleolus (white arrows) in MCF7 and MDA-MB-231. Scale bar: 5 μm.

Acquired ADAMTS-13 Deficiency in Pediatric Patients with Severe Sepsis
[[abstract]]We studied the state of ultralarge von Willebrand factor (ULVWF) proteolysis in 21 pediatric patients with severe sepsis and found that the overall group of patients had moderately reduced ADAMTS-13 activity, but 31% had severe enzymatic ...

Differential expression of ADAMTS -1, -4, -5 and TIMP -3 in rat spinal cord at different stages of acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis [PDF]
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is an animal model of inflammatory demyelination, a pathological event common to multiple sclerosis (MS). During CNS inflammation there are alterations in the extracellular matrix (ECM).
