ADAMTS13 specifically cleaves the multimeric von Willebrand factor (VWF), and an imbalance between ADAMTS13 activity (ADAMTS13:AC) and VWF antigen (VWF:Ag) levels is associated with the severity of liver cirrhosis (LC).

The ADAMTS (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin motifs) family [PDF]
The ADAMTS (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin motifs) enzymes are secreted, multi-domain matrix-associated zinc metalloendopeptidases that have diverse roles in tissue morphogenesis and patho-physiological remodeling, in ...

ADAMTS13 regulation of VWF multimer distribution in severe COVID‐19
Consistent with fulminant endothelial cell activation, elevated plasma von Willebrand factor (VWF) antigen levels have been reported in patients with COVID‐19.

Evidence of protective effects of recombinant ADAMTS13 in a humanized model of sickle cell disease
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited red blood cell disorder that occurs worldwide. Acute vaso-occlusive crisis is the main cause of hospitalization in patients with SCD.

Clinical surveillance of thrombotic microangiopathies in Scotland, 2003-2005 [PDF]
The prevalence, incidence and outcomes of haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) and thrombotic thrombocytopaenic purpura (TTP) are not well established in adults or children from prospective studies. We sought to identify both outcomes and current management

Reduced ADAMTS13 levels in patients with acute and chronic cerebrovascular disease. [PDF]
Von Willebrand Factor (VWF) plays a major role in thrombosis and hemostasis and its thrombogenicity is controlled by ADAMTS13. Whereas increasing evidence shows a clear association between VWF levels and acute ischemic stroke, little is known about a ...

Rituximab induced pulmonary edema managed with extracorporeal life support [PDF]
Though rare, rituximab has been reported to induce severe pulmonary edema. We describe the first report of ECLS utilization for this indication. A 31-year-old female with severe thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura developed florid pulmonary edema after ...

ADAMTS13 conformations and mechanism of inhibition in immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
ADAMTS13, a plasma metalloprotease that cleaves von Willebrand factor, is crucial for normal hemostasis. Acquired autoantibody‐mediated deficiency of plasma ADAMTS13 results in a potentially fatal blood disorder, immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic ...

Genetic variants in ADAMTS13 as well as smoking are major determinants of plasma ADAMTS13 levels
: The metalloprotease ADAMTS13 cleaves von Willebrand factor (VWF) in circulating blood, limiting the size of VWF multimers and regulating VWF activity. Abnormal regulation of VWF contributes to bleeding and to thrombotic disorders.
