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 ...

Novel ADAMTS13 mutations in an obstetric patient with upshaw-schulman syndrome [PDF]
Upshaw-Schulman syndrome (USS) is a rarely reported congenital form of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) that results from mutations in the ADAMTS13 gene.

In this study, we investigated a case of pregnancy-onset thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). The patient had severely decreased ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) activity levels during acute ...

Novel cryptic ADAMTS13 epitopes uncover a distinct open ADAMTS13 conformation in immune-mediated TTP
Open ADAMTS13 conformation is gaining clinical interest as a biomarker for diagnosing immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) and monitoring remission patients for increased relapse risks.

ABSTRACT Immune‐mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is a life‐threatening thrombotic microangiopathy characterized by acute neurological manifestations and long‐term sequelae related to microvascular brain injury. Cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD), detectable on MRI through lacunes, microbleeds, white matter hyperintensities, and ...

The relationship between ADAMTS13 genotype and phenotype in congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and characterisation of ADAMTS13 mutants [PDF]
Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a thrombotic microangiopathy, usually involving ADAMTS13 gene defects. ADAMTS13 processes the multimeric plasma glycoprotein Von Willebrand factor making it less reactive to platelets.

Background The assay for ADAMTS13 activity helps clinicians to confirm the clinical diagnosis of idiopathic thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. The clinical value of testing for the antigen level of ADAMTS13 protein is, however, less clear.Design and ...

Von Willebrand Factor, ADAMTS13 and D-Dimer Are Correlated with Different Levels of Nephropathy in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. [PDF]
We have investigated whether von Willebrand factor, ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13), and D-Dimer were associated with different levels of renal function in patients with type 1 diabetes. Patients

ADAMTS13 activity in sickle cell disease
Sickle red blood cell (SRBC)-endothelial adhesion plays a central role in sickle cell disease (SCD)-related vaso-occlusion. As unusually large von Willebrand factor (ULVWF) multimers mediate SRBC-endothelial adhesion, we investigated the activity of ...
