ADAMTS13 Biomarkers in Management of Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura.
CONTEXT.— Immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is a rare but potentially fatal blood disorder resulting from acquired deficiency of plasma ADAMTS13, a metalloprotease that cleaves endothelium-derived ultralarge von Willebrand factor ...

AFM Imaging Reveals Multiple Conformational States of ADAMTS13
Background ADAMTS13 (A disintegrin and metalloprotease with a thrombospondin type 1 motif 13) cleaves Von Willebrand factor (VWF) to regulate its size, thereby preventing aberrant platelet aggregation and thrombus. Deficiency of ADAMTS13 caused by either

Contribution of ADAMTS13‐independent VWF regulation in sickle cell disease
Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is elevated in sickle cell disease (SCD) and contributes to vaso‐occlusion through its thrombogenic properties. VWF is regulated by ADAMTS13, a plasma protease that cleaves VWF into less bioactive multimers.

Critically ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) are prone to developing macrothrombosis and microthrombosis. COVID‐19 has been reported to be rarely associated with thrombotic microangiopathies.

Association between ADAMTS13 deficiency and cardiovascular events in chronic hemodialysis patients
A mild decrease of ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospodin type 1 motif 13) could attribute to stroke and coronary heart disease in general population.

Predictive features of severe acquired ADAMTS13 deficiency in idiopathic thrombotic microangiopathies: the French TMA reference center experience. [PDF]
Severe ADAMTS13 deficiency occurs in 13% to 75% of thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA). In this context, the early identification of a severe, antibody-mediated, ADAMTS13 deficiency may allow to start targeted therapies such as B-lymphocytes-depleting ...

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 ...

Background The mechanisms behind residual platelet reactivity (RPR) despite aspirin treatment are not established. It has been shown that coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with high on-aspirin RPR have elevated levels of von Willebrand factor (vWF).
