Insights Into Immunothrombosis: The Interplay Among Neutrophil Extracellular Trap, von Willebrand Factor, and ADAMTS13

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
Both neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and von Willebrand factor (VWF) are essential for thrombosis and inflammation. During these processes, a complex series of events, including endothelial activation, NET formation, VWF secretion, and blood cell ...

Degradation of two novel congenital TTP ADAMTS13 mutants by the cell proteasome prevents ADAMTS13 secretion [PDF]

, 2016
INTRODUCTION: Over 150 mutations have been identified in the ADAMTS13 gene in patients with congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). The majority of these (86%), lead to reduced (

Laboratory testing for ADAMTS13: Utility for TTP diagnosis/exclusion and beyond

American journal of hematology/oncology, 2021
The metalloproteinase ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13), also known as VWF (von Willebrand factor) protease, may be assessed in a vast array of clinical conditions.

ADAMTS13 activity as a novel risk factor for incident type 2 diabetes mellitus: a population-based cohort study [PDF]

, 2016
Aims/hypothesis: ADAMTS13 is a protease that breaks down von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers into smaller, less active particles. VWF has been associated with an increased risk of incident type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Von Willebrand factor and ADAMTS13 activity as clinical severity markers in patients with COVID-19

Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis, 2021
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) increases thrombotic risk. The mechanisms that lead to this prothrombotic state are not well established. The main aim was to evaluate the von Willebrand factor (VWF) antigen and plasma ADAMTS13 activity as ...

Evidence for a role of anti-ADAMTS13 autoantibodies despite normal ADAMTS13 activity in recurrent thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura

Haematologica, 2012
Background Severe ADAMTS13 deficiency is a critical component of the pathogenesis of idiopathic thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura but is found only in about 60% of patients clinically diagnosed with this disease.Design and Methods Over a period of 8 ...

Crystal structure of ADAMTS13 CUB domains reveals their role in global latency

Science Advances, 2021
The crystal structure of the ADAMTS13 tandem CUB1 and CUB2 domains reveals how protease global latency is conferred. ADAMTS13 is a plasma metalloprotease that is essential for the regulation of von Willebrand factor (VWF) function, mediator of platelet ...

ADAMTS13 activity and antigen during therapy and follow-up of patients with idiopathic thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura: correlation with clinical outcome

Haematologica, 2011
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 ...

ADAMTS13 ameliorates inflammatory responses in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2020
Background ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) plays a vital role in preventing microvascular thrombosis and inflammation.

ADAMTS13 in pediatric sepsis: a prognostic biomarker with potential therapeutic implications

Egyptian Pediatric Association Gazette, 2023
Background Growing evidence implicates a pro-thrombotic state, caused by ADAMTS13 deficiency, in sepsis-associated organ dysfunction, but pediatric data is limited.
