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

Special delivery for ADAMTS13 [PDF]
In this issue of Blood, using a transgenic mouse model, Pickens et al describe that ectopic expression of ADAMTS13, exclusively in platelets, is able to provide effective protection in murine models of arterial thrombosis and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP ...

Anti-ADAMTS13 autoantibodies are the main cause of acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Binding of these antibodies to ADAMTS13 eventually results in the formation of antigen-antibody immune complexes.

ADAMTS13 in pediatric sepsis: a prognostic biomarker with potential therapeutic implications
Background Growing evidence implicates a pro-thrombotic state, caused by ADAMTS13 deficiency, in sepsis-associated organ dysfunction, but pediatric data is limited.

GWA study for ADAMTS13 activity [PDF]
In this issue of Blood , [de Vries et al][1] report the contribution of genetic variants to plasma ADAMTS13 (disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 13) activity with a hypothesis-free genome-wide association (GWA) approach using the Rotterdam Study, a large population ...

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

Factor XI/ADAMTS13 complexes are quantitatively insignificant in human plasma [PDF]
Reportedly, complexes between factor XI and ADAMTS13 are detected with a commercial ADAMTS13/FXI ELISA kit in plasma and are decreased in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP).

Elevated plasma neutrophil elastase concentration is associated with disease activity in patients with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Genetic and autoimmune risk factors contribute to the development of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) but triggers are needed to bring about acute disease.
