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 ...

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.

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.

Recombinant ADAMTS13 in Congenital Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) results from severe hereditary deficiency of ADAMTS13. The efficacy and safety of recombinant ADAMTS13 and standard therapy (plasma-derived products) administered as routine prophylaxis ...

The emerging concept of residual ADAMTS13 activity in ADAMTS13-deficient thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura [PDF]
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare, life-threatening disease characterized by acute episodes of widespread microvascular thrombosis. The discovery that the plasmatic activity of the von Willebrand factor cleaving protease, ADAMTS13, is ...

Development of a protease-resistant ADAMTS13 to improve stability against proteolytic degradation
: Recombinant ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) was recently approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of heritable thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, and preclinical ...
