Common Hematologic Emergencies—Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia and Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemias—A Pivotal Role of Clinical Laboratory

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hematologic emergencies are urgent health conditions which result in significant mortality and morbidity unless timely therapeutic measures are taken. Therapeutic success depends on their timely and accurate recognition by hematology laboratory services.

Open or closed? Understanding the molecular mechanisms and clinical implications of ADAMTS13's conformation

HemaSphere
By proteolyzing prothrombotic von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers, ADAMTS13 (A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase with ThromboSpondin type‐1 repeats, member 13) ensures balanced hemostasis and prevents microvascular thrombosis. ADAMTS13's conformational

Development of a protease-resistant ADAMTS13 to improve stability against proteolytic degradation

Blood Advances
: 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 ...

Generation and validation of small ADAMTS13 fragments for epitope mapping of anti‐ADAMTS13 autoantibodies in immune‐mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2020
Background In immune‐mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP), patients develop an immune response against the multidomain enzyme ADAMTS13.

Disappearing acts of ADAMTS13

EBioMedicine, 2015
The study by Thomas and co-workers in this issue of EBioMedicine provides detailed characteristics on the pathogenic properties of antibodies that develop in patients with acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) (Thomas et al., 2015). It is now well-established that TTP is due to dysregulation of primary hemostasis. A crucial initial step in

Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

Optimization of plasma-based BioID identifies plasminogen as a ligand of ADAMTS13

Scientific Reports
ADAMTS13, a disintegrin and metalloprotease with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13, regulates the length of Von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers and their platelet-binding activity. ADAMTS13 is constitutively secreted as an active protease and is

Von Willebrand Factor and ADAMTS13 in COVID-19 and Beyond: A Question of Balance

European Medical Journal Nephrology, 2021
von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large, adhesive, multimeric protein involved in haemostasis. The larger the size (or number of VWF multimers), the greater the functionality of the protein. A deficiency or defect in VWF can lead to von Willebrand disease

ADAMTS13 activity decreases in the early phase of trauma associated with coagulopathy and systemic inflammation: a prospective observational study

Thrombosis Journal, 2021
Background We conducted a prospective observational study for investigating the changes in the 13th member of a disintegrin-like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 motif (ADAMTS13) and its association with the coagulofibrinolytic response in ...

Thrombotic microangiopathies: thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura / hemolytic uremic syndrome [PDF]

, 2010
Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMAs) are pathological conditions characterized by generalized microvascular occlusion by platelet thrombi, thrombocytopenia, and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia.
