Contribution of the von Willebrand factor/ADAMTS13 imbalance to COVID-19 coagulopathy
The 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. Although this infection has been shown to affect the respiratory system, a high incidence of thrombotic events has been observed in severe cases of COVID-19 and in a ...

A conformation-sensitive monoclonal antibody against the A2 domain of von Willebrand factor reduces its proteolysis by ADAMTS13. [PDF]
The size of von Willebrand factor (VWF), controlled by ADAMTS13-dependent proteolysis, is associated with its hemostatic activity. Many factors regulate ADAMTS13-dependent VWF proteolysis through their interaction with VWF.

BACKGROUND: In Saudi Arabia (KSA) and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), only limited epidemiological data and treatment guidance exist for acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP), a rare, life-threatening blood disorder.

Severe COVID‐19 is often compounded by a prothrombotic state that is associated with poor outcomes. In this investigation, we aimed to evaluate ADAMTS13 activity, von Willebrand factor level (VWF:Ag), and the corresponding ADAMTS13 activity/VWF:Ag ratio,

In this study, we investigated a case of pregnancy-onset thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). The patient had severely decreased ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) activity levels during acute ...

Background Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a life‐threatening thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) caused by a severe functional deficiency in ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type I repeats‐13), the specific von ...

Plasma and rhADAMTS13 reduce trauma-induced organ failure by restoring the ADAMTS13-VWF axis.
Trauma-induced organ failure is characterized by endothelial dysfunction. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of von Willebrand factor (VWF) and its cleaving enzyme, ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 ...

Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (cTTP) is an ultra‐rare, potentially life‐threatening condition caused by a deficiency of the blood enzyme ADAMTS13. Until now, ADAMTS13 replacement has been achieved with infusions of plasma or plasma‐based therapies (PBT).

Glycans of plasma ADAMTS13 [PDF]
In this issue of Blood , [Verbij et al][1] identified the sites of glycosylation in plasma ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) and determined the composition of the glycan structures at these sites.[1][2] ADAMTS13 is a blood enzyme ...
