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 ...

BackgroundThe acquired form of idiopathic thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is an autoimmune disease, in which the underlying deficiency of the ADAMTS13 protease is caused by autoantibodies, predominantly of the IgG isotype.

Severe ADAMTS13 deficiency in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is either constitutional and caused by ADAMTS13 mutations, or acquired and most often due to ADAMTS13 inhibitory autoantibodies.

Infection frequently triggers thrombotic microangiopathy in patients with preexisting risk factors : a single-institution experience [PDF]
Thrombotic microangiopathies are rare conditions characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, microthrombi, and multiorgan insult. The disorders, which include hemolytic uremic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, are often acute and ...

ADAMTS13 expression in mouse kidney.
ADAMTS13 expression was investigated by immunohistochemistry in mouse renal tissue. Staining was observed in the kidney of Adamts13+/+ wild-type mice on the mixed 129X1/SvJ and C57BL/6 genetic background (Panel A).

BACKGROUND: Autoantibodies directed towards ADAMTS13 are present in the majority of patients with acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). Analysis of a set of antibodies derived from two patients with acquired TTP revealed frequent use of the

Characterisation of the ADAMTS13 Metalloprotease Domain [PDF]
Von Willebrand Factor (VWF) is a large multi-domain plasma glycoprotein that is critical for normal platelet tethering during haemostasis. ADAMTS13 is a plasma metalloprotease that regulates VWF multimeric size/function by cleaving the Tyr1605-Met1606

Three disintegrin-like domain mutations of ADAMTS13: functional deficiency and association with thrombosis [PDF]
Objective To analyze the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of four thrombotic patients carrying heterozygous mutations in the disintegrin-like domain of ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motifs 13), and to ...
