S109 Adamts13 protein levels are decreased in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension and implicated in its pathobiology [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in understanding chronic thrombo-embolic disease and pulmonary hypertension, 2017
Introduction Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) Results from failure of thrombus resolution following acute pulmonary embolism. Abnormalities in haemostasis are implicated in the pathobiology, including elevated levels of von Willebrand factor (VWF), which is normally regulated by ADAMTS13.

ADAMTS13 inhibits H2O2-induced human venous endothelial cell injury to attenuate deep-vein thrombosis by blocking the p38/ERK signaling pathway

open access: yesChinese Journal of Physiology, 2023
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common complication in hematologic malignancies and immunologic disorders. Endothelial cell injury and dysfunction comprise the critical contributor for the development of DVT.

Escherichia coli-derived von Willebrand factor-A2 domain fluorescence/Förster resonance energy transfer proteins that quantify ADAMTS13 activity [PDF]

open access: yesAnalytical Biochemistry, 2011
The cleavage of the A2 domain of von Willebrand factor (VWF) by the metalloprotease ADAMTS13 regulates VWF size and platelet thrombosis rates. Reduction or inhibition of this enzyme activity leads to thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). We generated a set of novel molecules called VWF-A2 FRET (fluorescence/Förster resonance energy transfer ...

Probing ADAMTS13 substrate specificity using phage display. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large, multimeric protein that regulates hemostasis by tethering platelets to the subendothelial matrix at sites of vascular damage.

Phenotypic expression of ADAMTS13 in glomerular endothelial cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundADAMTS13 is the physiological von Willebrand factor (VWF)-cleaving protease. The aim of this study was to examine ADAMTS13 expression in kidneys from ADAMTS13 wild-type (Adamts13⁺/⁺) and deficient (Adamts13⁻/⁻) mice and to investigate the ...

Von Willebrand factor, ADAMTS13 and mortality in dialysis patients

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2021
Background Von Willebrand Factor (VWF) multimers are cleaved into smaller and less coagulant forms by the metalloprotease ADAMTS13. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between VWF and ADAMTS13 and mortality in dialysis patients ...

Effect of plasma exchange on COVID-19 associated excess of von Willebrand factor and inflammation in critically ill patients

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Ubiquitous microthromboses in the pulmonary vasculature play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of COVID-19 associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Excess of Willebrand factor (vWf) with intravascular multimer formation was identified as a

Deficiency of complement factor H-related proteins and autoantibody-positive hemolytic uremic syndrome in an infant with combined partial deficiencies and autoantibodies to complement factor H and ADAMTS13 [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Kidney Journal, 2018
A 3-month-old male infant developed an extremely severe episode of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) associated with partial deficiencies of full-length complement factor H (FH; ∼15% of infant normal) and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13 (ADAMTS13) (39% of normal) and autoantibodies reactive with

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

open access: yesEuropean 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

Three disintegrin-like domain mutations of ADAMTS13: functional deficiency and association with thrombosis [PDF]

open access: yesZhenduanxue lilun yu shijian
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 ...
