Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis
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

PROTEOLYTIC PROCESSING OF VON WILLEBRAND FACTOR BY ADAMTS13 AND LEUKOCYTE PROTEASES
ADAMTS13 is a 190 kDa zinc protease encoded by a gene located on chromosome 9q34. This protease specifically hydrolyzes von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers, thus causing VWF size reduction.

Plasma ADAMTS13 activity in healthy dogs and dogs with chronic enteropathy
Objectives A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13 is a von Willebrand factor cleaving enzyme that is associated with prothrombotic/hypercoagulable states in humans. In people, A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13 activity is reduced with inflammatory bowel disease ...

Detection of Plasma Protease Activity Using Microsphere-Cytometry Assays with E. coli Derived Substrates: VWF Proteolysis by ADAMTS13. [PDF]
Protease levels in human blood are often prognostic indicators of inflammatory, thrombotic or oncogenic disorders. The measurement of such enzyme activities in substrate-based assays is complicated due to the low prevalence of these enzymes and steric ...
