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]
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

The Intriguing Relationships of von Willebrand Factor, ADAMTS13 and Cardiac Disease
von Willebrand factor (VWF) is an adhesive protein involved in primary hemostasis and facilitates platelet adhesion to sites of vascular injury, thereby promoting thrombus formation. VWF exists in plasma as multimers of increasing size, with the largest (

Perinatal outcomes in normotensive versus hypertensive HELLP syndrome
Abstract Objective To compare maternal and neonatal outcomes between women with hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets (HELLP) syndrome with and without associated hypertension. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study at a tertiary university‐affiliated medical center including all singleton HELLP cases >24 weeks gestation (January ...

The relationship between ADAMTS13 genotype and phenotype in congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and characterisation of ADAMTS13 mutants [PDF]
Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a thrombotic microangiopathy, usually involving ADAMTS13 gene defects. ADAMTS13 processes the multimeric plasma glycoprotein Von Willebrand factor making it less reactive to platelets.

Antibodies that conformationally activate ADAMTS13 allosterically enhance metalloprotease domain function [PDF]
Plasma ADAMTS13 circulates in a folded conformation that is stabilized by an interaction between the central Spacer domain and the C-terminal CUB (complement components C1r and C1s, sea urchin protein Uegf, and bone morphogenetic protein-1) domains ...

Thirty five novel nsSNPs may effect on ADAMTS13 protein leading to Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) using bioinformatics approach [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Genetic polymorphisms in the ADAMTS13 gene are associated with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura or TTP, a life-threatening microangiopathic disorder.

Von Willebrand Factor and ADAMTS13
Objective— The goal of this study was to search for an association between a desintegrin-like and metalloprotease thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13 (ADAMTS13) levels and the occurrence of preeclampsia, its characteristics ...

ABSTRACT Despite disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) sharing features of thrombocytopenia, organ dysfunction, and bleeding, the relationship between these two conditions remains unclear. We therefore conducted a post hoc analysis of post‐marketing surveillance data from Japan to evaluate the clinical ...
