Systemic impact of intramuscular snake envenomation and intravenous immunoglobulin‐based antivenom treatment on murine plasma proteome and peptidome

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Snake envenomation remains a critical global public health challenge. In Brazil, the genus Bothrops is responsible for most accidents, typically resulting in coagulopathy, hemorrhage, and renal failure. Despite its clinical prevalence, the molecular mechanisms driving plasma protein disturbances remain poorly understood.

The ADAMTS131239–1253 peptide is a dominant HLA-DR1-restricted CD4+ T-cell epitope

Haematologica, 2017
Acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is a rare and severe disease characterized by auto-antibodies directed against “A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin type 1 repeats, 13th member" (ADAMTS13), a plasma protein involved in ...

Effect of therapeutic plasma exchange on endothelial activation and coagulation-related parameters in septic shock

Critical Care, 2020
Background A dysbalanced coagulation system is part of the pathological host response to infection in sepsis. Activation of pro-coagulant pathways and attenuation of anti-coagulant activity ultimately lead to microvascular stasis and consequent organ ...

Structural basis of type 2A von Willebrand disease investigated by molecular dynamics simulations and experiments. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The hemostatic function of von Willebrand factor is downregulated by the metalloprotease ADAMTS13, which cleaves at a unique site normally buried in the A2 domain.

ADAMTS13, an Anti-thrombotic Protein: Evidence Outside of Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura

Blood, 2019
von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large multimeric plasma glycoprotein that plays a crucial role in hemostasis and thrombosis. VWF recruits platelets at sites of vascular injury by acting as a molecular bridge between circulating platelets and the site of injured or activated blood vessels.

ADAMTS4 mediates LPS‐induced cardiac injury and myocardial fibrosis through proteolytic cleavage of TSP1

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
• ADAMTS4 is induced primarily in cardiac fibroblasts during sepsis. • ADAMTS4 cleaves TSP1 at the 236–246 aa functional region. • TSP1 cleavage activates TGF‐β/Smad and NF‐κB signalling in fibroblasts. • Targeting ADAMTS4 reduces fibroblast activation and cardiac fibrosis.

Shear‐Activated von Willebrand Factor Captures Extracellular Vesicles to Promote Platelet Activation and Metastasis

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
Under shear flow, stretched vWF captures platelets and EVs, and TF‐positive EVs amplify platelet activation and aggregation. Although tumour cells do not bind vWF directly, the resulting microthrombi trap circulating tumour cells and promote metastatic progression.

Anti-ADAMTS13 Autoantibodies in Immune-Mediated Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura

Antibodies
Autoantibodies to ADAMTS13 are at the center of pathology of the immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. These autoantibodies can be either inhibitory (enzymatic function) or non-inhibitory, resulting in protein depletion.

Proteolysis at the extracellular matrix interface: Molecular architects and regulators in health and disease

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 3758-3787, July 2026.
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic scaffold that orchestrates tissue architecture and cellular communication. A critical but underexplored interplay between proteases and cluster of differentiation molecules (CD) governs ECM turnover and directs cell fate.
