Abstract Background Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (cTTP) is a rare autosomal recessive thrombotic microangiopathy caused by biallelic mutations in ADAMTS13, leading to severe enzyme deficiency. The absence of ADAMTS13 prevents cleavage of ultra‐large von Willebrand factor multimers, resulting in platelet‐rich microthrombi formation ...

ABSTRACT Background In humans, deficiency of a disintegrin‐like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 motifs, number 13 (ADAMTS13), a von Willebrand factor (vWF) cleaving protease, is an underlying mechanism for thrombosis. The role of ADAMTS13 in canine thromboembolic disease is largely unknown.

Plasma von Willebrand factor levels predict in-hospital survival in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Circulating levels of von Willebrand factor (vWF) predict mortality in patients with cirrhosis. We hypothesized that systemic inflammation in acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) will stimulate endothelium, increase vWF levels, and ...

Optimization of plasma-based BioID identifies plasminogen as a ligand of ADAMTS13
ADAMTS13, a disintegrin and metalloprotease with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13, regulates the length of Von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers and their platelet-binding activity. ADAMTS13 is constitutively secreted as an active protease and is

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are part of the body's innate immune response. In animal models, NETs aggravated liver injury and promoted disease progression/portal hypertension by the formation of (micro)thrombi leading to parenchymal extinction.

Von Willebrand factor and ADAMTS13 activity in relation to risk of dementia [PDF]
Low ADAMTS13 activity is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, which is generally attributed to its proteolytic effects on Von Willebrand factor (VWF). Cardiovascular health is an important determinant of cognitive decline, but the

Plasma level and clinical significance of ADAMTS13 in patients with primary membrous nephropathy
ObjectivePatients with primary membrous nephropathy (PMN) have an elevated risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The aim of this study was to detect plasma level of ADAMTS13 in PMN patients complicated and uncomplicated by VTE and examine their clinical ...
