Physician decision making in selection of second-line treatments in immune thrombocytopenia in children. [PDF]

, 2018
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an acquired autoimmune bleeding disorder which presents with isolated thrombocytopenia and risk of hemorrhage. While most children with ITP promptly recover with or without drug therapy, ITP is persistent or chronic in ...

Open ADAMTS13, induced by antibodies, is a biomarker for subclinical immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.

Blood, 2020
Recently, we showed that during the acute phase of immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP), ADAMTS13 circulates in an open conformation. Although the cause of this conformational change in acute iTTP remains elusive, ADAMTS13 is mainly

Platelet Apoptosis in Adult Immune Thrombocytopenia: Insights into the Mechanism of Damage Triggered by Auto-antibodies [PDF]

, 2016
Mechanisms leading to decreased platelet count in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) are heterogeneous. This study describes increased platelet apoptosis involving loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), caspase 3 activation (aCasp3) and ...
