The functions of the A1A2A3 domains in von Willebrand factor include multimerin 1 binding. [PDF]
Multimerin 1 (MMRN1) is a massive, homopolymeric protein that is stored in platelets and endothelial cells for activation-induced release. In vitro, MMRN1 binds to the outer surfaces of activated platelets and endothelial cells, the extracellular matrix (

Acquired von Willebrand disease as a cause of recurrent mucocutaneous bleeding in primary thrombocythemia: Relationship with platelet count [PDF]
We present a 4-year follow-up of a 42-year-old patient with primary thrombocythemia whose clinical course was complicated by two major mucocutaneous bleeding episodes.

Platelet Dysfunction in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: Does Imatinib Mesylate Improve It?
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of imatinib mesylate on platelet aggregation and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release in chronic myeloid leukemia patients. METHODS: Platelet aggregation and ATP release induced by 5.0 mM

Von Willebrand disease type 2B with a novel mutation in the VWF gene
We report a 38-year-old woman who presented with a subdural hematoma after minor facial trauma in a stressful situation. The laboratory data showed a subnormal platelet count (166×109/L), VWF:RCo activity was 45% and VWF:Ag was 53% with a VWF:RCo/VWF Ag ...

The aptamer BT200 blocks von Willebrand factor and platelet function in blood of stroke patients
The effect of conventional anti-platelet agents is limited in secondary stroke prevention, and their effects are blunted under high shear stress in the presence of increased levels of circulating von Willebrand factor (VWF). VWF is critically involved in

Identification and characterisation of mutations associated with von Willebrand disease in a Turkish patient cohort [PDF]
Several cohort studies have investigated the molecular basis of von Willebrand disease (VWD); however, these have mostly focused on European and North American populations.

ABSTRACT Introduction Jacobsen syndrome, resulting from a terminal deletion of chromosome 11 (11q), may lead to an increased bleeding tendency due to low platelet counts or platelet dysfunction. Currently, information on bleeding tendency and platelet function in patients with nonterminal 11q‐aberrations such as larger deletions, interstitial 11q ...
