Aim : Type 3 von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the most severe form of VWD, characterized by a near-total absence of von Willebrand factor (vWF) leading to a huge deficiency in plasmatic factor VIII (FVIII). VWD may be confused with hemophilia A, sometimes

ABSTRACT Background Cardiovascular therapeutic devices typically require systemic heparin due to underlying thrombotic risk. The Impella axial flow system further relies on internal perfusion with either a heparin‐containing or sodium bicarbonate purge solution during operation.

ADAMTS‐13 and von Willebrand factor: a dynamic duo
von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a key player in hemostasis, acting as a carrier for factor VIII and capturing platelets at sites of vascular damage.

Characterization of the defect of the factor VIII/von Willebrand factor protein in von Willebrand's disease [PDF]
Abstract The factor VIII/von Willebrand factor (f.VIII/vWf) protein was purified from the plasma of a patient with von Willebrand's disease (vWd). The patient had all of the classic laboratory findings of vWd except for the ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation of his own platelet-rich plasma.

A perfect storm : polycystic ovary syndrome masking underlying yype 1 Von Willebrand disease [PDF]
Von Willebrand Disease (vWD) is the most common inherited bleeding diathesis worldwide and results in defects in von Willebrand Factor (vWF), inducing a hypocoagulable state.

Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (cTTP) is an ultra‐rare, potentially life‐threatening condition caused by a deficiency of the blood enzyme ADAMTS13. Until now, ADAMTS13 replacement has been achieved with infusions of plasma or plasma‐based therapies (PBT).

Diagnostic Value of Measuring Platelet Von Willebrand Factor in Von Willebrand Disease. [PDF]
Von Willebrand disease (VWD) may be caused by an impaired von Willebrand factor (VWF) synthesis, its increased clearance or abnormal function, or combinations of these factors.

von Willebrand factor biosynthesis, secretion, and clearance: connecting the far ends.
To understand the placement of a certain protein in a physiological system and the pathogenesis of related disorders, it is not only of interest to determine its function but also important to describe the sequential steps in its life cycle, from ...

Endothelial cell synthesis of von Willebrand antigen II, von Willebrand factor, and von Willebrand factor/von Willebrand antigen II complex. [PDF]
von Willebrand antigen II (vW AgII) and von Willebrand factor (vWf) are immunochemically distinct proteins that are deficient in the plasma and platelets of patients with severe von Willebrand's disease. Normal human umbilical vein endothelial cells were cultured in the presence of [35S]methionine.
