Mechanochemistry of von Willebrand factor [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2019
Von Willebrand factor (VWF), a blood multimeric protein with a very high molecular weight, plays a crucial role in the primary haemostasis, the physiological process characterized by the adhesion of blood platelets to the injured vessel wall ...

Von Willebrand factor [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Medicine, 2020
Editor – Ladikou et al have elegantly shown in their series that levels of factor VIII and von Willebrand factor (VWF) are markedly raised in patients with COVID-19 and that there is a reduced level of ADAMTS13 which may be secondary to depletion of the enzyme through consumption.[1][1 ...

Carbohydrate of the Factor VIII/von Willebrand Factor in von Willebrand's Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1979
We have examined the plasma Factor VIII/von Willebrand factor (FVIII/vWF) molecule from 16 patients with von Willebrand's disease, and have found no evidence of a significant decrease of carbohydrate content in 15 of these patients. FVIII/vWF was isolated by preparative counter immunoelectrophoresis directly from plasma using antibody to Factor VIII ...

von Willebrand factor. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1997
The adhesive protein von Willebrand factor contributes to platelet function by mediating the initiation and progression of thrombus formation at sites of vascular injury. In the last 2 years, there has been considerable progress in explaining the biologic properties of von Willebrand factor.

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Principles of care for the diagnosis and treatment of von Willebrand disease

open access: yesHaematologica, 2013
Von Willebrand disease is a common autosomal inherited bleeding disorder caused by quantitative or qualitative defects of von Willebrand factor, a multi-adhesive protein that binds platelets to exposed subendothelium and carries factor VIII in ...

The Molecular Genetics of von Willebrand Disease

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Hematology, 2012
Quantitative and/or qualitative deficiency of von Willebrand factor (vWF) is associated with the most common inherited bleeding disease von Willebrand disease (vWD). vWD is a complex disease with clinical and genetic heterogeneity.

Levels of von Willebrand factor antigen and von Willebrand factor cleaving protease (ADAMTS13) activity predict clinical events in chronic heart failure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Decreased activity of ADAMTS13, the von Willebrand factor (VWF) cleaving protease, was recently reported in cardiovascular diseases and in hepatic failure.

ON THE VERSATILITY OF VON WILLEBRAND FACTOR

open access: yesMediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2013
Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large multimeric protein, the function of which has been demonstrated to be pivotal to the haemostatic system. Indeed, quantitative and/or qualitative abnormalities of VWF are associated with the bleeding disorder Von Willebrand disease (VWD).
