von Willebrand factor biosynthesis, secretion, and clearance: connecting the far ends.

open access: yesBlood, 2015
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 ...

Characterization of the defect of the factor VIII/von Willebrand factor protein in von Willebrand's disease [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1982
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.

Endothelial cell synthesis of von Willebrand antigen II, von Willebrand factor, and von Willebrand factor/von Willebrand antigen II complex. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1985
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.

ADAMTS‐13 and von Willebrand factor predict venous thromboembolism in patients with cancer

open access: yesJournal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2016
Essentials Cancer patients are at high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). In this study, cases and controls were cancer patients who did or did not develop VTE.

Conformational dynamics of charged polymers interacting with charged nanoparticles [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
The transition from globular to elongated states of biopolymers in shear flow occurs at a distinct critical shear rate, $\dot{\gamma }^{*}$. The magnitude of $\dot{\gamma }^{*}$ depends on the internal potential and the polymer length. For example, the critical shear is much larger for von Willebrand Factor (vWF) compared to DNA.

ADAMTS13 and von Willebrand factor in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Medicine, 2015
Pathogenesis of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) was a mystery for over half a century until the discovery of ADAMTS13. ADAMTS13 is primarily synthesized in the liver, and its main function is to cleave von Willebrand factor (VWF) anchored on ...

Folding of Pig Gastric Mucin Non-glycosylated Domains: A Discrete Molecular Dynamics Study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
Mucin glycoprotein consist of tandem repeating glycosylated regions flanked by non-repetitive protein domains with little glycosylation. These non-repetitive domains are involved in the pH dependent gelation of gastric mucin, which is essential to protecting the stomach from autodigestion.

Hemostatic efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of a recombinant von Willebrand factor in severe von Willebrand disease.

open access: yesBlood, 2015
This phase 3 trial evaluated the safety and hemostatic efficacy of a recombinant von Willebrand factor (rVWF) for treatment of bleeds in severe von Willebrand disease (VWD).

Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosed in a Woman With Von-Willebrand Disease: A Case Report

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Neurological Sciences, 2022
Background: Von-Willebrand Disease (VWD) is the most common inherited bleeding disorder with an autosomal inheritance pattern. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disease, causing neurodegeneration and demyelination of the central nervous system ...
