VWF, Platelets and the Antiphospholipid Syndrome [PDF]
The antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is characterized by thrombosis and/or pregnancy morbidity with the persistent presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs). Laboratory criteria for the classification of APS include the detection of lupus anticoagulant (LAC), anti-cardiolipin (aCL) antibodies and anti-β2glycoprotein I (aβ2GPI) antibodies.

Immunofluorescent staining with vWF. [PDF]
Immunofluorescent staining with vWF showed a decrease in the number of vWF-positive cells in the group with BOO and an increase in vWF-positive cells after transplantation of hMSCs. The effect was enhanced by hMSCs.HGF. The merged cells expressing yellow

Introduction. Currently, endothelial dysfunction caused by inflammation and immunothrombosisis considered as one of the crucial mechanisms in developing the SARS-CoV-2 virus-mediated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). A mass endothelial damage followed

Introduction. Coronavirus infection is associated with severe endotheliopathy, thromboinflammation and immunothrombosis leading to excessive release of von Willebrand factor (vWF) multimers from Weibel–Palade bodies, which can affect activity of ADAMTS ...

ADAMTS13 is a plasma metalloprotease with the primary function of cleaving VWF to maintain hemostasis. Circulating ADAMTS13 is in the closed conformation until blood vessel injury triggers a VWF-dependant activation to the open active form of the protein.

Functioning of the ADAMTS-13/vWF axis and its clinical significance
Advances in biology have allowed us to substantially deepen our knowledge about hemostasis functioning both in health and disease. ADAMTS-13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) and von Willebrand factor (vWF)

Clinical significance of ADAMTS-13/vWF axis in pregnant women at different trimesters of gestation
Introduction. The pandemic of a novel coronavirus infection has demonstrated the importance of assessing the ADAMTS-13/vWF axis in patients with COVID-19, because a decline in this ratio mirrors disease severity.

In this issue of Blood , Feng and coworkers present data suggesting a role for von Willebrand factor (VWF) in the proteolytic inactivation of complement C3b by factor I (CFI).[1][1] Whereas smaller VWF multimers, especially dimers, tetramers, and hexamers, enhance C3b inactivation by CFI, large ...
