Hereditary TTP/Upshaw–Schulman syndrome: the ductus arteriosus controls newborn survival
Hereditary TTP (hTTP), termed Upshaw–Schulman syndrome, is an ultra-rare disorder caused by a severe deficiency of plasma ADAMTS13 activity that...

Regulation of von Willebrand factor by ADAMTS13 ameliorates lipopolysaccharide-induced lung injury in mice
The relationship between von Willebrand factor (VWF) and inflammation has attracted considerable attention in recent years. VWF, which is stored in...

Hemostatic potential of recombinant von Willebrand factor and standard or pegylated extended half-life recombinant factor VIII on thrombus formation under high shear flow
BackgroundVon Willebrand factor (VWF) and factor VIII (FVIII) complex play a pivotal role in hemostasis. A deficiency or defect of VWF causes von...
