0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Unlike acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura or haemolytic uraemic syndrome, which are often intractable, thrombotic microangiopathy in patients with Upshaw-Schulman syndrome (USS)--a congenital deficiency of von Willebrand factor-cleaving protease (ADAMTS13) activity--responds very well to plasma infusion and does not even require plasma exchange. 16449289 2006
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, acquired
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE We applied the Impact-R system [Cone and plate(let) Analyzer, CPA] to determine optimal conditions for ADAMTS-13 function, to assess it's activity in TTP patients and to distinguish inherited TTP (inTTP) from acquired TTP (acTTP). 16894459 2006
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, acquired
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE ADAMTS13 was not detected in the plasma from patients with congenital TTP (n = 5) by either antibody, whereas patients with acquired TTP (n = 2) presented the normal phenotype. 17187257 2007

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, acquired
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Congenital TTP occurs due to ADAMTS13 mutations, with the usual debut occurring during the first years of life, while acquired TTP is associated with auto-antibodies against ADAMTS13. 18807073 2009
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, acquired
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE We now show that replacement of R660, Y661, or Y665 with alanine in ADAMTS13 reduced/abolished the binding of 2 previously isolated human monoclonal antibodies and polyclonal antibodies derived from plasma of 6 patients with acquired TTP. 20032502 2010
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, acquired
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Deficiency of ADAMTS13, due to autoimmune inhibitors in patients with acquired TTP and mutations of the ADAMTS13 gene in hereditary cases, leads to VWF-platelet aggregation and microvascular thrombosis of TTP. 20058209 2010
