Von Willebrand factor and platelet adhesiveness.
A modification of Salzman's method has been used in an attempt to provide an assay in vitro for the von Willebrand factor. Platelet adhesiveness was increased in von Willebrand's disease by previously coating the beads with normal or haemophilic plasma or cryoprecipitate, whereas von Willebrand plasma had no corrective effect. Antihaemophilic factor (AHF) concentrates were studied in the same w...
متن کاملRegulation of von Willebrand factor-platelet interactions.
The formation of thrombi is a multistep process involving several components, including von Willebrand factor (VWF). VWF is an adhesive multimeric protein, which acts as a molecular bridge between the subendothelial matrix and the glycoprotein Ib/IX/V receptor complex. Furthermore, VWF promotes the expansion of the platelet plug by cross-linking platelets via binding to integrin alphaIIbbeta3. ...
متن کاملSubcellular platelet factor VIII antigen and von Willebrand factor
Subcellular membrane and granule fractions derived from human platelets contain factor VIIII antigen and von Willebrand factor activity but not factor VII procoagulant activity. Circulating platelets constitute a significant reservoir of plasma factor VIII antigen, containing approximately 15% of the amount of factor VIII antigen present in platelet-poor plasma. The antibiotic ristocetin, which...
متن کاملFactor VIII/von Willebrand factor in subendothelium mediates platelet adhesion.
The present studies were undertaken to determine whether factor VIII/von Willebrand factor (vWF) present in the vessel wall (in addition to that in plasma) may mediate the attachment of platelets to subendothelium. Subendothelium from everted rabbit aorta was exposed to human citrated blood flowing through an annular perfusion chamber at 40 mL/min (wall shear rate of 2,600 s-1 for five minutes)...
متن کاملEffect of Monoclonal Antibodies Against von Willebrand Factor and Platelet
The platelet retention test provides a measure of the number of platelets retained in a column of glass beads and is one of the few in vitro platelet function tests that is abnormal in von Willebrand’s disease (vWd). In a two-stage test, 1 mL of blood (designated A) was passed through the column, followed by 5 mL of isotonic saline and then 5 mL of blood (B) in which platelet retention was meas...
