Abstract:
A deficient of plasma VW factor-cleaving protease (ADAMTS13) and appearance of unusually large multimers induced platelets aggregation in capillaries and arterioles. It was critical pathogenesis of thrombotic thrombocytopenia purpura (TTP). ADAMTS13 activity has been measured over 1000patients of TTP and hemolysis uremia syndrome (HUS) since 1997. Diagnostic sensitivity and specificity,as well as clinical significance of ADAMTS13 deficiency for TTP patients were evaluated,and synthetical diagnosis basis of TTP were raised.
