Von Willebrand disease associated with familial thrombocytopenia and increased ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation. 1981

H Takahashi, and R Nagayama, and A Hattori, and T Ihzumi, and T Tsukada, and A Shibata

Two cases of von Willebrand disease (vWD) associated with familial thrombocytopenia were reported. The proband (daughter) and her father showed thrombocytopenia with large platelets and decreased von Willebrand factor activity (VIIIR:WF). Factor VIII procoagulant activity (VIII:C) and factor VIII-related antigen (VIIIR:AG) were normal, but both patients revealed an increased ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation and a qualitative abnormality of the factor VIII protein, which was characterized by fast electrophoretic mobility of VIIIR:AG and an abnormal elution of factor VIII-related activities on Sepharose 2B. DDAVP was hemostatically effective even in this thrombocytopenic patient undergoing a dental extraction.

D010974 Platelet Aggregation The attachment of PLATELETS to one another. This clumping together can be induced by a number of agents (e.g., THROMBIN; COLLAGEN) and is part of the mechanism leading to the formation of a THROMBUS. Aggregation, Platelet
D001792 Blood Platelets Non-nucleated disk-shaped cells formed in the megakaryocyte and found in the blood of all mammals. They are mainly involved in blood coagulation. Platelets,Thrombocytes,Blood Platelet,Platelet,Platelet, Blood,Platelets, Blood,Thrombocyte
D002648 Child A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL. Children
D005169 Factor VIII Factor VIII of blood coagulation. Antihemophilic factor that is part of the factor VIII/von Willebrand factor complex. Factor VIII is produced in the liver and acts in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. It serves as a cofactor in factor X activation and this action is markedly enhanced by small amounts of thrombin.

D012310 Ristocetin An antibiotic mixture of two components, A and B, obtained from Nocardia lurida (or the same substance produced by any other means). It is no longer used clinically because of its toxicity. It causes platelet agglutination and blood coagulation and is used to assay those functions in vitro. Ristomycin
