Von Willebrand's syndrome. Studies on a variant factor VIII. 1976

F G Hill, and M C Chan, and R M Hardisty

A girl with symptoms of von Willebrand's disease was found to have a slightly reduced or normal FVIII procoagulant activity, normal FVIII-related antigen (VIIIR:AG) and virtually absent von Willebrand's factor. The electrophoretic mobility of the VIIIR:AG in this patient's plasma and plasma fractions was increased and has been compared with that of two reported patients with FVIII variants. Her lysed platelets contained increased amounts of VIIIR:AG which had an increased anodal migration identical to her plasma VIIIR:AG. Experiments involving the selective absorption of a rabbit antiserum with the patient's plasma provide evidence that VIIIR:AG and von Willebrand's factor are immunologically distinct.

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
D011232 Chemical Precipitation The formation of a solid in a solution as a result of a chemical reaction or the aggregation of soluble substances into complexes large enough to fall out of solution. Precipitation, Chemical

D003450 Cryoglobulins Abnormal immunoglobulins, especially IGG or IGM, that precipitate spontaneously when SERUM is cooled below 37 degrees Celsius. It is characteristic of CRYOGLOBULINEMIA. Cryoglobulin,Cryoprotein,Cryoproteins
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.
