VWF:Ag levels were measured using immunoturbidometric assay (HemosIL von Willebrand Factor Antigen, Instrumentation Laboratory, Bedford, MA). Platelet-dependent VWF activity was measured using VWF:GPIbR (HemosIL von Willebrand Factor Ristocetin Cofactor Activity, Instrumentation Laboratory, Bedford, MA). FVIII clotting activity (FVIII:C) was assessed using a 1-stage assay and VWF collagen binding (VWF:CB) with collagen type I, III, or a combination of thereof using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method.12 (link) VWF multimer analysis was performed using a semiautomatic Hydrasys 2 scan (Sebia, Lisses, France), and we used the HYDRAGEL 5 von WILLEBRAND MULTIMERS kit.13 (link) A commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit (Sanquin, Amsterdam, The Netherlands) was used to measure the VWF propeptide (VWFpp) antigen.14 (link) To evaluate the synthesis and secretion of VWF we used the FVIII:C/VWF:Ag ratio and VWFpp.14 (link) VWF clearance was assessed using the VWFpp/VWF:Ag ratio with a ratio exceeding 1.6 considered an indicator of accelerated clearance.15 (link)

Plasma levels of soluble C5b-9 (SC5b-9) were measured as a marker of complement activation using a solid-phase assay (MicroVue Complement SC5b-9 Plus EIA kit, Quidel Corporation, San Diego, CA, USA) whose intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation (CVs) were, respectively, 6.8% and 13.1%; the lower detection limit was 3.7 ng/mL.
D-dimer levels were measured as markers of coagulation activation via automated latex agglutination tests using anti-D-dimer monoclonal antibodies according to Kumano et al. [22 (link)]. The intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation were lower than 3.8%.
Plasma levels of von Willebrand factor (vWF) antigen were measured as markers of endothelial activation using a commercial method (HemosIL Von Willebrand Factor Antigen, Instrumentation Laboratory, Bedford, MA, USA) with intra- and inter-assay CVs of <2.3%; the lower detection limit was 2.2%.

Plasma levels of von Willebrand factor (vWF) antigen were measured using a commercial method (HemosIL Von Willebrand Factor Antigen, Instrumentation Laboratory, Bedford, MA, USA) with intra- and inter-assay CVs of <2.3%; the lower detection limit was 2.2%.
Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) antigen was measured in plasma using a commercially available ELISA (Zymutest t-PA antigen, Hyphen BioMed, Neuville sur Oise, France) in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The intra- and inter-assay CVs were <10%, and the lower detection limit was 0.5 ng/mL.
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) antigen was measured in plasma using a commercially available ELISA (Zymutest PAI-1 antigen, Hyphen BioMed) whose intra- and inter-assay CVs were 8% and 13%, respectively; the lower detection limit was 0.5 ng/mL.
Soluble plasma thrombomodulin (sTM) plasma levels were measured using a commercial sandwich ELISA (Human Thrombomodulin/BDCA-3 Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) whose intra- and inter-assay CVs were both <10%; the lower detection limit was 7.82 pg/mL.
Soluble endothelial selectin (sE-selectin) was measured in plasma using a sandwich ELISA (Human sE-Selectin/CD62E Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D Systems Inc.) whose intra- and inter-assay CVs were respectively 5% and 8.8%; the lower detection limit was 0.009 ng/mL.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
