Overview
ADAMTS13 is an enzyme (a type of protein) in the blood that plays a crucial role in blood clotting. Specifically, it cleaves von Willebrand factor, a protein involved in clot formation, into smaller pieces. This process helps regulate clotting and prevents the formation of abnormal blood clots. Deficiency or dysfunction of ADAMTS13 can lead to thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP).

Frequently Asked Questions
ADAMTS 13 Autoantibody measures the presence of specific antibodies in your blood that can interfere with a protein critical for preventing excessive blood clotting. These antibodies attack ADAMTS 13, affecting its function and potentially leading to clotting disorders.
This test is done:
- To diagnose thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP)
- To determine the cause of unexplained blood clots
- To monitor patients with TTP during treatment
- To assess the risk of developing TTP in high-risk individuals
Doctors recommend this test if you:
- Show signs of TTP like bruising or bleeding under the skin
- Have a family history of TTP
- Experienced unexplained blood clots or stroke at a young age
- Require monitoring for TTP treatment effectiveness
- Abnormal results may indicate an increased risk of TTP. However, other autoimmune conditions could also be considered.
- Consult your doctor for further evaluation and appropriate management.
During the test:
- A blood sample is collected from a vein in your arm.
- You may feel a slight sting when the needle is inserted.
- The procedure usually takes a few minutes and is generally well-tolerated.
Before the test:
- Inform your doctor about any medications you are taking.
- Wear loose-fitting clothing to allow easy access to your arm for blood collection.
- Follow all specific instructions of your healthcare provider.
Consult your healthcare provider for specific requirements.
Tests often ordered alongside include:
- Von Willebrand Factor Antigen Testing: Evaluates a protein critical for blood clotting
- Platelet Count: Assesses the number of platelets in your blood
- Peripheral Blood Smear: Examines your blood cells under a microscope for abnormalities
ADAMTS 13 IgG Antibodies or ADAMTS 13 Inhibitor
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare, serious blood disorder characterised by clot formation in small blood vessels throughout the body. It leads to low platelet levels, causing excessive bruising, purplish spots on the skin, and potentially life-threatening complications.
