| 1 | Measurement of the von Willebrand factor (vWF) propeptide, also known as von Willebrand antigen II, has been suggested to be helpful in the discrimination of congenital von Willebrand disease type I from type 2 and in assessing the extent of activation of the endothelium. | propeptide | von Willebrand factor | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | Measurement of the von Willebrand factor (vWF) propeptide, also known as von Willebrand antigen II, has been suggested to be helpful in the discrimination of congenital von Willebrand disease type I from type 2 and in assessing the extent of activation of the endothelium. | propeptide | von Willebrand factor | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | In contrast, propeptide levels were significantly higher in AvWS (11.4+/-1.1 vs 4.7+/-0.2 nM, p <0.001), probably reflecting a compensatory increase in vWF synthesis or increased perturbation of the endothelium in AvWS. | propeptide | von Willebrand factor | Homo sapiens |
| 4 | Measurement of propeptide levels may provide additional information in AvWS as to whether decreased levels of mature vWF in the circulation are due to a decrease in synthesis or due to an accelerated removal of vWF from the circulation. | propeptide | von Willebrand factor | Homo sapiens |
