Severe deficiency of the von Willebrand factor (VWF)-cleaving protease ADAMTS13 as observed in acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is caused by inhibitory and non-inhibitory autoantibodies directed against the protease. Current treatment with plasma exchange is considered to remove circulating antibodies and to concurrently replenish the deficient enzyme.
