Von Willebrand Factor Human
Human von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large multimeric glycoprotein derived from plasma that mediates platelet adhesion to damaged subendothelium via interaction with collagen and platelet glycoprotein Ib-IX-V, and stabilizes and protects coagulation factor VIII from proteolytic degradation. Plasma-derived VWF concentrates are used for the treatment of von Willebrand disease (VWD) when desmopressin is insufficient, particularly for surgical prophylaxis and management of severe bleeding. VWF levels also influence risk in cardiovascular and pulmonary conditions.
