- Molecular classification
- Glycoprotein, Multimeric protein, Adhesion molecule, Coagulation factor regulator
01
Overview
Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large, multimeric glycoprotein found in blood plasma. It plays a central role in hemostasis by mediating platelet adhesion to sites of vascular injury and stabilizing coagulation factor VIII, which is essential for proper blood clotting. Deficiency or dysfunction of VWF leads to von Willebrand disease (VWD), characterized by impaired blood clotting and increased bleeding tendency.
