Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: * 18 years or older

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: * History of thrombosis or bleeding * Use of anti-coagulants, aspirin or other platelet function inhibitors in the 10 days preceding the blood draw for an experiment * Use of statins and ACE inhibitors * Diagnosis of hepatic and/or renal failure * Chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel diseases, systemic lupus erythematous (SLE), diabetes mellitus (DM) * Malignancies (excluding basal cell carcinoma of the skin)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary study outcome is active von Willebrand factor levels, normalized to levels in normal pooled plasma (% of NPP), as measured by the immunosorbent assay.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
* Binding of the VHH to different forms of vWF (expressed as OD at 490 nm after addition of substrate OPD to reaction). * Ristocetin-induced vWF-platelet binding, measured by flow cytometric assay, expressed as median fluorescence index (MFI). * Ristocetin-, collagen or ADP-induced vWF-dependent platelet agglutination or aggregation (respectively), measured by LTA, expressed as maximal platelet aggregation. * Aperture occlusion time, as measured by PFA-200, expressed in seconds * Platelet covered area (%), measured from images taken during perfusion experiments * Fluorescence intensity (AU), measured from images taken during perfusion experiments
