“…In previous studies, subjects with blood group O have been reported to exhibit 20-30% lower levels of VWF antigen and activity, compared with subjects with non-O blood groups (34)(35)(36)(37). In line with these data, we found an influence of ABO blood groups on plasma VWF and FVIII levels.…”

While most autoantibodies against vWF are IgG, antibodies from other classes have also been implicated sporadically [16]. Anti-vWF autoantibodies can interact with active domains of the factor responsible for binding to collagen and platelets, without interfering with factor VIII [17][18][19].…”
