“…In VITT, it has been hypothesized that following microvascular damage during vaccine administration, trace amounts of 50 billion virus particles in each dose come into contact with blood, bringing AdV DNA and polyadenylated hexone proteins the AdV vectors in contact with PF4. Either component of AdV could replace heparin as a scaffold of negative charges leading to the conformational changes of PF4 molecule already described in HIT and to the formation of anti-PF4/polyanion antibodies [39] , [40] , [41] , [42] . These VITT antibodies bind to PF4 epitopes which overlap with the binding site of heparin but differ from those recognized by anti-PF4 antibodies seen in HIT [43] .…”

“…Aunque la vacunación ha tenido un impacto positivo en la pandemia, a medida que pasa el tiempo y se aplican más dosis, se ha comenzado a ver los efectos adversos de las vacunas. En febrero del 2021 se anunció la aparición de unos casos de trombosis del seno venoso cerebral con trombocitopenia y anticuerpos contra el factor 4 plaquetario (anti-PF4) en individuos inmunizados con la vacuna de AstraZeneca, y se acuñó el término "trombocitopenia trombótica inmune inducida por vacunas" o VITT a esta entidad [35][36][37][38], la cual se define de acuerdo con la Asociación Americana de Hematología (ASH), si cumple los siguientes cinco criterios: 1) inicio de los síntomas entre 4 y 42 días posteriores a la vacunación; 2) presencia de cualquier trombosis venosa o arterial; 3) trombocitopenia con recuento de plaquetas <150.000 células/μL; 4) nivel del dímero D >4 veces el límite superior normal; y, 5) anticuerpos anti-PFA positivos por técni-ca de ELISA [39,40]. Si todos los cinco criterios están presentes, se confirma el diagnóstico, si solo hay cuatro, es probable [35,41].…”

“…En cuanto a la fisiopatología, se considera que VITT es una enfermedad autoinmune, donde hay producción de anticuerpos anti-PFA que activan de forma directa a las plaquetas, generando trombosis [36,37,46,47]. Los individuos desarrollan una coagulopatía de consumo, con trombocitopenia, hipofibrinogenemia y aumento en los niveles de dímero D [35].…”

“…As described in this paper by Iba et al [6] , the pathogenesis of VITT is believed to resemble that of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), where platelet-activating anti-platelet factor 4 (anti-PF4) antibodies seem to play a key role. However, antibodies in HIT are bound to aminoacids corresponding to different sites on PF4.…”

“…Whereas anti-PF4 antibodies also have been detected after mRNA vaccination, their optical density tends to be low and they seem to have a poor function in terms of platelet aggregation, as detailed in the paper by Iba et al [6] ..…”
