Australian researchers have made the discovery, which will play an important role in improving vaccine safety.
vaccine complication and rare but potentially fatal blood disease contracted by some people who caught a cold.-induced immune thrombocytopenia and thrombosis , and an adenovirus VITT-like disorder – share almost identical molecular signatures or fingerprints, Adelaide's Flinders University announced today.
"Indeed, the pathways of lethal antibody production in these disorders must be virtually identical and have similar genetic risk factors." "VITT was found to be caused by an unusually dangerous blood autoantibody directed against a protein termed platelet factor 4 ," Flinders University said in a statement.Flinders University researchers Dr Jing Jing Wang and Flinders Professor Tom Gordon collaborated with an overseas group to make the findings.
