High-dose factor VIII inhibits factor VIII-specific memory B cells in hemophilia A with factor VIII inhibitors.
Hemophilia A in its severe form is a life-threatening hemorrhagic disease that is caused by mutations in the factor VIII (FVIII) gene (symbol F8). About 25% of patients who receive replacement therapy develop neutralizing antibodies that inhibit the function of substituted FVIII. Long-term application of high doses of FVIII has evolved as an effective therapy to eradicate the antibodies and to ...
متن کاملDetection of Factor VIII Inhibitors in Hemophilia A Patients
Background: Factor VIII administration to hemophilia A patients results in an immune response (inhibitor formation) which significantly complicates the therapy. The present study was performed to determine the prevalence of inhibitor development in hemophilia A patients receiving recombinant factor VIII therapy. Materials and Methods: This was an observational descriptive study. Clotting fac...
متن کاملFACTOR V AND VIII INHIBITOR IN PATIENTS WITH COMBINED FACTOR V AND VIII DEFICIENCY
Patients with coagulation factor(s) deficiency who use coagulation therapy are susceptible to forming inhibitors against coagulation factor(s). In this survey we detected factor V and VIII inhibitor in ten patients with combined deficiency of factors V and VIII from north east of Iran (Khorassan province). It was revealed in our survey that eight patients had both factor V and factor VIII i...
