Factor V Leiden, MTHFR C677T and Prothrombin Gene Mutation G20210A in Iranian Patients with Venous Thrombosis
Background: Factor V Leiden, Prothrombin gene (G20210A) and MTHFR (C677T) polymorphism are the main biomarkers for evaluation of tendency for venous thromboembolism. We aimed to investigate the frequency of mutations in factor V Leiden, Prothrombin G20210A and MTHFR C677T and identify the genetic status for these mutations in patients with venous thrombosis. Methods: This study was carried out...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden prevalence in venous thromboembolism patients.
BACKGROUND Recent findings have demonstrated a high frequency of activated protein C resistance in patients suffering from deep venous thrombosis (DVT). This abnormality has been related to a mutation in the factor V gene (at nucleotide position 1,691, guanine to adenine [G-->A] substitution). AIM To assess the frequency of the mutation in unselected inpatients with a proved DVT. To study the...
متن کاملDetection of factor V Leiden in Thai patients with venous thrombosis.
The molecular defect underlying activated protein C resistance (APC-R) is caused by a G to A point mutation in the codon for arginine 506 in the factor V gene (factor V Leiden) which is a major risk factor for venous thrombosis, especially in Caucasian populations. This study is an analysis of the Thai population to determine the prevalence of the factor V Leiden mutation. Twenty-seven patients...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden, prothrombin G20210A and MTHFR C677T mutations in Romanian patients with deep venous thrombosis
Introduction Deep venous thrombosis (DVT), with an incidence of about 1 case/year/1000 adults, is a multifactorial disease, result of the interaction between genetic and acquired risk factors. Although considered idiopathic in majority of the cases, an underlying cause could be detected in up to 80% of the patients with DVT, as shown in the literature (Whitlatch 2008). Genetic factors contribut...
متن کاملPrevalence of factor V leiden mutation in patients with thrombosis in Tunisia.
This study determined the prevalence of inherited factor V Leiden mutation in a group of 128 thrombosis patients (102 with venous thrombosis and 26 with arterial thrombosis) attending a hospital in Sousse, Tunisia, and a control group of 100 with no history of thrombosis. Using an allele-specific PCR amplification technique, factor V Leiden was found in significantly more patients (20.3%) than ...
