Combined factor V-VIII deficiency: a case report with studies of factor V and VIII activation by thrombin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new case of combined factor V-VIII deficiency is reported with in vitro studies of factors V and VIII activation by thrombin. The normal activation of factors V and VIII demonstrated in the patient's plasma and the equivalent levels of factor VIII coagulant activity and coagulant antigen support the hypothesis that a quantitative rather than qualitative defect in factors V and VIII is present in this disorder.

FACTOR 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...
متن کاملCombined Factor V and VIII Deficiency
This review summarizes current data on the pathomechanisms and new genetic findings of combined factor V and VIII deficiency (CF5F8D). Congenital haemorrhagic disorders characterized by deficiency of two clotting factors comprise an interesting group. Among dual coagulation disorders, CF5F8D is the most common type. For the first time combined factor V and VIII deficiency (F5F8D) was reported b...
متن کاملRole of the B domain for factor VIII and factor V expression and function.
Factor V and factor VIII are homologous cofactors in the blood coagulation cascade that have the domain structure A1-A2-B-A3-C1-C2, of which the B domain has extensively diverged. In transfected COS-1 monkey cells, expression of factor VIII is approximately 10-fold less efficient than that of factor V, primarily because of inefficient protein secretion and, to a lesser extent, reduced mRNA expr...
متن کاملIn situ-generated thrombin is the only enzyme that effectively activates factor VIII and factor V in thromboplastin-activated plasma.
We investigated the activation of the nonenzymatic protein cofactors factor VIII and factor V in plasma when coagulation was initiated by thromboplastin. With sensitive bioassays, we were able to measure specifically the generation of activated factor VIII and activated factor V in plasma. Our results showed that when plasma was triggered with a relatively high concentration of thromboplastin, ...

BACKGROUND: Combined factor V and VIII deficiency (CF5F8D) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder, with an estimated prevalence of about 1:100,000 in the Jewish population. Affected individuals have between 5 and 30% of normal levels of factor V and VIII, whereas the levels of other plasma proteins are not altered. This bleeding disorder has been treated by replacement therapy with plasma infus...
