Correction of the coagulation defect in hemophilia A mice through factor VIII expression in skin.

The Effects of Novel Mutations in A1 Domain of Human Coagulation Factor VIII on Its Secretion Level in Cultured Mammalian Cells

Inefficient secretion of the human coagulation factor (hFVIII) in mammalian expression systems is one ofthe main causes of the hFVIII low expression level, attributed to its interaction with a chaperone known asBiP/GRP78. In order to improve secretion efficiency of the hFVIII, based on the higher secretion level of theporcine FVIII and analysis of the hFVIII A110 region, that ...

Coagulation Therapy in Hemophilia A and its Relation to Factor VIII Inhibitor in Northeast of Iran

Clinical and Laboratory Approaches to Hemophilia A

Hemophilia A is a worldwide disorder of coagulation system. It is a male disorder, yet females with hemophilia are rarely seen in communities with high rate of consanguineous marriages. The abnormalities in factor VIII gene transfer as an X-linked pattern in the family, affects as many as one-third of patients who had no family history of abnormality and thus the occurrence of a sporadic mutati...

The Current Status of Bone Marrow Transplantation in Treatment of Patients with Hemophilia

Background Bone marrow transplantation (BMT)is nowadays used in various hematological disorders including leukemias. Hemophilia A & B are sex linked bleeding disorders in which there are various genetic abnormalities in factor VIII & IX genes. Among various hematological disorders, bleeding disorders mainly hemophilia in now widely treated using plasma derived and recombinant factor VIII & IX ...

The Survey of Effective Agents on Factor VIII and IX Inhibitors in Patients with Hemophilia A and B in Kermanshah Province

  Background: Hemophilia is the most frequent severe hereditary hemorrhagic disease due to deficiency of coagulation factors VIII (Hemophilia A) or IX (Hemophilia B) in plasma. We aimed to identify patients with  hemophilia in Kermanshah, Iran and assess the incidence of inhibitors in this population and its associated factors. Methods: This study was conducted on patients with hemophilia...
