Abstract:

Background: Congenital factor XIII (FXIII) deficiency is one of the rarest bleeding disorders with a prevalence of one per 2 million in the general population. The disorder is accompanied by a high rate of life-threatening bleeding. Due to normal results of routine coagulation tests, diagnosis of the disorder is challenging, but molecular methods can be used for precise diagnosis. Direct mutation detection is the standard method for confirmation of the disorder, but indirect molecular diagnosis can be used as a fast and cost-benefit choice. In the present study, we described indirect molecular methods for molecular diagnosis of congenital FXIII deficiency. Materials and Methods: For this study, a comprehensive literature review was performed on  PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus databases using the following keywords: “indirect molecular diagnosis” with “rare bleeding disorder”, “coagulation factor XIII/13 deficiency”, “prenatal diagnosis” “rare bleeding disorder”, “molecular diagnosis”, “factor XIII/13 deficiency”, “indirect molecular diagnosis” “carrier detection”, and “factor XIII/13”. These words were used separately and in combination with each other. Results: A total of 293 papers were founded, among them 67 papers were selected for the study. Indirect molecular diagnostic approach can be done using candidate microsatellites and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP). This method can be used for prenatal diagnosis and carrier detection, especially in the areas with low economic resources. Polymorphic genetic markers associated with F13 gene like HumFXIII01, HumFXIIIA02, HumFXIIIB, rs7740009, and rs3024405 SNPs can be used for indirect molecular diagnosis of congenital FXIII deficiency. Finally, by comparing patient’s polymorphic markers with healthy individuals, diagnosis can be made. Conclusion: It seems that indirect molecular diagnosis is a relatively reliable and cost-effective method for diagnosis of congenital FXIII deficiency in the areas with low economic resources.

Association of Candidate Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Related to Candidate Genes in Patients With Schizophrenia

Introduction: Schizophrenia is a chronic heterogenic neurodevelopment disorder. Many genes interfere in the development of SCZ. All four genes, NrCAM, PRODH, ANK3, and ANKK1, which were evaluated in this study, were previously reported to be associated with Schizophrenia. The NrCAM contributes to creating cognitive deficiencies through the CAM’s signaling pathway. PRODH plays a vital role in cr...

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Association Studies: A Few Critical Points

Uncovering DNA sequence variations that correlate with phenotypic changes, e.g., diseases, is the aim of sequence variation studies. Common types sequence variations are Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, pronounced snip).SNPs are the third-generation molecular marker. SNP represents a DNA sequence variant of a single base pair with the minor allele occurring in more than 1% of a given popula...

laboratory diagnosis of congenital factor v deficiency, routine, specific coagulation tests with molecular methods

factor v (fv) deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder (rbd) that inherit in autosomal recessive manner. diagnosis of fv deficiency (fvd) is made by routine coagulation tests, fv activity and molecular analysis. in patients with fvd, routine coagulation tests including activated partial thromboplastin time (aptt), prothrombin time (pt) and evenbleeding time (bt) are prolongedwhile thrombin time (...

Current understanding in diagnosis and management of factor XIII deficiency

Factor XIII or "fibrin-stabilizing factor," is a transglutaminase circulates in the blood circulation as a hetero tetramer with two catalytic A subunits and two carrier B subunits. This important coagulation factor has a crucial role in clotting cascade and produces strong covalent bonds between soluble formed fibrin monomers during coagulation. This stable cross linked fibrin strands are resis...

Molecular and Clinical Characterization of 7 Iranian Patients with Severe Congenital Factor V Deficiency: Identification of 4 Novel Mutations

Background and Aims: Congenital factor V (FV) deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder with 1 in 1000000 persons in the general population. Individuals with FV activity <1% and very low FV antigen levels are characterized as severe FV deficient patients. Little data is available about the molecular basis of this bleeding disorder in Iran. Materials and Methods: We analyzed 7 unrelated Iranian FV...

Comparison of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Microsatellites in Non-invasive Genetic Monitoring of a Wolf Population

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) which represent the most widespread source of sequence variation in genomes, are becoming a routine application in several fields such as forensics, ecology and conservation genetics. Their use, requiring short amplifications, may allow a more efficient genotyping of degraded DNA. We provide the first application of SNP genotyping in an Italian non-invasiv...
