Disease relevance of Thrombophilia

 

Psychiatry related information on Thrombophilia

  • METHODS: Using a numerical simulation model, we generated tissue factor (TF) initiated thrombin curves using coagulation factor levels from the Leiden Thrombophilia Study population and evaluated thrombotic risk, by sex, age, smoking, alcohol consumption, body mass index (BMI) and oral contraceptive (OC) use [6].
 

High impact information on Thrombophilia

  • Enhanced mRNA 3' end formation efficiency emerges as a novel principle causing a genetic disorder and explains the role of the F2 20210 G-->A mutation in the pathogenesis of thrombophilia [7].
  • Hypercoagulability in such women may therefore be due to the reduction of surface-bound annexin V by antiphospholipid antibodies [8].
  • CONCLUSIONS: Elevated levels of fasting insulin are associated with impaired fibrinolysis and hypercoagulability in subjects with normal glucose tolerance [9].
  • Fibrinogen Dusart, whose structural abnormality is in the COOH-terminal "alphaC" region of its Aalpha chain (Aalpha R554C-albumin), is associated with thrombophilia ("Dusart Syndrome"), and is characterized functionally by defective fibrin polymerization and clot structure, and reduced plasminogen binding and tPA-induced fibrinolysis [10].
  • The molecular defect in the abnormal fibrinogen Dusart (Paris V) that is associated with thrombophilia was determined by sequence analysis of genomic DNA that had been amplified using the polymerase chain reaction [11].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Thrombophilia

  • Molecular basis for fibrinogen Dusart (A alpha 554 Arg-->Cys) and its association with abnormal fibrin polymerization and thrombophilia [11].
  • In an abnormal fibrinogen (fibrinogen Naples) associated with congenital thrombophilia we have identified a single base substitution (G----A) in the B beta chain gene that results in an amino acid substitution of alanine by threonine at position 68 in the B beta chain of fibrinogen [12].
  • Morning hypercoagulability and hypofibrinolysis. Diurnal variations in circulating activated factor VII, prothrombin fragment F1+2, and plasmin-plasmin inhibitor complex [13].
  • The structure of the gene for protein C, an anticoagulant serine protease, was analyzed in 29 unrelated patients with hereditary thrombophilia and protein C deficiency [14].
  • Antithrombin "Chicago": a functionally abnormal molecule with increased heparin affinity causing familial thrombophilia [15].
 

Biological context of Thrombophilia

 

Anatomical context of Thrombophilia

 

Gene context of Thrombophilia

  • We studied the relation between heritable thrombophilic defects and fetal loss in a cohort of women with factor V Leiden or deficiency of antithrombin, protein C, or protein S. METHODS: We studied 1384 women enrolled in the European Prospective Cohort on Thrombophilia (EPCOT) [25].
  • Indeed, systemic hypercoagulability in patients with cancer and TF overexpression by cancer cells are both closely associated with tumor progression, but their causes have been elusive [26].
  • This is supported by the presence of hypercoagulability, increased CD61 and CD62P on resting platelets, and higher plasma soluble P-selectin in L(-/-)/A(-/-)/FG(-/-) mice as compared to L(-/-)/A(-/-), FG(-/-), or wild-type mice [27].
  • Familial thrombophilia associated with homozygosity for the cystathionine beta-synthase 833T-->C mutation [28].
  • Abnormalities of the Protein C (PC) pathway are found in the majority of patients with thrombophilia [29].
