Coexistence of factor V G1691A and factor II G20210A gene mutations in a thrombotic family is associated with recurrence and early onset of venous thrombosis.
Two G-to-A mutations at positions 1691 of the factor V (FV) gene and 20210 of the prothrombin (FII) gene have been associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism. We report a thrombosis-prone family in which one subject--the propositus who exhibited combined heterozygous FV G1691A and FII G20210A mutations--showed spontaneous and early clinical onset (at 23 years), recurrences of d...
متن کاملFactor 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 G1691A and prothrombin G20210A gene polymorphisms among Iranian patients with cerebral venous thrombosis
Objective: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an important cause of stroke, especially in young adults, that has many predisposing factors. G20210A mutation in prothrombin gene (Factor II) and G1691A mutation in Factor V Leiden (FVL) are two common hereditary causes of CVT. This study aimed to study the rate of these mutations in patients with CVT from Fars Province in southern Iran. Methods: ...
متن کاملPrevalence of the Factor V G1691A and the Factor II/prothrombin G20210A gene polymorphisms among Tamilians.
We have investigated the prevalence of the Factor II G20210A and Factor V G1691A single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a South Indian-Tamil Nadu population. The SNP genotyping was performed using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)/restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and by a recently FDA-approved LightCycler real-time PCR assay. Of 72 samples that were genotyped, 4 (5.5%) patie...
متن کاملFrequency of factor V Leiden (G1691A) and prothrombin (G20210A) polymorphisms in Population of Kerman Province, Iran
Background & Aims:Thromboembolism is an acute cardiovascular disease that ranges from clinically unimportant to massive embolism. Both acquired and hereditary risk factors contribute to the disease. We aimed to determine the prevalence of two hereditary predisposing factor of the disease, prothrombin G20210A and factor V Leiden (G1691A) polymorphisms, in Kerman population.<br /...
