Relationship between Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (C677T), Factor V Leiden (G1691A), Prothrombin Mutation (G20210A) and Severe Preeclampsia in a Brazilian Population
Objectives: To better understand the etiologic factors that can influence preeclampsia, we investigated hereditary factors for thrombosis, FV Leiden, F II 20210A mutation and the polymorphism C677T of the MTHFR, as singly and as in association, in a group of women from Ceará stateNortheast Brazil with severe preeclampsia. Material and Methods: We conducted a case-control study. 101 cases of sev...
متن کاملFactor V Leiden G1691A and prothrombin G20210A mutations among Palestinian patients with sickle cell disease
Background Vascular thrombosis is an important pathophysiological aspect of sickle cell disease (SCD). This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and clinical impact of factor V Leiden G1691A (FVL) and prothrombin G20210A mutations among Palestinian sickle cell disease (SCD) patients. Methods A total of 117 SCD patients, including 59 patients with sickle cell anemia (SS), 33 patients with...
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 /...
متن کاملFactor V leiden and prothrombin G20210A mutations, but not methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T, are associated with recurrent miscarriages.
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between recurrent miscarriages and factor V Leiden, prothrombin G20210A and C677T methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) mutations. In this case-control study the prevalence of factor V Leiden, prothrombin G20210A and C677T methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase mutations was determined in a consecutive series of 80 recurrent miscarria...
متن کاملSimultaneous determination of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T and factor V G1691A genotypes by mutagenically separated PCR and multiple-injection capillary electrophoresis.
The C677T mutation of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene and the G1691A (Leiden) mutation of the factor V gene are established risk factors for thromboembolic disease. We here present an assay for the simultaneous genotyping of these common genetic variants. The assay involves a strategy based on multiplex mutagenically separated PCR performed in a single tube containing six primers. ...
