Gene targeting in hemostasis. Factor VII.
نویسنده
چکیده
Factor VII (FVII), in concert with its natural cofactor and receptor, Tissue Factor (TF), initiates the process of blood coagulation following vascular injury. Mice completely deficient in FVII were generated via specific deletion of exons 2 to 8, thus deleting the entire coding region of the mature protein. In contrast to the early lethality observed in TF-deficient embryos (TF-/-), embryos deficient in FVII (FVII-/-) developed normally, without incidence of hemorrhage. However, FVII-/- neonates succumbed to either early intraabdominal or intracranial hemorrhage in later life.

متن کاملFactor VII Gene Defects: Review of Functional Studies and Their Clinical Implications
Coagulation factors belong to a family of plasma glycosylated proteins that should be activated for appropriate blood coagulation. Congenital deficiencies of these factors cause inheritable hemorrhagic diseases. Factor VII (FVII) deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder with variable clinical symptoms. Various mutations have been identified throughout the F7 gene and can affect all the protein do...

Abstract Background: Factor VII, is a coagulant protease it begins the proteolytic cascade reactions and produces thrombin. The use of recombinant human factor VII, (rhFVII) is effective for the treatment of patients with hemophilia A or B. It is a target for gene therapy. This study was done to clone factor VII from HepG2 cell line. Methods: RNA was extracted from the hepatoma, (HepG2), ...

Background: Coagulation Factor VII is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease which has a pivotal role in the initiation of the coagulation cascade. The congenital Factor VII deficiency is a recessive hemorrhagic disorder that occurs due to mutations of F7 gene. In the present study C91S (p.C91S) substitution was detected in a patient with FVII deficiency. This mutation has not b...
متن کاملFactor VII activating protease (FSAP): a novel protease in hemostasis.
Recently a novel serine protease in human plasma was described and was named PHBP, PHBSP or factor seven activating protease (FSAP), respectively, the latter according to the finding that it can support coagulation by factor VII activation. Later on FSAP was identified as a potent activator of single chain plasminogen activators, in particular of prourokinase, as well. The physiological role of...
