Genetic variation in the C-type lectin receptor CLEC4M in type 1 von Willebrand Disease patients
von Willebrand factor (VWF) levels in healthy individuals and in patients with type 1 von Willebrand disease (VWD) are influenced by genetic variation in several genes, e.g. VWF, ABO, STXBP5 and CLEC4M. This study aims to screen comprehensively for CLEC4M variants and investigate their association with type 1 VWD in the Swedish population. In order to screen for CLEC4M variants, the CLEC4M gene...
متن کاملGenetic Heterogeneity in a Large Cohort of Indian Type 3 von Willebrand Disease Patients
BACKGROUND Though von Willebrand disease (VWD) is a common coagulation disorder, due to the complexity of the molecular analysis of von Willebrand factor gene (VWF), not many reports are available from this country. Large size of the gene, heterogeneous nature of mutations and presence of a highly homologous pseudogene region are the major impediments in the genetic diagnosis of VWD. The study ...

متن کاملType 2M:Milwaukee-1 von Willebrand disease: an in-frame deletion in the Cys509-Cys695 loop of the von Willebrand factor A1 domain causes deficient binding of von Willebrand factor to platelets.
This report examines the genetic basis of a variant form of moderately severe von Willebrand disease (vWD) characterized by low plasma von Willebrand factor antigen (vWF:Ag) levels and normal multimerization, typical of type 1 vWD, but disproportionately-low agonist-mediated platelet-binding activity. We identified an in-frame deletion in vWF exon 28 in three generations of affected family memb...

Objective Globozoospermia is a rare syndrome with an incidence of less than 0.1% among infertile men. Researchers have recently identified a large deletion, about 200 kbp, encompassing the whole length of DPY19L2 or mutations in SPATA16 and PICK1 genes associated with globozoospermia. The aim of this study was to analyze the DPY19L2 gene deletion using polymerase chain reaction technique for th...
