Project description:BackgroundHemophagocytic lymfohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare, life-threatening hyperinflammation, characterized by immune system over-activation resulting in hemophagocytosis. HLH could appear as a primary disease caused by mutations of immune-regulatory genes, or develop as a result of viral or bacterial infections, or malignancy. Congenital factor VII (FVII) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by prolonged prothrombin time (PT) and low FVII, which may increase bleeding risk.Case presentationA 50-year-old woman was admitted for a fever persisted for 20 days, presenting with cytopenia, high hyperferritinemia, low activity of NK cells. Bone marrow aspiration showed hemophagocytosis. CT scanning found pulmonary infection. EBV and CMV were not detected. Genetic scanning did not find pathogenic mutation of a HLH NGS panel including 26 genes. This patient was treated as recommended by the HLH 2004 Guidelines. Coagulation tests identified FVII deficiency. Genetic analysis of F7 gene in the patient and her family members identified recurrent compound heterozygous F7 c.64 + 5G > A and c.1224 T > G (p.His408Gln) mutations in this patient and her brother who showed postoperative hemorrhage after surgical resection of renal cell carcinoma. Heterozygotes in this family were asymptomatic.ConclusionsTo our knowledge, this is the first report of HLH in combination with congenital FVII deficiency in Chinese population.

Project description:Background and objectiveFactor VII (FVII) deficiency is probably one of the most common of the rare autosomal recessive coagulation disorders, with an estimated prevalence of l: 500000. All age groups can be affected with FVII deficiency. This study aimed to describe the demographic parameters, symptomatology, hemostatic values and the outcome of FVII deficiency.MethodsThis is a retrospective descriptive study of patients with congenital FVII deficiency over a period of seven years from (August 2008 to August 2015). The data were collected by reviewing the files for each patient diagnosed with FVII deficiency. Surgical interventions, complications and follow up visits were recorded.ResultsTwenty-four patients were included in this study, 17 females and seven males, below one year was the most common age at presentation. More than half of patients (58.3%) were diagnosed within six months of symptoms onset. The majority of patients had severe phenotype. The most common symptom was epitaxis (41.7%). Five out of 10 patients with FVII level < 1% have either mild to moderate phenotype of the disease without complications; while six out of 14 patients with FVII > 1% had at least one episode of severe bleeding. Three patients had hepatitis C; all were treated by blood products before the introduction of recombinant FVII in Iraq. The outcome of most patients (75%) was normal without complications at time of study.ConclusionClinical manifestations of FVII deficiency are variable and they are not necessarily correlated to the FVII level.

Project description:BackgroundCongenital factor VII deficiency (FVIID) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder. The clinical manifestations of this deficiency vary greatly. Predicting the risk of bleeding during and after childbirth of pregnant women with congenital FVIID is difficult. Recombinant factor VIIa is the most common replacement therapy for FVIID. However, no unified diagnosis and treatment plan for pregnant women with congenital FVIID has been established.Case summaryWe report the clinical history of a pregnant woman who was considered to have congenital FVIID. Recombinant factor VIIa was prophylactically administered to the pregnant woman at the time of cervical fully opening. She successfully delivered a live infant without any complications, such as postpartum hemorrhage, neonatal abnormalities, and so on.ConclusionProphylaxis of recombinant factor VIIa during delivery can effectively reduce the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage among pregnant women with congenital FVIID associated with a high risk of bleeding.

Project description:IntroductionHereditary human coagulation factor VII (FVII) deficiency is an inherited autosomal recessive hemorrhagic disease involving mutations in the F7 gene. The sites and types of F7 mutations may influence the coagulation activities of plasma FVII (FVII: C) and severity of hemorrhage symptoms. However, the specific mutations that impact FVII activity are not completely known.MethodsWe tested the coagulation functions and plasma activities of FVII in seven patients recruited from six families with hereditary FVII deficiency and sequenced the F7 gene of the patients and their families. Then, we analyzed the genetic information from the six families and predicted the structures of the mutated proteins.ResultsIn this study, we detected 11 F7 mutations, including four novel mutations, in which the mutations p.Phe84Ser and p.Gly156Cys encoded the Gla and EGF domains of FVII, respectively, while the mutation p.Ser339Leu encoded the recognition site of the enzymatic protein and maintained the conformation of the catalytic domain structure. Meanwhile, the mutation in the 5' untranslated region (UTR) was closely associated with the mRNA regulatory sequence.ConclusionWe have identified novel genetic mutations and performed pedigree analysis that shed light on the pathogenesis of hereditary human coagulation FVII deficiency and may contribute to the development of treatments for this disease.

Project description:BackgroundCongenital factor VII (FVII) deficiency is an inherited bleeding disorder, with heterogenous bleeding symptoms. Women with FVII deficiency face hemostatic challenges during menstruation, ovulation, and childbirth. This systematic review evaluated prevalence and management of bleeding symptoms associated with gynecological and obstetric issues in women with FVII deficiency.MethodsDatabases (BIOSIS Previews, Current Contents Search, Embase, and MEDLINE) were searched for studies reporting FVII deficiency and gynecological or obstetric issues in women. Articles were screened using Joanna Briggs Institute checklists and relevant data extracted.ResultsOne hundred fourteen women were identified from 62 publications. Forty-six women had severe deficiency (FVII:C < 5% or <5 IU/dl). Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) was the most common bleeding symptom (n = 94; 82%); hospitalization and urgent medical/surgical interventions for acute HMB episodes were required in 16 women (14%). Seven women reported ovarian bleeding (6%); other bleeding symptoms varied. Patient management was inconsistent and included hemostatic and hormonal treatments. Only four women (7%) reporting vaginal bleeding during pregnancy. Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) occurred following 12/45 deliveries (27%; 5 [42%] requiring blood transfusion) and was not necessarily prevented by prophylaxis (8 women).ConclusionWomen with congenital FVII deficiency have an increased risk of HMB, ovarian bleeding, and PPH, impacting quality of life. Recognition of a bleeding disorder as the cause is often delayed. Management of bleeding complications is heterogeneous due to lack of treatment guidelines. Harmonizing severity classification of FVII deficiency may help standardize treatment strategies and development of specific guidelines for these women.

Project description:Tissue factor (TF) pathway inhibitor (TFPI) is a Kunitz-type anticoagulation protein that inhibits activated factor VII (FVIIa)/TF complex. Incidentally, many different F7 gene variants, including TFPI-binding exosite mutations, have been reported in patients with congenital FVII deficiency and clinical bleeding variabilities. Here, TFPI-binding exosites (R147 and K192) on FVII zymogen were selectively disrupted to understand their roles in the pathogenesis of bleeding phenotypes. Expression of recombinant FVII variants (R147A, K192A, and R147A/K192A) demonstrated markedly reduced secretion of FVII owing to intracellular retention in the endoplasmic reticulum, as demonstrated by upregulation of the unfolded protein response genes in all FVII variants. FVII variants showed a similar FVII activation pattern and FVIIa amidolytic activity than FVII wild-type (WT). In contrast to FVII activation, R147A and K192A showed a 90% reduction in FX activation relative to WT, whereas the R147A/K192A variant demonstrated a 99% decrease in FX activation. The clotting time was markedly prolonged with R147A and K192A than WT, and no FVII coagulant activity was detected in R147A/K192A. In addition, the thrombin generation assay revealed a significant prolongation of lag time in all FVII variants. Our study explains how mutations of TFPI-binding exosites of FVII can lead to bleeding phenotypes in individuals carrying these aberrancies.

Project description:Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a genetic disorder of the connective tissue which rarely manifests in the neonatal period and has an ominous prognosis. A case of a first female offspring of healthy parents is described here. The pregnancy was uneventful and the mother had a term caesarean delivery. At birth, some dysmorphic signs became apparent, such as loose redundant skin, dolichocephaly, frontal bossing, deeply sunken eyes, micrognathia, contractures of the elbows, arachnodactyly and hip dysplasia. The echocardiogram showed a mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation and a long aortic arch. The diagnosis of neonatal MFS came forward and genetic studies revealed a de novo mutation in the fibrillin 1 (FBN1) gene. At 6 months, due to a progressive worsening of the cardiac pathology, she was submitted to mitral valvuloplasty. She is now 2 years and 10 months old, which is a remarkable feat for a child suffering from this condition.

Project description:Because of the very short half-life of factor VII, prophylaxis in factor VII deficiency is considered a difficult endeavor. The clinical efficacy and safety of prophylactic regimens, and indications for their use, were evaluated in factor VII-deficient patients in the Seven Treatment Evaluation Registry. Prophylaxis data (38 courses) were analyzed from 34 patients with severe factor VII deficiency (<1-45 years of age, 21 female). Severest phenotypes (central nervous system, gastrointestinal, joint bleeding episodes) were highly prevalent. Twenty-one patients received recombinant activated factor VII (24 courses), four received plasma-derived factor VII, and ten received fresh frozen plasma. Prophylactic schedules clustered into "frequent" courses (three times weekly, n=23) and "infrequent" courses (≤ 2 times weekly, n=15). Excluding courses for menorrhagia, "frequent" and "infrequent" courses produced 18/23 (78%) and 5/12 (41%) "excellent" outcomes, respectively; relative risk, 1.88; 95% confidence interval, 0.93-3.79; P=0.079. Long term prophylaxis lasted from 1 to >10 years. No thrombosis or new inhibitors occurred. In conclusion, a subset of patients with factor VII deficiency needed prophylaxis because of severe bleeding. Recombinant activated factor VII schedules based on "frequent" administrations (three times weekly) and a 90 μg/kg total weekly dose were effective. These data provide a rationale for long-term, safe prophylaxis in factor VII deficiency.

Project description:BackgroundCongenital factor VII (FVII) deficiency is a rare inherited autosomal recessive disorder characterized by prolongation of prothrombin time and low FVII coagulation activity, which may increase the risk of bleeding.Case presentationA 66-year-old man with acute postoperative intracranial hemorrhage was transferred to our hospital owing to coagulation dysfunction. In coagulation tests, the FVII coagulation activity was less than 2%. Genetic analysis of the gene encoding FVII identified compound heterozygous mutations: c. 681+1 G>T and c. C1286T (p. Ala429Val).ConclusionsTo our knowledge, this is the first report describing the c. C1286T (p. Ala429Val) mutation in the FVII-encoding gene. We suggest that these mutations resulted in the reduced FVII activity and abnormal clotting in our patient after brain surgery.
