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:ObjectiveThe aim was to investigate the clinical characteristics and molecular pathogenic mechanism of twins with congenital factor V (FV) deficiency.MethodsWe comprehensively analyzed the clinical manifestations and laboratory test results of a set of twins and their parents and performed point mutation analysis with direct high-throughput exon sequencing.ResultsThe prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time were prolonged for both probands, and the FV activity levels were 13.0% and 9.8%. Next-generation sequencing showed that the affected individuals harbored a paternal c.5113A>C (p.S1705R) and a maternal c.4949C>T (p.A1650V) heterozygous variants in the FV gene, which conformed to an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. This is the first report of these point mutations. The older boy also had a congenital patent foramen ovale.ConclusionIn this set of twins, missense mutations of the FV gene were related to congenital FV deficiency but unrelated to the patent foramen ovale observed in the older boy.

Project description:Hereditary combined vitamin K-dependent (VKD) coagulation factor deficiency is an autosomal recessive bleeding disorder associated with defects in either the gamma-carboxylase, which carboxylates VKD proteins to render them active, or the vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1), which supplies the reduced vitamin K cofactor required for carboxylation. Such deficiencies are rare, and we report the fourth case resulting from mutations in the carboxylase gene, identified in a Tunisian girl who exhibited impaired function in hemostatic VKD factors that was not restored by vitamin K administration. Sequence analysis of the proposita did not identify any mutations in the VKORC1 gene but, remarkably, revealed 3 heterozygous mutations in the carboxylase gene that caused the substitutions Asp31Asn, Trp157Arg, and Thr591Lys. None of these mutations have previously been reported. Family analysis showed that Asp31Asn and Thr591Lys were coallelic and maternally transmitted while Trp157Arg was transmitted by the father, and a genomic screen of 100 healthy individuals ruled out frequent polymorphisms. Mutational analysis indicated wild-type activity for the Asp31Asn carboxylase. In contrast, the respective Trp157Arg and Thr591Lys activities were 8% and 0% that of wild-type carboxylase, and their compound heterozygosity can therefore account for functional VKD factor deficiency. The implications for carboxylase mechanism are discussed.

Project description:BackgroundCongenital coagulation factor VII (FVII) deficiency is a rare, autosomal-recessive haemorrhagic disorder with an estimated incidence of 1:500,000. This disorder is caused by mutations in the F7 gene.Case descriptionHere, we report a pedigree of congenital FVII deficiency. The proband was a 30-year-old female with severely low FVII activity and a history of menorrhagia and epistaxis since her childhood who was subsequently diagnosed with congenital compound heterozygous FVII deficiency. A genetic study revealed a novel combination of compound heterozygous mutations (c.64G 〉 A, p.Gly22Ser and c.1027G 〉 A, p.Gly343Ser). Her father and older son had the c.64G 〉 A, p.Gly22Ser (heterozygous) mutation. Her mother and younger son had the c.1027G 〉 A, p.Gly343Ser (heterozygous) mutation. The predicted results of PolyPhen-2 and MutationTaster indicated that these mutations were probably damaging and disease-causing, respectively.ConclusionIn this study, we identified a novel combination of genetic mutations that could expand the mutant library and help in elucidating the pathogenesis of hereditary human coagulation FVII deficiency. A novel combination of compound heterozygous mutations was reported for the first time in Chinese individuals.

Project description:Coagulation factor V (FV) is an essential factor to regulate and participate in the initial coagulation reaction, and it is the most important prothrombin activator in vivo. FV congenital deficiency is a rare hereditary disease, it exposes patients to hemorrhagic risk, with high morbi-mortality. Clinically, laparoscopic major hepatectomy has its own risk of intraoperative hemorrhage, and moreover, coupled with the lack of FV will increase the risk of bleeding even life-threatening. However, several studies have reported the cases of patients with FV deficiency undergoing surgery, there is no report of laparoscopic major hepatectomy in patients with FV deficiency so far. Here, we reported one case with no abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, fever and other discomfort who was diagnosed with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHC) complicated with hereditary FV deficiency and then received laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy after conversion therapy. After preoperative sufficient infusion of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) to improve coagulation function, careful intraoperative operation, and strict postoperative monitoring, no obvious complications occurred in the perioperative period. At present, the patient has an overall survival time of 18 months and is still followed up. It is suggested that laparoscopic major hepatectomy is safe and feasible for patients with hereditary FV deficiency under careful perioperative management.

Project description:Coagulation factor VII (proconvertin) is one of the proteins starting the blood coagulation cascade. Plasma FVII concentration is regulated by different factors. A low level of FVII could also be a result of FVII deficiency (MIM# 227500), the rare autosomal recessive inherited disease caused by pathogenic variants in the F7 gene. The aim of this study was to describe a mutation spectrum of the F7 gene and genotype-phenotype relationship in patients with FVII deficiency in Russia for the first time. We studied the primary structure of the F7 gene of 54 unrelated patients with FVII deficiency by direct Sanger sequencing. Pathogenic variants in the F7 gene were detected in 37 (68.5%) of them. We identified 24 different mutations located mostly in the serine protease domain. Five pathogenic variants had never been reported before. A major mutation in the Russian population was c.1391delC (p. Pro464Hisfs*32), linked with rs36209567 and rs6046 functional polymorphisms, that is widely distributed in East Europe. As in other countries, the F7 genotypes poorly correlated with the severity of clinical manifestations but were quite well associated with FVII levels. Minor alleles of functional polymorphisms rs510335, rs5742910, rs561241, rs36209567, and rs6046 could also participate in the F7 genotype and influence FVII levels.

Project description:Juvenile vitamin B(12) or cobalamin (Cbl) deficiency is notoriously difficult to explain due to numerous acquired and inherited causes. The consequences of insufficient Cbl are megaloblastic anemia, nutrient malabsorption, and neurological problems. The treatment is straightforward with parenteral Cbl supplementation that resolves most health issues without an urgent need to clarify their cause. Aside from being clinically unsatisfying, failing to elucidate the basis of Cbl deficiency means important information regarding recurrence risk is not available to the individual if the cause is contagious or inherited. Acquired causes have largely disappeared in the Modern World because they were mostly due to parasites or malnutrition. Today, perhaps the most common causes of juvenile Cbl deficiency are Imerslund-Gräsbeck syndrome and inherited intrinsic factor deficiency (IFD). Three genes are involved and genetic testing is complicated and not widely available. We used self-identified ancestry to accelerate and confirm the genetic diagnosis of IFD in three families of Chaldean origin. A founder mutation limited to Chaldeans from Iraq in the intrinsic factor gene GIF was identified as the cause. World events reshape the genetic structure of populations and inherited diseases in many ways. In this case, all the patients were diagnosed in the USA among recent immigrants from a single region. While IFD itself is not restricted to one kind of people, certain mutations are limited in their range but migrations relocate them along with their host population. As a result, self-identified ancestry as a stratifying characteristic should perhaps be considered in diagnostic strategies for rare genetic disorders.

Project description:Hereditary juvenile megaloblastic anemia due to vitamin B12 (cobalamin) deficiency is caused by intestinal malabsorption of cobalamin. In Imerslund-Grasbeck syndrome (IGS), cobalamin absorption is completely abolished and not corrected by the administration of intrinsic factor (IF); if untreated, the disease is fatal. Biallelic mutations either in the cubilin (CUBN) or amnionless (AMN) gene cause IGS. In a series of families clinically diagnosed with likely IGS, at least six displayed no evidence of mutations in CUBN or AMN. A genome-wide search for linkage followed by mutational analysis of candidate genes was performed in five of these families. A region in chromosome 11 showed evidence of linkage in four families. The gastric IF (GIF) gene located in this region harbored homozygous nonsense and missense mutations in these four families and in three additional families. The disease in these cases therefore should be classified as hereditary IF deficiency. Clinically, these patients resembled those with typical IGS; radiocobalamin absorption tests had been inconclusive regarding the nature of the defect. In the diagnosis of juvenile cobalamin deficiency, mutational analysis of the CUBN, AMN, and GIF genes provides a molecular characterization of the underlying defect and may be the diagnostic method of choice.

Project description:Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is characterized clinically by recurrent acute skin swelling, abdominal pain, and potentially life-threatening laryngeal edema. Three forms of HAE have been described. The classic forms, HAE types I and II, occur as a consequence of mutations in the C1-inhibitor gene. In contrast to HAE types I and II, HAE type III has been observed exclusively in women, where it appears to be correlated with conditions of high estrogen levels--for example, pregnancy or the use of oral contraceptives. A recent report proposed two missense mutations (c.1032C-->A and c.1032C-->G) in F12, the gene encoding human coagulation factor XII (FXII, or Hageman factor) as a possible cause of HAE type III. Here, we report the occurrence of the c.1032C-->A (p.Thr328Lys) mutation in an HAE type III-affected family of French origin. Investigation of the F12 gene in a large German family did not reveal a coding mutation. Haplotype analysis with use of microsatellite markers is compatible with locus heterogeneity in HAE type III. To shed more light on the pathogenic relevance of the HAE type III-associated p.Thr328Lys mutation, we compared FXII activity and plasma levels in patients carrying the mutation with that of healthy control individuals. Our data strongly suggest that p.Thr328Lys is a gain-of-function mutation that markedly increases FXII amidolytic activity but that does not alter FXII plasma levels. We conclude that enhanced FXII enzymatic plasma activity in female mutation carriers leads to enhanced kinin production, which results in angioedema. Transcription of F12 is positively regulated by estrogens, which may explain why only women are affected with HAE type III. The results of our study represent an important step toward an understanding of the molecular processes involved in HAE type III and provide diagnostic and possibly new therapeutic opportunities.
