Thrombotic Disease in Hemophilic Patients: Is This a Paradox in a State of Hypocoagulability? Diagnostics (Basel) 2024; 14:286. [PMID: 38337802 PMCID: PMC10854955 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics14030286] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2023] [Revised: 01/20/2024] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Hemophilia patients have a deficiency in or dysfunction of clotting factors, which can lead to a bleeding tendency. However, paradoxically, some hemophilia patients may also be at an increased risk of developing thrombotic events such as deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. The pathophysiology of thrombosis in hemophilia patients is not fully understood, but it is thought to involve a complex interplay of various factors, including the severity of the hemophilia, the presence of other risk factors such as obesity, smoking, or the use of hormonal therapies, and the presence of certain genetic mutations that increase the risk of thrombosis. In addition, it has been suggested that the use of clotting factor replacement therapy, which is a standard treatment for hemophilia, may also contribute to the development of thrombosis in some cases.

Investigating the influence of LCT rs3754689 polymorphism on inhibitor development in Iranian and Afghan patients with severe hemophilia A. Blood Coagul Fibrinolysis 2019; 31:11-15. [PMID: 31644449 DOI: 10.1097/mbc.0000000000000860] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
: Development of alloantibodies against factor VIII (FVIII) in patients with severe hemophilia A is the main complication of FVIII replacement therapy. There are many studies indicating several genetic factors associated with inhibitor development. A recent study showed that there is a correlation between the risk of inhibitor development and LCT rs3754689 polymorphism among Italian hemophilia A patients. The aim of this study was to speculate whether LCT rs3754689 polymorphism is correlated to inhibitor development in Afghan and Iranian patients. In addition, we assessed the association of F8 gene mutations and inhibitor development in Iranian patients. This case-control study was conducted on 33 severe hemophilia A patients with inhibitor and 119 samples without inhibitor. Genotyping was performed by Sanger sequencing, inverse and multiplex PCR. According to the obtained data, we found a significant correlation between LCT rs3754689 polymorphism and the risk of inhibitor development in Afghan patients (observed risk, 0.11; 95% confidence interval, 0.01-0.88; P = 0.012). Among Iranian patients, rs3754689 polymorphism showed no significant association with inhibitor development against FVIII (P > 0.05). However, we found a significant correlation between the risk of inhibitor formation and large deletions and nonsense mutations in F8 gene among Iranian patients (observed risk, 7.25; 95% confidence interval, 1.93-27.18; P = 0.003). Lack of association of rs3754689 polymorphism in Iranian population shows the various effects of genetic markers in different populations. More studies in different ethnicities or larger sample sizes are recommended.

Relationship Between Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha, Interleukin-10, Factor II and Factor V with Risk of Inhibitor Development in Patients with Severe Hemophilia A. Cardiovasc Hematol Disord Drug Targets 2019; 19:228-232. [PMID: 30727925 DOI: 10.2174/1871529x19666190206152315] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2018] [Revised: 12/28/2018] [Accepted: 01/16/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND About one-fourth of patients with hemophilia A (HA) develop alloantibodies against factor (F) VIII, as the main treatment challenge. Here, we assessed the relationship between interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), FII and FV polymorphisms and risk of inhibitor formation in patients with severe HA. METHODS We divided 39 patients with severe HA in two groups of case (n: 19) and control (n: 20). Genotyping was performed by multiplex amplification tetra arms refractory mutation systempolymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR) and PCR-restriction fragment-length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). RESULTS TNFα rs1800629 G>A polymorphism decreased the risk of inhibitor development in codominant and dominant inheritance pattern. Moreover, TNFα rs1800629 A allele, decrease the risk of inhibitor formation, while IL10 rs1800896 A>G, FV rs6025 G>A, and FII rs1799963 G>A polymorphisms were not associated with risk of inhibitor development. CONCLUSION It seems that TNFα rs1800629 G>A polymorphism decreased the risk of inhibitor formation in Iranian patients with HA.
