Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23031601. [PMID: 35163523 PMCID: PMC8835808 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23031601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2021] [Revised: 01/27/2022] [Accepted: 01/28/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Strokes within pediatric populations are considered to be the 10th leading cause of death in the United States of America, with over half of such events occurring in children younger than one year of life. The multifactorial etiopathology that has an influence on stroke development and occurrence signify the importance of the timely recognition of both modifiable and non-modifiable factors for adequate diagnostic and treatment approaches. The early recognition of a stroke and stroke risk in children has the potential to advance the application of neuroprotective, thrombolytic, and antithrombotic interventions and rehabilitation strategies to the earliest possible timepoints after the onset of a stroke, improving the outcomes and quality of life for affected children and their families. The recent development of molecular genetic methods has greatly facilitated the analysis and diagnosis of single-gene disorders. In this review, the most significant single gene disorders associated with pediatric stroke are presented, along with specific therapeutic options whenever they exist. Besides monogenic disorders that may present with stroke as a first symptom, genetic polymorphisms may contribute to the risk of pediatric and perinatal stroke. The most frequently studied genetic risk factors are several common polymorphisms in genes associated with thrombophilia; these genes code for proteins that are part of the coagulation cascade, fibrolysis, homocystein metabolism, lipid metabolism, or platelets. Single polymorphism frequencies may not be sufficient to completely explain the stroke causality and an analysis of several genotype combinations is a more promising approach. The recent steps forward in our understanding of the disorders underlying strokes has given us a next generation of therapeutics and therapeutic targets by which to improve stroke survival, protect or rebuild neuronal connections in the brain, and enhance neural function. Advances in DNA sequencing and the development of new tools to correct human gene mutations have brought genetic analysis and gene therapy into the focus of investigations for new therapeutic options for stroke patients.

Abstract
Inherited thrombophilias are well-established predisposing factors for venous thromboembolism, but their role in arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) in children, remains unclear. The association between SERPINE1 rs1799889 polymorphism and AIS in children was evaluated by several studies, whereas the results were conflicting. Thus, we performed this meta-analysis to combine and analyze the available studies in order to provide a more accurate result on the association. PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, SciELO, MedRxiv, China Biology Medicine Disk, DeepDyve, CNKI, and Web of Science were used to identify all relevant articles published up to 30 November 2020, without any restrictions on ethnicity. Summary odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to determine the strength of the associations. A total of eight case-control studies with 600 cases and 2,156 controls were selected. No significant association between SERPINE1 rs1799889 polymorphism and AIS in children susceptibility was noted. In the stratified analyses by ethnicity, source of controls, genotyping methods, and age groups, there was still no significant association between SERPINE1 rs1799889 polymorphism and AIS risk in children. This study suggested that SERPINE1 rs1799889 polymorphism might be not related to etiology of AIS in children. Moreover, well-designed, large-scale and multicenter clinical studies are required to improve and validate these results.Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/15257770.2021.1966798 .

Abstract
The role of genetic risk factors for ischemic stroke seems to be in particular significance in pediatric patients. Numerous polymorphic variants of genes encoding proteins, that is, plasminogen activator inhibitor as well as coagulation factors, involved in the coagulation cascade may be related to arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) both in adults and children. We performed systematic review and 2 meta-analyses to assess possible correlations between common plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) and FXIII polymorphisms and ischemic stroke in children. We searched PubMed to identify available data published before October 2018 using appropriate keywords and inclusion criteria. Finally, 12 case-control studies were included: 8 analyzing PAI-1 polymorphism (600 children with stroke and 2152 controls) and 4-FXIII polymorphism (358 children with stroke and 451 controls). R and Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software were used to analyze the impact of the particular polymorphism in the following models: dominant, recessive, additive, and allelic. No publication bias was observed in both meta-analyses. In case of PAI-1 polymorphism, we observed no relation between 4G4G genotype of 4G allele and ischemic stroke in children. We also demonstrated lack of association between FXIII polymorphism and childhood ischemic stroke. In children with AIS, the PAI-1 and FXIII polymorphisms are not risk factors for the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The rupture of a brain aneurysm causes bleeding in the subarachnoid space and is known as aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH). In our study, we evaluated the association of factor XIII polymorphism and the risk of Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) in South Indian population. METHODS The study was performed in 200 subjects with aSAH and 205 healthy control subjects. Genotyping of rs5985(c.103G > T (p.Val35Leu)) and rs5982(c.1694C > T (p.Pro564Leu)) polymorphism was performed by Taqman® allelic discrimination assay. RESULTS In our study, Val/Leu genotype frequency was higher in control subjects (18%) compared to aSAH patients (9%).The Val/Leu genotype was associated with lower risk of aSAH (OR = 0.48, 95%CI = 0.26-0.88, p = 0.02). When compared with Val allele, Leu allele was significantly associated with lower risk of aSAH (OR = 0.55, 95%CI = 0.32-0.95, p = 0.03). In subtyping, we found a significant association of Leu/Leu genotype with the Basilar top aneurysm (OR = 3.59, 95%CI = 1.11-11.64, p = 0.03). In c.1694C > T (p.Pro565Leu) variant, Pro/Pro Vs Pro/Leu genotype (OR = 2.06, 95%CI = 1.10-3.85, p = 0.02) was significantly associated with higher risk of aSAH. The 564Leu allelic frequency in aSAH patients (36%) was higher when compared with that in healthy controls (30%) in our study. When allele frequency (Pro Vs Leu) was compared, 564Leu allele was found to be significantly associated with higher aSAH risk (OR = 1.36, 95%CI = 1.01-1.83, p = 0.04). (OR = 1.36, 95%CI = 1.01-1.83, p = 0.04). Regarding rs5985 and rs5982, significant association was found in the log-additive model (OR = 0.57, 95%CI = 0.33-0.97, p = 0.034; OR = 1.32, 95%CI = 1.00-1.72, p = 0.043). CONCLUSION These results suggest that 34Leu allele was a protective factor for lower risk of aSAH whereas 564Leu allele was associated with higher risk of aSAH in South Indian population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital thrombophilia is associated with an increased intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) risk among newborns, but it may also play a protective role. The role of genetic polymorphisms involved in the coagulation pathway of IVH pathogenesis is probably a consequence of an increased risk of thrombosis in the fine blood vessels in the germinal matrix region. MATERIAL AND METHODS The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible relationship between Factor V (FV) 1691G>A, Factor II (FII) 20210G>A mutations and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) 677C>T; 1298A>C and Factor XIII (FXIII) 103G>T gene polymorphisms and the occurrence of IVH in 100 infants born from 24 + 0 to 32 + 0 weeks of gestation, born from singleton pregnancy, before 32 + 0 weeks of gestation, exposed to antenatal steroid therapy, and without congenital abnormalities. RESULTS IVH developed 45 (45%) infants, including 15 (33.33%) diagnosed with IVH stage I, 20 (42.22%) with stage II, 8 (17.77%) with stage III, and 3 (6.66%) with stage IV. Analysis showed a prevalence 4.5 times higher of IVH stages II to IV in infants with the genotype CC (OR 4511 (1147-17.75); p = 0.026) of MTHFR 1298A>C gene polymorphism. Our investigation did not confirm any significant prevalence of IVH development in other studied mutations/polymorphisms. CONCLUSIONS This study confirmed that the MTHFR 1298A>C polymorphism is associated with the risk of IVH. IVH is a significant problem for preterm infants. In addition to little progress in preventing IVH in preterm babies, substantial research that is focused on understanding the etiology, mechanism, and risk factors for IVH is imperative. In the era of personalized medicine, identification of genetic risk factors creates opportunities to generate preventative strategies.

Abstract
Despite the identification of a wide range of inherited and acquired risk factors for arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) in children, genetic risk factors are incompletely characterized and may vary among different populations. We investigated the role of individual and combined inherited prothrombotic and intermediate-risk factors in 73 children with perinatal (n = 35) and childhood AIS (n = 38) and 100 age- and sex-matched controls. Ten polymorphisms in 8 candidate genes encoding coagulation and fibrinolytic proteins (factor V [FV] Leiden, FV HR2, factor II [FII] G20210A, β-fibrinogen [β-FBG]-455G>A, factor XIII [FXIII]-A p.Val34Leu, plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 4G/5G), homocysteine metabolism (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase [MTHFR] C677T, MTHFR A1298C), and intermediate-risk factors (angiotensin-converting enzyme I/D, apoE ∊2-4) were detected using a multilocus genotyping assay. Allele-specific polymerase chain reaction was used for the determination of human platelet alloantigens (HPA-1, HPA-2, HPA-3, and HPA-5). Factor V Leiden was associated with an increased risk of AIS (odds ratio [OR]: 4.72, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.22-18.27) and perinatal AIS (OR: 8.29, 95% CI: 1.95-35.24). Human platelet antigen-3b allele carriers had a 2-fold lower risk of AIS (OR: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.26-0.98) and perinatal AIS (OR: 0.40, 95% CI: 0.18-0.92). A 2.21-fold increased risk of childhood AIS (95% CI: 1.03-4.73) was identified in FXIII-A Leu34 allele carriers. Combined FV Leiden/FV HR2, FV Leiden/MTHFR A1298C, FV Leiden/MTHFR C677T/MTHFR A1298C, and FV Leiden/FV HR2/MTHFR A1298C heterozygosity was identified in children with AIS but not in controls, which revealed a statistically significant difference. This case-control study shows that besides already documented association between FV Leiden and AIS, other previously unreported polymorphisms (FXIII-A p.Val34Leu, HPA-3) and several genotype combinations that always include heterozygous FV Leiden can be related to AIS in Croatian population.

Abstract
The incidence of arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) in childhood (about 2-13 per 100,000 children a year) is much lower than the incidence in the adult population. Still, adverse outcomes of acute brain ischemia in childhood include death (10% of AIS children), neurological sequel, epileptic seizures (over 50%) and recurrence (over 20%). The knowledge of childhood stroke etiopathogenesis is still insufficient and the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures--controversial. Risk factors for childhood stroke differ from those observed in adults due to differing exposure to external risk factors. The most frequently reported risk factors for pediatric ischemic stroke are cerebral arteriopathies and vascular malformations, cardiac diseases, infections, traumas and metabolic diseases. Because of its multifactorial etiology pediatric AIS probably has a multigenic inheritance pattern. The genetic susceptibility to AIS may be determined by specific polymorphic variants encoding markers of hemostasis regulation and they are some of the most important targets in searching for genetic determinants in pediatric AIS. The authors have reviewed the recent literature on risk factors of childhood ischemic stroke with the focus on genetic factors like polymorphisms of genes encoding coagulation factors II, V, VII and XIII, MTHFR, fibrinogen beta, and compared them with the results performed in adult patients.

Abstract
Stroke in children is a heterogeneous disorder. Over 100 risk factors for stroke have been reported and genetic predisposition to stroke has been established. The most frequently reported risk factors are congenital heart malformations, hemolytic anemias, collagen vascular diseases, some rare inborn metabolic disorders, trauma, infection and thrombophilia. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of investigated inherited prothrombotic risk factors in children with first ischemic stroke. Various prothrombotic risk factors have been investigated in pediatric stroke including elevated homocysteine and lipoprotein (a), antithrombin, protein C and protein S deficiency, Factor V Leiden, Factor II G20210A and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 4G/5G polymorphism. Despite similar criteria for inclusion of different studies in meta-analyses investigating first ischemic stroke in children, the obtained results were not consistent for all prothrombotic risk factors. The discrepancies found could be explained by methodological issues like different sample sizes, patient populations included and lack of controls. In order to provide the necessary power for randomized control trials, multi-center, multi-national approaches like International Pediatric Stroke Study have been initiated with the aim to describe risk factors for childhood stroke and explore their relationship with presentation, age, geography, and infarct characteristics. Although it is evident from numerous studies that the frequency of inherited prothrombotic factors is increased in pediatric stroke, single thrombophilia does not fully explain stroke in a child as it represents only a mild risk factor. Further studies are needed, as improved understanding of underlying mechanisms will improve primary and secondary prevention of childhood stroke.
