IntroductionStudy aimed to determine the occurrence of 5 thrombosis-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) (n = 2630) and a control group (n = 2637) in the Czech population.MethodsThe following gene SNPs were detected in both groups: F5 Leiden (rs6025), F2 (rs1799963), FGG, fibrinogen gamma' (rs2066865), F11 (rs2289252) and ABO (rs8176719). Statistical analysis was performed using SAS statistical software with population genetics tools.ResultsHeterozygotes for F5 Leiden were associated with a 5.58-fold and homozygotes F5 Leiden with a 33.46-fold increased risk of VTE. At SNP rs1799963 (F2, prothrombin), only heterozygotes had a significant 3.9-fold increased risk of VTE. The findings at SNP rs2066865 (fibrinogen gamma', FGG) showed a 1.37-fold increased risk of VTE for FGG heterozygotes and a 1.77-fold increased risk of VTE for FGG homozygotes. There is also a significant 1.42-fold increase risk of VTE in the heterozygotes and a 1.80-fold increase risk of VTE in the homozygotes of the SNP rs 2289252 (F11). Further higher increases in the risk of VTE in both variants were found in patients with VTE at rs8176719 (ABO, non-O). It corresponds to a 2.2-fold increase in the risk of VTE in heterozygotes and a 3.5-fold increase in the risk of VTE in homozygotes.ConclusionBesides F5 Leiden and prothrombin mutation, the study suggests that the gene polymorphisms of FGG (rs2066865), F11 (rs2289252) and ABO (rs8176719) play a role as an independent heritable risk factor for VTE in the Czech population.

INTRODUCTION: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) are thought to share many common risk factors. Our study aimed to determine the frequencies of 5 thrombosis-related gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with VTE in patients with CTEPH (n 129) compared with a control group of healthy individuals without a history of VTE (n 2637). METHODS: The SNPs of the following genes were investigated: F5 (F V Leiden, rs6025), F2 prothrombin (rs1799963), fibrinogen gamma (FGG, rs2066865), F11 (rs2289252) and ABO (non-O, rs8176719) in both groups. RESULTS: The study found that the rs1799963 variant was more common in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) compared to the control group (p < .0001). The GA heterozygous variant showed a significant increase with an odds ratio (OR) of 4.480 (95% CI: 2.344-8.562) or a finding by maximum likelihood analysis (MLA) with p < .0001. Additionally, there was a notable increase in the rs8176719 variant with p < .0001 in CTEPH patients. Both the homozygous G/G variant and the heterozygous -/G variant also showed an increase, with OR of 4.2317 (95% CI: 2.45571-7.2919) and 2.4324 (95% CI: 1.46435-4.0403) respectively, or MLA (p < .0001 and p .0006). The study also revealed a higher prevalence of the heterozygous C/T variant of rs2289252 in CTEPH patients, with an OR of 1.5543 (95% CI: 1.02503-2.3568) or MLA (p .0379). CONCLUSION: The study suggests that the observed gene polymorphisms F2 (rs1799963), ABO (rs8176719), and F11 (rs2289252) may play a role as independent heritable risk factors in the development of CTEPH.

ACT-1014-6470 is an orally available complement factor 5a receptor 1 antagonist and a novel treatment option in auto-inflammatory diseases. The in vitro inhibition potential of ACT-1014-6470 on cytochrome P450 isozymes (CYPs) and its effect on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 substrates omeprazole and midazolam, respectively, in humans were assessed. In vitro assays were conducted with isoform-specific substrates in human liver microsomes. In an open-label, two-period, fixed-sequence cocktail study, single doses of 20 mg omeprazole and 2 mg midazolam were administered concomitantly to 20 healthy male subjects alone (treatment A) and after a single dose of 100 mg ACT-1014-6470 (treatment B) under fed conditions. Safety and PK assessments were performed. Geometric mean ratios (GMRs) and 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of noncompartmental PK parameters of treatment B versus treatment A were calculated. In vitro, no time-dependent inhibition was observed and the lowest inhibition constant of 4.3 μM ACT-1014-6470 was recorded for CYP2C19. In humans, GMRs (90% CI) of omeprazole PK were 1.9 (1.5-2.5) for maximum plasma concentration (Cmax ) and 1.9 (1.5-2.3) for area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 h (AUC0-12 h ). Midazolam PK showed GMRs (90% CI) of 1.1 (1.1-1.2) for Cmax and 1.5 (1.4-1.6) for AUC0-24 h . All treatments were well-tolerated. In line with in vitro results and regulatory risk factor calculation, the increased exposure to omeprazole and midazolam in humans after concomitant administration with a single dose of 100 mg ACT-1014-6470 reflected a weak inhibition of CYP2C19 and CYP3A4.

High incidence of thrombosis and venous thromboembolism was reported in patients with COVID-19. In this study, we focused on analysis of thrombophilic mutations performed without a standard DNA extraction step. In one hundred of COVID-19 positive outpatients, real-time PCR for Leiden mutation in the FV gene and G20210A mutation in the FII gene was carried out from DNA extracts and modified whole blood samples, and their cycle threshold (Ct) values were evaluated. In the extracts, healthy homozygotes (wt/wt), heterozygotes (M/wt), and homozygous carriers of Leiden mutation (M/M) provided median Ct values of 18.5, 19.4/22.0, and 20.9. In the whole blood, Ct values were 25.3 (wt/wt), 24.8/27.2 (M/wt), and 26.9 (M/M). Median Ct values for G20210A in the extracts were 19.6 for homozygotes (wt/wt), and 19.7/20.4 for heterozygous carriers. The whole blood samples provided Ct values of 23.9 in healthy homozygotes and 26.3/27.2 in heterozygotes for G20210A mutation. No homozygous subjects for G20210A and no double heterozygotes (for Leiden and G20210A mutations) were found. Despite significant differences in the Ct values, genotyping showed complete result concordance of the DNA extracts and the whole blood samples. The integrity and amplificability of DNA molecules in the whole blood samples during 28 days of deep freezing, interrupted by four cycles of thawing, did not significantly change. In conclusion, we demonstrated a new protocol for the detection of the thrombophilic mutations via real time PCR on the modified whole blood of COVID-19 positive patients. The blood modification was reliable, easy, cheap, and saving costs and turnaround time of the whole laboratory process.

Autologous cell therapy (ACT) is a new treatment for patients with no-option critical limb ischemia (NO-CLI). We evaluated the factors involved in the nonresponse to ACT in patients with CLI and diabetic foot. Diabetic patients (n = 72) with NO-CLI treated using ACT in our foot clinic over a period of 8 years were divided into responders (n = 57) and nonresponders (n = 15). Nonresponder was defined as an insufficient increase in transcutaneous oxygen pressure by <5 mm Hg, 3 months after ACT. Patient demographics, diabetes duration and treatment, and comorbidities as well as a cellular response to ACT, limb-related factors, and the presence of inherited thrombotic disorders were compared between the 2 groups. The main independent predictors for an impaired response to ACT were heterozygote Leiden mutation (OR 10.5; 95% CI, 1.72-4) and homozygote methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR 677) mutation (OR 3.36; 95% CI, 1.0-14.3) in stepwise logistic regression. Univariate analysis showed that lower mean protein C levels (P = .041) were present in nonresponders compared with responders. In conclusion, the significant predictors of an impaired response to ACT in diabetic patients with NO-CLI were inherited thrombotic disorders.

Thrombotic diathesis has been a well-known complication of oral contraceptive use for more than 50 years. This is true not only for venous thrombosis but also for an arterial one. The etiology is usually multifactorial and depends on several additional risk factors. We analyzed the prevalence of inherited and acquired thrombophilia in a cohort of 770 females who had a thrombotic event in association with oral contraceptive use (700 women with venous thromboembolism [VTE], 70 with stroke). Moreover, we tried to identify additional risk factors. Inherited thrombophilia was found in 44.5% with higher frequency in the cohort with VTE (42%) than in females with stroke (24%). The most frequent finding was factor V Leiden. Cigarette smoking was significantly more frequent in the group with stroke (50% vs 25%). The prevalence of cigarette smoking in the group with VTE did not exceed the frequency in general population. Women on oral contraceptive pills have higher risk of venous as well as arterial thrombosis. The risk of venous thrombosis is increased in females with inherited thrombophilia, whereas those with some additional acquired risk factors (especially smoking) may be predisposed to arterial thrombosis. However, the absolute risk of thrombosis in healthy women is low, far less than the risk of unintended pregnancy. Moreover, the risk may be reduced by keeping some rules before the prescription of the pills, healthy life style, and a proper choice of contraception.

The incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) increases with clustering of predisposing risk factors. In younger subjects with a positive family history of AMI occurring in relatives under the age of 60 years without obvious risk factors for atherosclerosis, there is a potential for strong inherited traits contributing to the risk of coronary disease. Among them there is increasing evidence that hereditary thrombophilia may play a major role. We present a unique case of a patient developing AMI at the age of 48 years. In this patient, without traditional risk factors for atherosclerosis, eight mutations and polymorphisms in six different genes were identified: polymorphism of factor V Leiden (1691 GA), factor II prothrombin (20210 GA), methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR, 677 CT and 1298 AC), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) polymorphism 4G/5G and glycoprotein VI (GP6, 13254 TC, Ser219Pro). All could be involved in the pathogenesis of the arterial thrombosis. Although such associations are extremely rare, it underlines the importance of thrombophilia assessment in cases with otherwise unexpected coronary disease occurring at young age. According to our experience, in the case of documented hereditary thrombophilia lineal relatives should be examined and/or followed up.

The aim of our study was to analyse inherited thrombotic disorders that influence the long-term outcome of PTA. Methods. Diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) treated by PTA in our centre between 2008 and 2011 were included in the study. Patients were divided into unsuccessful PTA group (75 patients), successful PTA group (58 patients), and control group (65 patients, with diabetes but no PAD). Diagnosis of inherited thrombotic disorders included mutation in factor V (Leiden), factor II (prothrombin), and mutation in genes for methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase-MTHFR (C677T and A1298C). Results. The genotypic frequency of Leiden allele G1691A was significantly associated with a risk of unsuccessful PTA in comparison with successful PTA group and control group (OR 8.8 (1.1-70.6), p = 0.041, and OR 9.8 (1.2-79.2), p = 0.032, resp.). However, we only observed a trend for the association of the prothrombin allele G20210A and risk of PTA failure. The frequencies of alleles of MTHFR 677 or 1298 did not differ significantly among the groups. Conclusion. Our study showed higher frequency of heterozygous form of Leiden mutation in diabetic patients with unsuccessful outcome of PTA in comparison with patients with successful PTA and diabetic patients without PAD.
