Abstract
Thrombosis is a multifaceted process involving various molecular components, including the coagulation cascade, platelet activation, platelet-endothelial interaction, anticoagulant signaling pathways, inflammatory mediators, genetic factors and the involvement of various cells such as endothelial cells, platelets and leukocytes. A comprehensive understanding of the molecular signaling pathways and cell interactions that play a role in thrombosis is essential for the development of precise therapeutic strategies for the treatment and prevention of thrombotic diseases. Ongoing research in this field is constantly uncovering new molecular players and pathways that offer opportunities for more precise interventions in the clinical setting. These molecular insights into thrombosis form the basis for the development of targeted therapeutic approaches for the treatment and prevention of thrombotic disease. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the pathogenesis of thrombosis and to explore new therapeutic options.

Res Pract Thromb Haemost 2024; 8:102343. [PMID: 38476459 PMCID: PMC10926210 DOI: 10.1016/j.rpth.2024.102343] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Data on the proportion of venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk attributed to prothrombotic genotypes in men and women are limited. Objectives We aimed to estimate the population attributable fraction (PAF) of VTE for recognized, common prothrombotic genotypes in men and women using a population-based case cohort. Methods Cases with incident VTE (n = 1493) and a randomly sampled subcohort (n = 13,069) were derived from the Tromsø study (1994-2012) and the Trøndelag Health Study (1995-2008) cohorts. DNA samples were genotyped for 17 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously associated with VTE. PAFs with 95% bias-corrected CIs (based on 10,000 bootstrap samples) were estimated for SNPs significantly associated with VTE, and a 6-SNP cumulative model was constructed for both sexes. Results In women, the individual PAFs for SNPs included in the cumulative model were 16.9% for ABO (rs8176719), 17.6% for F11 (rs2036914), 15.1% for F11 (rs2289252), 8.7% for FVL (rs6025), 6.0% for FGG (rs2066865), and 0.2% for F2 (rs1799963). The cumulative PAF for this 6-SNP model was 37.8%. In men, the individual PAFs for SNPs included in the cumulative model were 21.3% for ABO, 12.2% for F11 (rs2036914), 10.4% for F11 (rs2289252), 7.5% for FVL, 7.8% for FGG, and 1.1% for F2. This resulted in a cumulative PAF in men of 51.9%. Conclusion Our findings in a Norwegian population suggest that 52% and 38% of the VTEs can be attributed to known prothrombotic genotypes in men and women, respectively.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous risk loci for venous thromboembolism (VTE), but it is challenging to decipher the underlying mechanisms. We employed an integrative analytical pipeline to transform genetic associations to identify novel plasma proteins for VTE. Proteome-wide association studies (PWAS) were determined by functional summary-based imputation leveraging data from a genome-wide association analysis (14,429 VTE patients, 267,037 controls), blood proteomes (1348 cases), followed by Mendelian randomization, Bayesian colocalization, protein-protein interaction, and pathway enrichment analysis. Twenty genetically regulated circulating protein abundances (F2, F11, ABO, PLCG2, LRP4, PLEK, KLKB1, PROC, KNG1, THBS2, SERPINA1, RARRES2, CEL, GP6, SERPINE2, SERPINA10, OBP2B, EFEMP1, F5, and MSR1) were associated with VTE. Of these 13 proteins demonstrated Mendelian randomized correlations. Six proteins (F2, F11, PLEK, SERPINA1, RARRES2, and SERPINE2) had strong support in colocalization analysis. Utilizing multidimensional data, this study suggests PLEK, SERPINA1, and SERPINE2 as compelling proteins that may provide key hints for future research and possible diagnostic and therapeutic targets for VTE.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1224462. [PMID: 37745125 PMCID: PMC10511882 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1224462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Venous thrombosis (VT) is multifactorial trait that contributes to the global burden of cardiovascular diseases. Although abundant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) provoke the susceptibility of an individual to VT, research has found that the five most strongly associated SNPs, namely, rs6025 (F5 Leiden), rs2066865 (FGG), rs2036914 (F11), rs8176719 (ABO), and rs1799963 (F2), play the greatest role. Association and risk prediction models are rarely established by using merely the five strongly associated SNPs. This study aims to explore the combined VT risk predictability of the five SNPs and well-known non-genetic VT risk factors such as aging and obesity in the Hungarian population. Methods SNPs were genotyped in the VT group (n = 298) and control group (n = 400). Associations were established using standard genetic models. Genetic risk scores (GRS) [unweighted GRS (unGRS), weighted GRS (wGRS)] were also computed. Correspondingly, the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) for genetic and non-genetic risk factors were estimated to explore their VT risk predictability in the study population. Results rs6025 was the most prevalent VT risk allele in the Hungarian population. Its risk allele frequency was 3.52-fold higher in the VT group than that in the control group [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 3.52, 95% CI: 2.50-4.95]. Using all genetic models, we found that rs6025 and rs2036914 remained significantly associated with VT risk after multiple correction testing was performed. However, rs8176719 remained statistically significant only in the multiplicative (AOR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.07-1.64) and genotypic models (AOR = 1.77, 95% CI: 1.14-2.73). In addition, rs2066865 lost its significant association with VT risk after multiple correction testing was performed. Conversely, the prothrombin mutation (rs1799963) did not show any significant association. The AUC of Leiden mutation (rs6025) showed better discriminative accuracy than that of other SNPs (AUC = 0.62, 95% CI: 0.57-0.66). The wGRS was a better predictor for VT than the unGRS (AUC = 0.67 vs. 0.65). Furthermore, combining genetic and non-genetic VT risk factors significantly increased the AUC to 0.89 with statistically significant differences (Z = 3.924, p < 0.0001). Conclusions Our study revealed that the five strongly associated SNPs combined with non-genetic factors could efficiently predict individual VT risk susceptibility. The combined model was the best predictor of VT risk, so stratifying high-risk individuals based on their genetic profiling and well-known non-modifiable VT risk factors was important for the effective and efficient utilization of VT risk preventive and control measures. Furthermore, we urged further study that compares the VT risk predictability in the Hungarian population using the formerly discovered VT SNPs with the novel strongly associated VT SNPs.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolism, that consists of the interrelated conditions deep-vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is an under-appreciated vascular disease. In Western regions, approximately 1 in 12 individuals will be diagnosed with venous thromboembolism in their lifetime. Rates of venous thromboembolism are lower in Asia, but data from other regions are sparse. Numerous risk factors for venous thromboembolism have been identified, which can be classified as acute or subacute triggers (provoking factors that increase the risk of venous thromboembolism) and basal or acquired risk factors (which can be modifiable or static). Approximately 20% of individuals who have a venous thromboembolism event die within 1 year (although often from the provoking condition), and complications are common among survivors. Fortunately, opportunities exist for primordial prevention (prevention of the development of underlying risk factors), primary prevention (management of risk factors among individuals at high risk of the condition) and secondary prevention (prevention of recurrent events) of venous thromboembolism. In this Review, we describe the epidemiology of venous thromboembolism, including the incidence, risk factors, outcomes and opportunities for prevention. Meaningful health disparities exist in both the incidence and outcomes of venous thromboembolism. We also discuss these disparities as well as opportunities to reduce them.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, and weight) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose control) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The Statistical Update presents the latest data on a range of major clinical heart and circulatory disease conditions (including stroke, congenital heart disease, rhythm disorders, subclinical atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, heart failure, valvular disease, venous disease, and peripheral artery disease) and the associated outcomes (including quality of care, procedures, and economic costs). METHODS The American Heart Association, through its Epidemiology and Prevention Statistics Committee, continuously monitors and evaluates sources of data on heart disease and stroke in the United States to provide the most current information available in the annual Statistical Update with review of published literature through the year before writing. The 2023 Statistical Update is the product of a full year's worth of effort in 2022 by dedicated volunteer clinicians and scientists, committed government professionals, and American Heart Association staff members. The American Heart Association strives to further understand and help heal health problems inflicted by structural racism, a public health crisis that can significantly damage physical and mental health and perpetuate disparities in access to health care, education, income, housing, and several other factors vital to healthy lives. This year's edition includes additional COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) publications, as well as data on the monitoring and benefits of cardiovascular health in the population, with an enhanced focus on health equity across several key domains. RESULTS Each of the chapters in the Statistical Update focuses on a different topic related to heart disease and stroke statistics. CONCLUSIONS The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policymakers, media professionals, clinicians, health care administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on these factors and conditions.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a subgroup of venous thromboembolism (VTE), is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality globally, accounting for 60,000-100,000 fatalities per year. It affects around 0.1 percent of the population each year. In Sudanese patients with DVT, this study looked for probable harmful single nucleotide polymorphisms in exon 10 of the factor V gene.
Method:
Thirty blood samples were obtained from previously diagnosed DVT patients at Omdurman teaching hospital throughout the period of 16 August to 25 October 2018, as part of a descriptive cross-sectional research in Khartoum state. Exon 10 was amplified by PCR using sequence-specific primers after DNA was extracted using the guanidine chloride procedure. The fifteen best bands' PCR products were sequenced in both directions (BGI Company). Bioinformatics techniques were used to examine the sequences (Finch TV, BLAST, and Codon Code alignment).
Result:
The presence of a missense mutation (rs6020) in the factor V Leiden gene was discovered in 40% (6/15) of the patients in this investigation. In five cases, this mutation was heterozygous, whereas in one patient, it was homozygous. In the other nine cases, no mutations were found.
Conclusion:
rs6020 is more prevalent in the Sudanese population than other types of mutations. rs6020 polymorphism has a strong association with deep vein thrombosis in the Sudanese population. Further investigation of this mutation amongst larger Sudanese population is required in order to support this finding as well as to understand its clinical significance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a life threating complication in intensive care units (ICUs). This study aimed to pool the prevalence of VTE and examined the risk factors of VTE in intensive care patients worldwide. METHODS A systematic search in PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science databases was performed. Studies reported that the data on the prevalence of VTE or relevant information were synthesized using a random-effects model. RESULTS A total of 42 studies reporting on 27,344 patients were included. The pooled prevalence of VTE was 10.0% (95% CI: 7.0-14.0%). Subgroup and metaregression analyses found that thromboprophylaxis strategy, simplified acute physiology score (SAPS II), age, study quality, sample size, malignancy, sex, spinal cord injury and injury severity score (ISS) moderated the prevalence of VTE in intensive care patients. CONCLUSIONS The present meta-analysis revealed a high prevalence of VTE in critically ill patients. The risk factors of VTE included thromboprophylaxis strategy, SAPS II, age, malignancy, sex, spinal cord injury and ISS. Therefore, we need to pay more attention to high-risk populations of VTE in intensive care patients.

Abstract
Background This is the first nationwide segregation analysis that aimed to determine whether familial venous thromboembolism (VTE) is attributable to inheritance and/or shared environment, and the possible mode of inheritance. Methods and Results The Swedish Multi‐Generation Register was linked to the Swedish patient register for the period 1964 to 2015. Three generational families of Swedish‐born individuals were identified. Heritability was examined using Falconer regression. Complex segregation analysis was conducted using the Statistical Analysis for Genetic Epidemiology software (version 6.4, 64‐bit Linux). Among the 4 301 174 relatives from 450 558 pedigrees, 177 865 (52% women) individuals were affected with VTE. VTE occurred in 2 or more affected relatives in 61 217 (13.6%) of the pedigrees. Heritability showed age and sex dependence with higher heritability for men and young individuals. In 18 933 pedigrees, VTE occurred only in the first generation and was not inherited. Segregation analysis was performed in the remaining 42 284 pedigrees with inherited VTE and included 939 192 individuals. Prevalence constraints were imposed in the models to allow for the selection of the pedigrees analyzed. The sporadic nongenetic model could be discarded. The major‐type‐only model, with a correlation structure compatible with some polygenic effects, was the preferred model. Among the Mendelian models, the mixed codominant (plus polygenic) model was preferred. Conclusions This nationwide segregation analysis of VTE supports a genetic cause of the familial aggregation of VTE. Heritability was higher for men and younger individuals, suggesting a Carter effect, in agreement with a multifactorial threshold inheritance.

Natae SF, Kósa Z, Sándor J, Merzah MA, Bereczky Z, Pikó P, Ádány R, Fiatal S. The Higher Prevalence of Venous Thromboembolism in the Hungarian Roma Population Could Be Due to Elevated Genetic Risk and Stronger Gene-Environmental Interactions. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:647416. [PMID: 34765649 PMCID: PMC8576195 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.647416] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2020] [Accepted: 09/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Interactions between genetic and environmental risk factors (GxE) contribute to an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Understanding how these factors interact provides insight for the early identification of at-risk groups within a population and creates an opportunity to apply appropriate preventive and curative measures. Objective: To estimate and compare GxE for VTE risk in the general Hungarian and Roma populations. Methods: The study was based on data extracted from a database consisting of results previously obtained from a complex health survey with three pillars (questionnaire-based, physical, and laboratory examinations) involving 406 general Hungarian and 395 Roma subjects. DNA was genotyped for rs121909567 (SERPINC1), rs1799963 (F2), rs2036914 (F11), rs2066865 (FGG), rs6025 (F5), and rs8176719 (ABO) polymorphisms. After allele frequency comparisons, the odds ratio (OR) was calculated for individual SNPs. Furthermore, genetic risk scores (weighted GRS, unweighted GRS) were computed to estimate the joint effect of the genetic factors. Multivariable linear regression analysis was applied to test the impact of GxE on VTE risk after interaction terms were created between genetic and VTE risk factors [diabetes mellitus (DM), cancer, chronic kidney diseases (CKD), coronary artery diseases (CAD), migraine, depression, obesity, total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein (HDL-C), triglyceride (TG), and smoking]. Results: Interestingly, the rs121909567 (SERPINC1, ATBp3 mutation) SNP was not present in the general population at all. However, the risk allele frequency was 1% among the Roma population, which might suggest a founder effect in this minority. This polymorphism multiplicatively interacted with CAD, CKD, cancer, DM, depression, migraine, and obesity. Even though interactions were not statistically significant, the trend of interaction showed the probability of an incremental VTE risk among the Roma population. The risk of VTE was 4.7 times higher (p > 0.05) for Roma subjects who had ≥3 wGRS (median value) compared with individuals having lower wGRS values but lower for the general subjects (OR = 3.1 × 10−8). Additionally, the risk of VTE was 6.6 times higher in the Roma population that had ≥3 risk alleles (median value) than in individuals with the 0–1 risk allele, and the overall risk was much higher for the Roma population (OR = 6.6; p > 0.05) than for the general Hungarian population (OR = 1.5; p > 0.05). Five positive and significant GxE interactions were identified in the Roma population. The risk of VTE was higher among depressive Roma subjects who carried the risk variant rs2036914 (β = 0.819, p = 0.02); however, this interaction was not significant for the general subjects. The joint presence of high levels of LDL-C and rs2066865 (FGG) increased the VTE risk only among Roma individuals (β = 0.389, p = 0.002). The possibility of VTE risk increment, as a result of a multiplicative interaction between rs8176719 (ABO) and cancer, was identified, which was higher for the Roma population (β = 0.370, p < 0.001) than for the general population (β = −0.042, p = 0.6). The VTE risk increased in the Roma population (β = 0.280, p = 0.001), but was higher in the general population (β = 0.423, p = 0.001) as a result of the multiplicative interaction between CAD and rs2036914 (F11). The presence of a multiplicative interaction between rs2066865 (FGG) and CAD increased the VTE risk for the Roma population (β = 0.143, p = 0.046) but not for the general population (β = −0.329, p < 0.001). Conclusions: rs121909567 (SERPINC1, ATBp3) was confirmed as a founder mutation in the Roma population. Our study revealed some evidence on the burden of the joint presence of genetic and environmental risk factors on VTE, although the finding is highly subjected to the selection and observational biases due to the very small number of VTE cases and the observational nature of the study design, respectively. As a result of higher genetic load and GxE interactions, this minority Roma population is at higher risk of VTE than the general Hungarian population. Thus, our results suggest the need for an intensive search for the rs121909567 (SERPINC1; ATBp3) founder mutation, which might be an important factor for the assessment of thrombotic disease susceptibility among the Roma population. In addition, we strongly recommend further studies among a large number of VTE cases to explore the more precise impact of genetic and environmental risk factors on VTE in the study populations.

Abstract
The immunoglobulin receptor GPVI (glycoprotein VI) is selectively expressed on megakaryocytes and platelets and is currently recognized as a receptor for not only collagen but also a variety of plasma and vascular proteins, including fibrin, fibrinogen, laminin, fibronectin, and galectin-3. Deficiency of GPVI is protective in mouse models of experimental thrombosis, pulmonary thromboembolism as well as in thromboinflammation, suggesting a role of GPVI in arterial and venous thrombus formation. In humans, platelet GPVI deficiency is associated with a mild bleeding phenotype, whereas a common variant rs1613662 in the GP6 gene is considered a risk factor for venous thromboembolism. However, preclinical studies on the inhibition of GPVI-ligand interactions are focused on arterial thrombotic complications. In this review we discuss the emerging evidence for GPVI in venous thrombus formation and leukocyte-dependent thromboinflammation, extending to venous thromboembolism, pulmonary thromboembolism, and cancer metastasis. We also recapitulate indications for circulating soluble GPVI as a biomarker of thrombosis-related complications. Collectively, we conclude that the current evidence suggests that platelet GPVI is also a suitable cotarget in the prevention of venous thrombosis due to its role in thrombus consolidation and platelet-leukocyte complex formation.

Abstract
Background Existing evidence indicates Black patients have higher incidence of pulmonary embolism (PE) and PE‐related mortality compared with other races/ethnicities, yet disparities in presenting severity and treatment remain incompletely understood. Methods and Results We retrospectively queried a multihospital healthcare system for all hospitalizations for acute PE (2012–2019). Of 10 329 hospitalizations, 8743 met inclusion criteria. Black patients (14.3%) were significantly younger (54.6±17.8 versus 63.1±16.6 years; P<0.001) and more female (56.1% versus 51.6%; P=0.003) compared with White patients. Using ordinal regression, Black race was significantly associated with higher PE severity after matching 1:3 on age and sex (1210:3264; odds ratio [OR], 1.08; 95% CI, 1.03–1.14), adjusting for clinical (OR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.01–1.27), and socioeconomic (OR, 1.05; 95% CI, 1.05–1.35) characteristics. Among intermediate and high‐severity PE, Black race was associated with a decreased risk of intervention controlling for the competing risk of mortality and censoring on hospital discharge. This effect was modified by PE severity (P value <0.001), with a lower and higher risk of intervention for intermediate and high‐severity PE, respectively. Race was not associated with in‐hospital mortality (OR, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.69–1.02). Conclusions Black patients hospitalized with PE are younger with a higher severity of disease compared with White patients. Although Black patients are less likely to receive an intervention overall, this differed depending on PE severity with higher risk of intervention only for life‐threatening PE. This suggests nuanced racial disparities in management of PE and highlights the complexities of healthcare inequalities.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common and potentially fatal complication in
cancer patients. Although several genetic risk factors related to thrombophilia
have been identified, their contributions for the occurrence of VTE in cancer
patients have conflicting results. The aim of this study was to evaluated the
gene polymorphisms of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T and
plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) 4G/5G in lung cancer patients, with
and without VTE, and the combined effect on the risk of VTE. 92 lung cancer
patients diagnosed with VTE (VTE group) and 122 lung cancer patients without VTE
(non-VTE group) were enrolled in the study. The gene polymorphisms were analyzed
by the method of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length
polymorphism. Gene mutation of factor V Leiden was not detected both in non-VTE
group and VTE group. The frequency of MTHFR C677T homozygous mutation in VTE
group was 25.00%, higher than that in the non-VTE group without statistical
difference. It was found that the PAI-1 4G4G genotype is associated with a
higher risk of VTE (OR: 2.62, 95%CI: 1.19-5.75). Interestingly, the interaction
between MTHFR C677T and PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphisms showed that the coexistence of
the 2 homozygous mutation could further increase the risk of VTE. In conclusion,
PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism may be an increased risk factor for VTE among lung
cancer patients in Chinese population. The homozygous MTHFR C677T mutation may
be not a risk factor for VTE but increases the risk, accompanied with PAI-1 4G5G
genotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, and weight) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose control) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The Statistical Update presents the latest data on a range of major clinical heart and circulatory disease conditions (including stroke, congenital heart disease, rhythm disorders, subclinical atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, heart failure, valvular disease, venous disease, and peripheral artery disease) and the associated outcomes (including quality of care, procedures, and economic costs). METHODS The American Heart Association, through its Statistics Committee, continuously monitors and evaluates sources of data on heart disease and stroke in the United States to provide the most current information available in the annual Statistical Update. The 2021 Statistical Update is the product of a full year's worth of effort by dedicated volunteer clinicians and scientists, committed government professionals, and American Heart Association staff members. This year's edition includes data on the monitoring and benefits of cardiovascular health in the population, an enhanced focus on social determinants of health, adverse pregnancy outcomes, vascular contributions to brain health, the global burden of cardiovascular disease, and further evidence-based approaches to changing behaviors related to cardiovascular disease. RESULTS Each of the 27 chapters in the Statistical Update focuses on a different topic related to heart disease and stroke statistics. CONCLUSIONS The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policy makers, media professionals, clinicians, health care administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on these factors and conditions.

Abstract
Clinical thrombophilia is the consequence of multiple gene and/or environment interactions. Thrombophilia screening requires a targeted patient with specific indication, in which a finding would have implications. Carrying out a thrombophilia examination in the physician's practice is often a cause of uncertainty and concern. The concerns begin in choosing the right patient to be examined, are associated with the time of investigation, with the choice of analysis, the test-material and with the correct interpretation of the results. Difficulties, which can influence the results, can occur with both organization and blood sampling. As common for any analysis, pre-analytical, analytical and post-analytical factors should be considered, as well as the possibility of false positive or false negative results. Finally, recommendation of correct therapeutic and prophylactic measures for the patient and his relatives is an additional focus. In this article we want to provide-on the basis of the evidence and personal experience-the theory of thrombophilia-investigation, the indications for testing, as well as practical recommendations for treatment options.

Abstract
Most agonists stimulate platelet Ca2+ rises via G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) or ITAM-linked receptors (ILRs). Well studied are the GPCRs stimulated by the soluble agonists thrombin (PAR1, PAR4), ADP (P2Y1, P2Y12), and thromboxane A2 (TP), signaling via phospholipase (PLC)β isoforms. The platelet ILRs glycoprotein VI (GPVI), C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC2), and FcγRIIa are stimulated by adhesive ligands or antibody complexes and signal via tyrosine protein kinases and PLCγ isoforms. Marked differences exist between the GPCR- and ILR-induced Ca2+ signaling in: (i) dependency of tyrosine phosphorylation; (ii) oscillatory versus continued Ca2+ rises by mobilization from the endoplasmic reticulum; and (iii) smaller or larger role of extracellular Ca2+ entry via STIM1/ORAI1. Co-stimulation of both types of receptors, especially by thrombin (PAR1/4) and collagen (GPVI), leads to a highly enforced Ca2+ rise, involving mitochondrial Ca2+ release, which activates the ion and phospholipid channel, anoctamin-6. This highly Ca2+-dependent process causes swelling, ballooning, and phosphatidylserine expression, establishing a unique platelet population swinging between vital and necrotic (procoagulant 'zombie' platelets). Additionally, the high Ca2+ status of procoagulant platelets induces a set of additional events: (i) Ca2+ dependent cleavage of signaling proteins and receptors via calpain and ADAM isoforms; (ii) microvesiculation; (iii) enhanced coagulation factor binding; and (iv) fibrin-coat formation involving transglutaminases. Given the additive roles of GPCR and ILR in Ca2+ signal generation, high-throughput screening of biomolecules or small molecules based on Ca2+ flux measurements provides a promising way to find new inhibitors interfering with prolonged high Ca2+, phosphatidylserine expression, and hence platelet procoagulant activity.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2020; 9:antiox9121198. [PMID: 33260536 PMCID: PMC7761039 DOI: 10.3390/antiox9121198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2020] [Revised: 11/18/2020] [Accepted: 11/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
High-density lipoprotein (HDL), in addition to promoting reverse cholesterol transport, possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and antithrombotic activities. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1), carried on HDL in the blood, can contribute to these antiatherogenic activities. The PON1-Q192R polymorphism involves a change from glutamine (Q variant) to arginine (R variant) at position 192 of the PON1 protein and affects its enzymatic activity. The molecular basis of PON1 association with cardiovascular and neurological diseases is not fully understood. To get insight into the function of PON1 in human disease, we examined how genetic attenuation of PON1 levels/activity affect plasma proteomes of mice and humans. Healthy participants (48.9 years old, 50% women) were randomly recruited from the Poznań population. Four-month-old Pon1−/− (n = 17) and Pon1+/+ (n = 8) mice (50% female) were used in these experiments. Plasma proteomes were analyzed using label-free mass spectrometry. Bioinformatics analysis was carried out using the Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) resources. PON1-Q192R polymorphism and Pon1−/− genotype induced similar changes in plasma proteomes of humans and mice, respectively. The top molecular network, identified by IPA, affected by these changes involved proteins participating in lipoprotein metabolism. Other PON1 genotype-dependent proteomic changes affect different biological networks in humans and mice: “cardiovascular, neurological disease, organismal injury/abnormalities” in PON1-192QQ humans and “humoral immune response, inflammatory response, protein synthesis” and “cell-to-cell signaling/interaction, hematological system development/function, immune cell trafficking” in Pon1−/− mice. Our findings suggest that PON1 interacts with molecular pathways involved in lipoprotein metabolism, acute/inflammatory response, and complement/blood coagulation that are essential for blood homeostasis. Modulation of those interactions by the PON1 genotype can account for its association with cardiovascular and neurological diseases.

Abstract
Understanding the pathophysiology of SARS-CoV-2 infection is critical for therapeutic and public health strategies. Viral-host interactions can guide discovery of disease regulators, and protein structure function analysis points to several immune pathways, including complement and coagulation, as targets of coronaviruses. To determine whether conditions associated with dysregulated complement or coagulation systems impact disease, we performed a retrospective observational study and found that history of macular degeneration (a proxy for complement-activation disorders) and history of coagulation disorders (thrombocytopenia, thrombosis and hemorrhage) are risk factors for SARS-CoV-2-associated morbidity and mortality-effects that are independent of age, sex or history of smoking. Transcriptional profiling of nasopharyngeal swabs demonstrated that in addition to type-I interferon and interleukin-6-dependent inflammatory responses, infection results in robust engagement of the complement and coagulation pathways. Finally, in a candidate-driven genetic association study of severe SARS-CoV-2 disease, we identified putative complement and coagulation-associated loci including missense, eQTL and sQTL variants of critical complement and coagulation regulators. In addition to providing evidence that complement function modulates SARS-CoV-2 infection outcome, the data point to putative transcriptional genetic markers of susceptibility. The results highlight the value of using a multimodal analytical approach to reveal determinants and predictors of immunity, susceptibility and clinical outcome associated with infection.

Abstract
Genetic risk factors are important for the occurrence and prognosis of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The studies of thrombophilia families are important for dissecting the genetic background of the thrombotic disease. We conducted the systematic review of all published family-based studies on VTE genetics across all racial groups through PubMed and Embase prior to 13th April 2020. This systematic review of 287 families (including 225 Caucasian families, 52 East Asian families, and families of other ethnicities) revealed a total of 21 different genes; the five most reported mutated genes were F5 (88/287, 30.7%), SERPINC1 (67/287, 23.3%), PROC (65/287, 22.6%), F2 (40/287, 13.9%) and PROS1 (48/287, 16.7%). For Caucasian families, F5 mutations were most frequently reported at 37.8% (85/225), while PROS1 mutations were most frequently reported, at 40.4% (21/52), for East Asian families (Chinese, Japanese and Korean). Factor V Leiden was reported more frequently in Caucasians than in East Asians. Missense mutations were reported frequently in the SERPINC1, PROC and PROS1 genes. In conclusion, our study found the most likely mutated genes associated with VTE among different ethnic groups and provided indications for VTE genetic testing and research in the future.

Cystathionine β-synthase deficiency: different changes in proteomes of thrombosis-resistant Cbs -/- mice and thrombosis-prone CBS -/- humans. Sci Rep 2020; 10:10726. [PMID: 32612202 PMCID: PMC7329814 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-67672-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2020] [Accepted: 05/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Cystathionine β-synthase (CBS)-deficient patients are prone to vascular thrombosis. In contrast, Cbs-/- mice show no abnormalities in blood coagulation. To identify molecular basis underlying these disparately different thrombotic phenotypes, we analyzed plasma proteomes of Cbs-/- vs. Cbs+/+ mice (8-month-old, 12/group, sex-matched) and CBS-/- vs. CBS+/+ humans (37 ± 7-year-old, 10-14/group, sex-matched) using label-free mass spectrometry. We identified 117 and 41 differentiating plasma proteins in Cbs-/- mice and CBS-/- humans, respectively. Twenty-one proteins were shared between CBS-/- humans and Cbs-/- mice, with sixteen changed in the opposite direction. Proteins involved in blood coagulation and complement/coagulation cascades represented a greater fraction of the differentiating proteins in CBS-/- patients (51%) than in Cbs-/- mice (21%). Top canonical pathways, identified by Ingenuity Pathways Analysis, such as LXR/RXR, FXR/RXR activation (- log[P-value] = 30-31) and atherosclerosis signaling (- log[P-value] = 10-11) were similarly affected in Cbs-/- mice and CBS-/- humans. The Coagulation System was affected stronger in CBS-/- humans than in Cbs-/- mice (- log[P-value] = 15 vs. 10, respectively) while acute phase response and complement system were affected stronger in Cbs-/- mice (- log[P-value] = 33 and 22, respectively) than in humans (- log[P-value] = 22 and 6, respectively). Other pathways, including IL-7 signaling and B cell development were affected only in Cbs-/- mice. Taken together, our findings suggest that differences in these processes, in particular in the Coagulation System, could account for the thrombotic phenotype in CBS-/- patients and the absence of thrombosis in Cbs-/- mice. Overall, our findings suggest that Cbs-/- mice have a better adaptive response to protect from prothrombotic effects of hyperhomocysteinemia than CBS-/- humans.

Abstract
Exomic rare variant polymorphisms (c. 300 000) were analysed in the Scripps Venous Thrombosis (VTE) registry (subjects aged <55 years). Besides coagulation factor V (F5) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), family with sequence similarity 134, member B (FAM134B; rs78314670, Arg127Cys) and myosin heavy chain 8 (MYH8; rs111567318, Glu1838Ala) SNPs were associated with recurrent VTE (n = 34 cases) (false discovery rate-adjusted P < 0·05). FAM134B (rs78314670) was associated with low plasma levels of anticoagulant glucosylceramide. Analysis of 50 chr17p13.1 MYH rare SNPs (clustered skeletal myosin heavy chain genes) using collapsing methods was associated with recurrent VTE (P = 2·70 ×10-16 ). When intravenously injected, skeletal muscle myosin was pro-coagulant in a haemophilia mouse tail bleeding model. Thus, FAM134B and MYH genetic variants are plausibly linked to VTE risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is increased after a myocardial infarction (MI). Some prothrombotic genotypes associated with VTE have also been associated with risk of MI. Whether prothrombotic single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) further increase the risk of VTE in MI patients is scarcely investigated. AIM To study the combined effect of MI and prothrombotic SNPs on the risk of VTE. METHODS Cases with incident VTE (n = 641) and a randomly sampled subcohort weighted for age (n = 1761) were identified from the 4 to 6 surveys of the Tromsø Study (1994-2012). DNA was genotyped for rs8176719 (ABO), rs6025 (F5), rs1799963 (F2), rs2066865 (FGG), and rs2036914 (F11). Hazard ratios (HRs) for VTE with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated by categories of risk alleles and MI status. RESULTS Patients with MI had a 1.4-fold increased risk of VTE, and adjustments for the 5 SNPs, either alone or in combination, did not affect this relationship (adjusted HR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.12-2.07). In subjects without MI, an increased risk of VTE was observed for each of the individual SNPs (≥1 vs. 0 risk alleles), and the risk increased linearly with increasing number of risk alleles in the 5-SNP score. The combination of MI and prothrombotic genotypes, either as individual SNPs or in the 5-SNP score, did not result in an excess risk of VTE. CONCLUSION The relationship between MI and VTE was not explained by these 5 prothrombotic genotypes. Prothrombotic genotypes did not yield an excess risk of VTE in patients with MI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports on the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, and weight) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose control) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The Statistical Update presents the latest data on a range of major clinical heart and circulatory disease conditions (including stroke, congenital heart disease, rhythm disorders, subclinical atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, heart failure, valvular disease, venous disease, and peripheral artery disease) and the associated outcomes (including quality of care, procedures, and economic costs). METHODS The American Heart Association, through its Statistics Committee, continuously monitors and evaluates sources of data on heart disease and stroke in the United States to provide the most current information available in the annual Statistical Update. The 2020 Statistical Update is the product of a full year's worth of effort by dedicated volunteer clinicians and scientists, committed government professionals, and American Heart Association staff members. This year's edition includes data on the monitoring and benefits of cardiovascular health in the population, metrics to assess and monitor healthy diets, an enhanced focus on social determinants of health, a focus on the global burden of cardiovascular disease, and further evidence-based approaches to changing behaviors, implementation strategies, and implications of the American Heart Association's 2020 Impact Goals. RESULTS Each of the 26 chapters in the Statistical Update focuses on a different topic related to heart disease and stroke statistics. CONCLUSIONS The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policy makers, media professionals, clinicians, healthcare administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on these factors and conditions.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to assess the cost effectiveness of the Pill Protect (PP) genetic screening test for venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk compared with standard of care (SoC), for women considering combined hormonal contraceptives (CHCs) in Switzerland. METHODS A two-part microsimulation model was developed to estimate VTE events, costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) associated with the PP and SoC strategies. In the first portion of the model, a cohort of 1 million Swiss first-time seekers of a CHC were simulated. It was determined whether each women would receive a CHC or non-CHC by using prescribing patterns elicited from a modified Delphi study. These results formed the basis of the SoC strategy. For the PP strategy, a PP test was included and the results considered in addition to SoC practice. Each woman then entered a Markov model that captured morbidity and mortality over a lifetime. The risk of having a VTE was derived from the risk algorithm that underpins the PP test. The remaining model inputs relating to population characteristics, costs, health resource use, mortality and utilities were derived from published studies or national sources. The model was validated and calibrated to align with population-based studies. Extensive uncertainty analyses were conducted. RESULTS From a Swiss health system perspective, the PP strategy in comparison with the SoC strategy generated an additional CHF 231, and gained 0.003 QALYs per woman, leading to an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of CHF 76 610 per QALY gained. Assuming a threshold of CHF 100 000 per QALY gained, the PP strategy is likely to be cost effective. Our results were generally robust to variations in the parameter values. CONCLUSIONS The PP test may be cost effective in Switzerland for screening women seeking CHCs for their risk of VTE based on the current evidence.

Abstract
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired hemolytic disease with thrombosis as a major complication. The mechanism of thrombosis and related risk factors in PNH patients are still not well characterized. We retrospectively enrolled 99 patients with newly diagnosed PNH at our institute from 2011 to 2016. According to binary logistic regression model analysis, we first identified four baseline clinical risk factors which may be associated with incidence of thrombosis in the PNH cohort, including PNH clone sizes (fluorescent aerolysin of neutrophil) ≤ 80 (OR 1.056, 95%CI 1.016-1.097, P = 0.005), hemoglobin ≤ 75 g/L (OR 4.202, 95%CI 0.984-17.954, P = 0.053), platelet > 100 × 109/L (OR 6.547, 95%CI 1.490-28.767, P = 0.013) and rs495828 = G (OR 5.243, 95%CI 1.314-20.916, P = 0.019). These independent risk factors were combined together to develop a risk model to evaluate thrombosis risk (AUC = 0.756, 95%CI 0.607-0.905, P < 0.001). Our risk model revealed a higher cumulative incidence of thrombosis and an earlier thrombosis events in PNH patients with high risk (risk score ≥ 23) compared with those with low risk (risk score < 23, P < 0.001 and P = 0.043, respectively). Although with some limitations, we set up a prediction model for thrombosis risk in patients with PNH for the first time, but it needed to be verified in a prospective study with larger patients and longer follow-up time in the future.

Impact of prothrombotic genotypes on the association between family history of myocardial infarction and venous thromboembolism. J Thromb Haemost 2019; 17:1363-1371. [PMID: 31124268 DOI: 10.1111/jth.14493] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2019] [Accepted: 05/15/2019] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Family history of myocardial infarction (FHMI) is known to increase the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of prothrombotic genotypes on the association between FHMI and VTE in a case-cohort recruited from a general population. METHODS Cases with a first VTE (n = 1493) and a subcohort (n = 13 072) were sampled from the Tromsø study (1994-2012) and the Nord-Trøndelag health (HUNT) study (1995-2008). The DNA samples were genotyped for rs8176719 (ABO), rs6025 (F5), rs1799963 (F2), rs2066865 (FGG), and rs2036914 (F11). Participants with missing information on risk alleles (n = 175), FHMI (n = 2769), and BMI (n = 52) were excluded. Cox regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for VTE. To explore the role of prothrombotic genotypes for the association between FHMI and VTE, we (a) included the genotypes in the multivariable-adjusted models and (b) assessed the joint effects between FHMI and genotypes on VTE risk. RESULTS The FHMI was associated with a 1.3-fold increased risk of VTE (HR 1.32, 95% CI 1.16-1.50) and 1.5-fold increased risk of unprovoked VTE (HR 1.47, 95% CI 1.22-1.78). The risk of VTE by FHMI did not alter after adjustment for the five genotypes. The combination of FHMI and the different prothrombotic genotypes did not result in an excess VTE risk (i.e. no biological interaction). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that the risk of VTE by FHMI is not explained by rs8176719 (ABO), rs6025 (F5), rs1799963 (F2), rs2066865 (FGG), and rs2036914 (F11). The combination of FHMI with prothrombotic genotypes had an additive effect on VTE risk.

Abstract
The clinical venous thromboembolism (VTE) pattern often shows wide heterogeneity within relatives of a VTE-affected family, although they carry the same thrombophilia defect. It is then mandatory to develop additional tools for assessing VTE risk in families with thrombophilia. This study aims to assess whether common environmental and genetic risk factors for VTE contribute to explain this heterogeneity. A total of 2,214 relatives from 651 families with known inherited thrombophilia were recruited at the referral center for thrombophilia in Marseilles, France, from 1986 to 2013. A thrombophilia screening was systematically performed in all included relatives. According to the severity of the thrombophilia defect, individuals were split into three groups: no familial defect, mild thrombophilia, and severe thrombophilia. In addition, common genetic factors (ABO blood group and 11 polymorphisms selected on the basis of their association with VTE in the general population) were genotyped. Furthermore, body mass index and smoking were collected. VTE incidence was 1.74, 3.64, and 6.40 per 1,000 person-years in individuals with no familial defect, mild thrombophilia, and severe thrombophilia, respectively. Five common risk factors were associated with VTE in this population: obesity, smoking, ABO blood group, and
F11
_rs2036914 and
FGG
_rs2066865 polymorphisms. These common factors were then included into a three-level risk score. The score was highly efficient for assessing VTE risk in mild thrombophilia patients by identifying two groups with different VTE risk; individuals with low score had the same risk as individuals with no familial defect whereas individuals with high score had the same risk as individuals with severe thrombophilia. An overall score including the five items plus the thrombophilia status was built and displayed an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.702 for discriminating VTE and non-VTE relatives. In conclusion, integrating common environmental and genetic risk factors improved VTE risk assessment in relatives from families with thrombophilia.

Prevalence of antiphospholipid (aPL) antibodies among patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Intern Emerg Med 2019; 14:521-527.

Abstract
How thrombophilia may contribute to the development of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is unknown. We searched on PubMed and EMBASE (until 15 April 2018), studies on CTEPH reporting data on inherited or acquired thrombophilia. Starting from 367 articles mentioning the search terms, 347 were excluded mainly as duplicate articles or articles not in English. After reading the full text of remaining articles, ten were excluded for being reviews, editorials, letters or case reports, and two were further removed from the analysis because of the potential selection bias. All the eight considered studies provided the proportion of patients positive for antiphospholipid (aPL) antibodies. The crude rate of aPL in CTPEH patients is 11.8% (95% CI 10.09-13.8%). The meta-analysis considering the weighted mean proportion and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) yields a rate of aPL antibody-positive profile of 12.06% (95% CI 8.12-16.65%) among the patients with CTEPH in the random effects model (I2 76.33%; 95% CI 52.75-88.14%, p = 0.0001). The sensibility analysis confirms the result. No predictors of heterogeneity are found in a meta-regression analysis. Our results suggest that aPL antibodies are frequently associated with CTEPH underlining the need to test for aPL antibodies in young patients with "idiopathic" and "provoked" PE caused by mild provoking risk factors.

Genetic profiling revealed an increased risk of venous thrombosis in the Hungarian Roma population. Thromb Res 2019; 179:37-44.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Besides modifiable risk factors, genetic susceptibility may also explain the high cardiovascular disease burden of the Roma population. OBJECTIVES Aim of this study was to define the genetic susceptibility of Hungarian Roma to venous thrombosis (VT) and comparing it to that of the general population. METHODS Fifty-two SNPs associated with VT (in F2, F5, F9, F11, F15, FGA, FGB, FGG, CYP4V2, KLKB1 and vWF) were selected and analyzed in the group of Roma (N = 962) and general (N = 1492) subjects collected by cross-sectional studies. Allele frequencies and genetic risk scores (GRS, unweighted and weighted) were computed for the study groups and compared to estimate the joint effects of SNPs. RESULTS The majority of the susceptible alleles were more prevalent in the Roma population, and both GRS and wGRS were found to be significantly higher in Roma than in the general population (GRS: 41.83 ± 5.78 vs. 41.04 ± 6.04; wGRS: 7.78 ± 1.28 vs. 7.46 ± 1.33, p = .001). Only 2.39% of subjects in the Roma population were in the bottom fifth of the wGRS (wGRS≤0.19) compared with 3.62% of those in the general population (p = .080); 2.88% of the general subjects were in the top fifth of the wGRS (wGRS≥10.02), while 4.26% of the Roma population were (p = .066). CONCLUSION In conclusion, the Roma population seems to have increased genetic susceptibility to VT. This might have important implications in the future in identifying possible new opportunities for targeted prevention and treatment for those subgroups in the populations who are at greater risk for VT development.

Abstract
The kallikrein/kinin system, an intravascular biochemical pathway that includes several proteins involved in the contact activation system of coagulation, renin-angiotensin activation and inflammation, may or may not play a role in venous thromboembolism (VTE) occurrence. Within a large prospective population-based study in the United States, we conducted a nested case-cohort study to test the hypothesis that higher plasma levels of high molecular weight kininogen (HK) or prekallikrein are associated with greater VTE incidence. We related baseline enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay measures of HK and prekallikrein in 1993 to 1995 to incidence VTE of the lower extremity (n = 612) through 2015 (mean follow-up = 18 years). We found no evidence that plasma HK or prekallikrein was associated positively with incident VTE. HK, in fact, was associated inversely and significantly with VTE in most proportional hazards regression models. For example, the hazard ratio of VTE per standard deviation higher HK concentration was 0.88 (95% confidence interval = 0.81, 0.97), after adjustment for several VTE risk factors. Our findings suggest that plasma levels of these factors do not determine the risk of VTE in the general population.

Abstract
: The current study aims to evaluate, for the first time in the Portuguese population, the association with venous thromboembolism (VTE) of five well known and replicated VTE-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes ABO, F11 and FGG. A population sample of 96 cases of VTE, without strong or moderate inherited or noninherited predisposing factors, and 148 healthy controls were analyzed for variants in genes ABO (rs2519093; rs8176719), F11 (rs2036914; rs2289252) and FGG (rs2066865). SNPs were genotyped by real-time PCR with TaqMan probes or by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Logistic regression, adjusted for age and sex, revealed nominal significant association between the ABO rs8176719 C-allele and VTE in the additive model [odds ratio (OR) 1.62; P = 0.015] and significant association in the dominant model (OR 2.68; P = 0.001). A nominal significant association with VTE was found for the FGG rs2066865 minor T-allele in the dominant model (OR 1.82; P = 0.034). A genetic risk score created by using subjects who carry one or any combination of two to four risk alleles showed a cumulative effect on VTE: OR 2.31 (P = 0.025) and OR 3.23 (P = 0.0016), respectively, compared with individuals who have none of the risk alleles. Our data suggest that SNPs ABO rs8176719 and FGG rs2066865 may contribute individually to the VTE susceptibility in the Portuguese population. A genetic risk score combining the VTE-associated FGG and ABO alleles improved the risk prediction of VTE.

Abstract
Various risk factors, including high age, female gender, obesity and certain genetic defects have been linked to venous thrombosis. A Taiwanese family with venous thrombosis of unknown cause were enrolled in the present study. In this pedigree, two women without any specific underlying diseases suffered from venous thrombotic events at the same age. No specific risk factors or coagulation abnormalities were identified. The main proband's younger brother also had intestinal arterial thrombosis at 54 years of age. Therefore, it was hypothesized that familial genetic defects may be the cause of venous thrombosis within this family. Blood samples collected from certain members of this pedigree were subjected to whole-exome sequencing, and three genetic variants were identified, including a missense variant of solute carrier family 4 member 1 (SLC4A1) (c.388G>A), a deletion on glycoprotein Ib platelet α subunit (GP1BA) (c.1322_1344del23) and an insertion in the splice site of homeostatic iron regulator (HFE). To date, none of these three genetic variants have been reported to be associated with venous thrombosis, to the best of our knowledge. The present study suggests that these genetic variants of SLC4A1, GP1BA and HFE may be associated with venous thrombosis in an Asian pedigree.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide as a food additive (E171) has been demonstrated to facilitate growth of chemically induced colorectal tumours in vivo and induce transcriptomic changes suggestive of an immune system impairment and cancer development. The present study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms behind the tumour stimulatory effects of E171 in combination with azoxymethane (AOM)/dextran sodium sulphate (DSS) and compare these results to a recent study performed under the same conditions with E171 only. BALB/c mice underwent exposure to 5 mg/kgbw/day of E171 by gavage for 2, 7, 14, and 21 days. Whole genome mRNA microarray analyses on the distal colon were performed. The results show that E171 induced a downregulation of genes involved in the innate and adaptive immune system, suggesting impairment of this system. In addition, over time, signalling genes involved in colorectal cancer and other types of cancers were modulated. In relation to cancer development, effects potentially associated with oxidative stress were observed through modulation of genes related to antioxidant production. E171 affected genes involved in biotransformation of xenobiotics which can form reactive intermediates resulting in toxicological effects. These transcriptomics data reflect the early biological responses induced by E171 which precede tumour formation in an AOM/DSS mouse model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Family studies have shown a strong heritability component for venous thromboembolism (VTE), but established genetic risk factors are present in only half of VTE patients. AIM To identify genetic risk factors in two large families with unexplained hereditary VTE. METHODS We performed whole exome sequencing in 10 affected relatives of two unrelated families with an unexplained tendency for VTE. We prioritized variants shared by all affected relatives from both families, and evaluated these in the remaining affected and unaffected individuals. We prioritized variants based on 3 different filter strategies: variants within candidate genes, rare variants across the exome, and SNPs present in patients with familial VTE and with low frequency in the general population. We used whole exome sequencing data available from 96 unrelated VTE cases with a positive family history of VTE from an affected sib study (the GIFT study) to identify additional carriers and compared the risk-allele frequencies with the general population. Variants found in only one individual were also retained for further analysis. Finally, we assessed the association of these variants with VTE in a population-based case-control study (the MEGA study) with 4,291 cases and 4,866 controls. RESULTS Six variants remained as putative disease-risk candidates. These variants are located in 6 genes spread among 3 different loci: 2p21 (PLEKHH2 NM_172069:c.3105T>C, LRPPRC rs372371276, SRBD1 rs34959371), 5q35.2 (UNC5A NM_133369.2:c.1869+23C>A), and 17q25.1 (GPRC5C rs142232982, RAB37 rs556450784). In GIFT, additional carriers were identified only for the variants located in the 2p21 locus. In MEGA, additional carriers for several of these variants were identified in both cases and controls, without a difference in prevalence; no carrier of the UNC5A variant was present. CONCLUSION Despite sequencing of several individuals from two thrombophilic families resulting in 6 candidate variants, we were unable to confirm their relevance as novel thrombophilic defects.

Abstract
Thrombosis is one of the most common causes of mortality in Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), but the predisposing factors for thrombosis are yet to be defined. In this study, we outline the clinical characters and the susceptible genes which lead to thrombotic formation in 104 patients with PNH. The results displayed that the genotypes with minor alleles of rs495828 or rs2519093 in the ABO gene were associated with high risk to thrombus formation (OR 5.95, 95% CI 1.90-18.65 and OR 6.3, 95% CI 2.01-19.79, respectively). Further, the TT haplotype was associated with a significant increased risk of thrombosis (OR=3.25, 95%CI 1.42-7.39). Multivariate regression analysis showed larger PNH clone and genotypes with rs495828/rs2519093 minor allele as independent risk factors for thrombosis in PNH. Some patients who came back for follow-up were tested for the plasma levels of vWF and factor VIII. Patients carrying the rs495828/rs2519093 minor allele had a significant higher level of vWF and factor VIII compared with those carrying the major allele. Therefore, we found for the first time that the rs495828/rs2519093 polymorphism represent an independent prognostic factor in PNH patients for thrombus formation, probably by increasing the vWF and factor VIII.

Abstract
Background Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a complex multifactorial disease influenced by genetic and environmental risk factors. An example for the latter is the regular use of combined oral contraceptives (CC), which increases the risk to develop VTE by 3 to 7 fold, depending on estrogen dosage and the type of progestin present in the pill. One out of 1'000 women using CC develops thrombosis, often with life-long consequences; a risk assessment is therefore necessary prior to such treatment. Currently known clinical risk factors associated with VTE development in general are routinely checked by medical doctors, however they are far from being sufficient for risk prediction, even when combined with genetic tests for Factor V Leiden and Factor II G20210A variants. Thus, clinical and notably genetic risk factors specific to the development of thrombosis associated with the use of CC in particular should be identified. Methods and findings Step-wise (logistic) model selection was applied to a population of 1622 women using CC, half of whom (794) had developed a thromboembolic event while using contraceptives. 46 polymorphisms and clinical parameters were tested in the model selection and a specific combination of 4 clinical risk factors and 9 polymorphisms were identified. Among the 9 polymorphisms, there are two novel genetic polymorphisms (rs1799853 and rs4379368) that had not been previously associated with the development of thromboembolic event. This new prediction model outperforms (AUC 0.71, 95% CI 0.69–0.74) previously published models for general thromboembolic events in a cross-validation setting. Further validation in independent populations should be envisaged. Conclusion We identified two new genetic variants associated to VTE development, as well as a robust prediction model to assess the risk of thrombosis for women using combined oral contraceptives. This model outperforms current medical practice as well as previously published models and is the first model specific to CC use.

Abstract
The biochemical characterisation of the proteolytic pathways that constitute blood coagulation was one of the most relevant achievements in biomedical research during the second half of the 20th century. Understanding these pathways was of crucial importance for improving global health through application in haemostasis and thrombosis pathologies. Immediately after the cloning of the genes corresponding to these proteins, mutations were discovered in them that were associated with imbalances in haemostasis. Later, the importance of coagulation pathways in other pathological processes was demonstrated, such as in atherosclerosis and inflammation, both essential processes involved in vascular disease. In the present review we evaluate the concepts that have allowed us to reach the integrated vision on coagulation that we have today. The thrombo-inflammation model encompassing these aspects includes a pivotal role for the proteases of the coagulation pathway as well as the regulatory proteins thereof. These concepts illustrate the importance of the coagulation cascade in cardiovascular pathology, not only in thrombotic processes, but also in atherosclerotic processes and in the response to ischaemia-reperfusion injury, making it a central mechanism in cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND UK Biobank is the world's largest repository for phenotypic and genotypic information for individuals of European ancestry. Here, we leverage UK Biobank to understand the inherited basis for venous thromboembolism (VTE), a leading cause of cardiovascular mortality. METHODS AND RESULTS We identified 3290 VTE cases and 116 868 controls through billing code-based phenotyping. We performed a genome-wide association study for VTE with ≈9 000 000 imputed single-nucleotide polymorphisms. We performed a phenome-wide association study for a genetic risk score of 10 VTE-associated variants. To assess whether obesity is a causal factor for VTE, we performed Mendelian randomization analysis using a genetic risk score instrument composed of 68 body mass index-associated variants. The genome-wide association study for VTE replicated previous findings at the F5, F2, ABO, F11, and FGG loci. We identified 1 new locus-ZFPM2 rs4602861-at genome-wide significance (odds ratio, 1.11; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-1.15; P=4.9×10-10) and a new independent variant at the F2 locus (rs3136516; odds ratio, 1.10; 95% confidence interval, 1.06-1.13; P=7.60×10-9). In a phenome-wide association study, a 10 single-nucleotide polymorphism VTE genetic risk score was associated with coronary artery disease (odds ratio, 1.08; 95% confidence interval, 1.05-1.10 per unit increase in VTE odds; P=1.08×10-9). In a Mendelian randomization analysis, genetically elevated body mass index (a 1 SD increase) was associated with 57% higher risk of VTE (odds ratio, 1.57; 95% confidence interval, 1.08-1.97; P=0.003). CONCLUSIONS For common diseases such as VTE, biobanks provide potential to perform genetic discovery, explore the phenotypic consequences for disease-associated variants, and test causal inference.
