| Objective To explore the clinical phenotype and genotype in three Chinese families affected with anticoagulant protein deficiency and thrombosis.Methods Plasma levels of Protein C activity(PC:A)and Protein S activity(PS:A)were detected with luminescent substrate.Protein C and Protein S genes were detected with polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and direct sequencing.Results A 565C>T mutation of Protein C gene was found in three family including the proband(III-10)and other three family members(II-5、II-6、III-9)in family 1,the proband(II-3)and other 3 family members(I-1、I-2、III-1)in family 2 and the proband(II-1)and one family members(I-1)in family 3.Two mutation((C-A)+520 to termination and c.2001A>G)of Protein S gene were found in the proband(III-10)and other six family members(II-5、II-7、II-9、II-10、III-9、III-15)In family 1.Conclusion A mutation(c.565C>T)of PROC gene and two mutation((C-A)+520 to termination and c.2001A>G)of PROS1 gene found in this study may significantly increase the risk of phlebothrombosis. |
