Prothrombin A19911G polymorphism and the risk of venous thromboembolism

Abstract: Prothrombin 19911 A > G polymorphism was independently associated with a 1.5-fold increased risk of VTE and increased 2-fold the risk of VTE associated with FV Leiden, both increases statistically significant. No effect was observed in carriers of prothrombin 20210 GA, perhaps because this polymorphism has a stronger influence on plasma prothrombin levels than the prothrombin 19911 polymorphism.

“…22 Conversely, the association of the common rs13136516 with VT risk remains questionable. It has been observed in 2 case-control studies 23,24 but was not detected in recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS). [25][26][27][28][29] Preliminary works also suggested that the rs3136516-G allele could associate with increased risk of systemic lupus erythematous (SLE).…”

“…Von Ahsen et al [13] suggested that this polymorphism slightly increased the risk of VTE in carriers of the G20210A genotype, while Pérez-Ceballos et al [14] concluded that it increased the risk of VTE in carriers of Factor V Leiden as well as in those without thrombophilia in their study. …”

“…Several studies 5,12,13,14 have investigated the frequency of the FII A19911G variant in various populations; however, to date, the population from geographic area of Serbia has not been investigated, to our knowledge. Our results show that the FII A19911G variant does not represent a significant risk factor for the occurrence of DVT in the Serbian population.…”
