Q

Why do you get hypercoag because of factor V Leiden?

A

In this disorder, the Leiden variant (form) of factor V cannot be inactivated (switched off) by activated protein C, and so clotting is encouraged

Q

(blank) thrombophilia is a genetically inherited disorder of blood clotting. It is a variant (mutated form) of human factor V that causes an increase in blood clotting (hypercoagulability)

5
Q

In the normal person, factor V functions as a cofactor to allow factor (blank) to activate an enzyme called thrombin. Thrombin in turn cleaves fibrinogen to form fibrin, which polymerizes to form the dense meshwork that makes up the majority of a clot. Activated protein C (aPC) is a natural anticoagulant that acts to limit the extent of clotting by cleaving and degrading factor V.
