Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study was conducted to reveal the frequency of the low-frequency thrombophilic protein S K196E mutation, as well as the frequency of very rare nonsynonymous mutations in protein S, protein C, and antithrombin genes, in patients with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Although the low-frequency protein S K196E mutation can increase the risk for venous thromboembolism, it did not increase the risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes even in Japanese. To reveal the possible genetic link between preeclampsia and complement system, genetic analysis was conducted including 6 major complement genes. Six patients were enrolled and 4 patients were so far analyzed. There were no genetic variations associated with preeclampsia.
