Abstract excerpt
Mild/moderate hemophilia A patients carrying certain mutations in the C1 domain of factor VIII (FVIII) have a higher risk of inhibitor occurrence. To analyze the mechanisms responsible for inhibitor development in such patients, we characterized FVIII-specific CD4(+) T-cell clones derived from a mild hemophilia A patient carrying an Arg2150His substitution in the C1 domain and who presented with a high titer...
