Abstract excerpt
Pseudo-homozygous APC resistance, the condition resulting from compound heterozygosity for FV R506Q (FV Leiden) and quantitative FV deficiency, provides a natural model to study the interaction between procoagulant and anticoagulant defects. This paper reports a complete FV characterization of a pseudo-homozygous APC resistant thrombotic patient. The expression of the patient's non-Leiden gene was found to be...
