Luciana Werneck Zuccherato and Colleagues on A3 domain of FVIII in Severe Hemophilia A
RPTH Journal shared on LinkedIn:
”This new study sequenced 265 individuals with severe hemophilia A from an admixed population and found 97 unique F8 mutations, 33% were novel.
Intron 22 inversions increased inhibitor risk nearly 5-fold, while missense variants were protective.
Mutations clustered differently by inhibitor status (A3 vs A1 domains), underscoring how F8 genotype shapes immune response.
These insights may guide development of less immunogenic FVIII therapies.”
