Pathophysiology of factor V Leiden gene mutation. Factor V Leiden is an autosomal dominant genetic condition that exhibits incomplete penetrance, i.e. not every person who has the mutation develops the disease. The condition results in a factor V variant that cannot be as easily degraded by activated protein C.

Congenital factor X deficiency is also extremely rare, affecting an estimated 1 in 1,000,000. [23] A point mutation in the gene encoding factor V can lead to a hypercoagulability disorder called factor V Leiden. In factor V Leiden, a G1691A nucleotide replacement results in an R506Q amino acid mutation.
APC resistance is the inability of protein C to cleave Factor Va and/or Factor VIIIa, which allows for longer duration of thrombin generation and may lead to a hypercoagulable state. This may be hereditary or acquired. [4] The best known and most common hereditary form is Factor V Leiden, which is responsible for more than 95% of cases. [5]
Thromboembolism is a well-described complication of IBD, with a clinical incidence of up to 6% and a three-fold higher risk of disease, [31] [32] and the Factor V Leiden mutation further increases the risk of venous thrombosis. [33] Recent studies describe the co-occurrence between coeliac disease, in which IBD is common in venous thrombosis ...
The exact prevalence of protein S deficiency in the population is unknown; it is found 1.3–5% of people with thrombosis. [14] The minor ("type 2") thrombophilias are much more common. Factor V Leiden is present in 5% of the population of Northern European descent, but much rarer in those of Asian or African extraction.
Factor V Leiden is responsible for 8% of cases. [2] Other less common inherited disorders leading to the condition include factor II mutation (3%), protein C deficiency (5%), protein S deficiency (4%), and antithrombin III deficiency(1%). [2] [14] Budd–Chiari syndrome may be the presenting sign of these hypercoagulable disorders.
A 2006 meta-analysis showed only a 1.3-fold increased risk for coronary disease. [6] Deficiencies in the anticoagulants Protein C and Protein S further increase the risk five- to tenfold. [2] Behind non-O blood type [7] and factor V Leiden, prothrombin G20210A is one of the most common genetic risk factors for venous thromboembolism. [4]
