Identificación de nuevos elementos implicados en la regulación de antitrombina= Identification of new elements involved in antithrombin regulation.

de la Morena Barrio, Mª Eugenia 14 March 2013 (has links)
Deficiency of antithrombin caused by mutations affecting the gene encoding this key anticoagulant (SERPINC1) significantly increases the risk of thrombosis. We aim to identify new mechanisms involved in antithrombin deficiency. Using molecular, cellular and biochemical methods, we studied 29 patients with antithrombin deficiency without SERPINC1 mutation, a family study, three case-control studies including 2,980 patients and 3,996 controls, and two patients with congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). We identified the first mutation affecting the SERPINC1 promoter causing antithrombin deficiency. We confirmed the low genetic variability of SERPINC1 and its minor role on the heritability of antithrombin. Genome wide association studies and silencing experiments identified the first modulating gene of antithrombin, LARGE. We diagnosed a patient with CDG based on his antithrombin deficiency. Finally, we described a new disorder with identical biochemical features than CDGs, but only thrombosis, which is caused by a single mutation in PMM2 and concomitant alcohol consumption. / La deficiencia de antitrombina causada por mutaciones en el gen SERPINC1 incrementa el riesgo trombótico. Nuestro objetivo fue identificar nuevos mecanismos implicados en la deficiencia de este anticoagulante. Empleando metodología molecular, celular y bioquímica estudiamos 29 pacientes con deficiencia de antitrombina sin mutaciones en SERPINC1, un estudio familiar, tres estudios caso-control (2,980 pacientes/3,996 controles) y dos pacientes con trastornos congénitos de glicosilación (CDG). Identificamos la primera mutación en el promotor de SERPINC1 que causa deficiencia de antitrombina. Confirmamos la baja variabilidad genética en SERPINC1 y su escasa influencia en la heredabilidad de antitrombina. Un GWAS y experimentos de silenciamiento mostraron que LARGE es el primer gen modulador de antitrombina. Diagnosticamos un CDG por la deficiencia de antitrombina de un paciente con trombosis recurrente y descubrimos nuevo desorden con patrón bioquímico similar al CDG pero solo con trombosis que es causado por una sola mutación en PMM2 y consumo de alcohol.
