Summaries for Hemophilia B

About this section
OMIM : 58 Hemophilia B due to factor IX deficiency is phenotypically indistinguishable from hemophilia A (306700), which results from deficiency of coagulation factor VIII (F8; 300841). The classic laboratory findings in hemophilia B include a prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and a normal prothrombin time (PT) (Lefkowitz et al., 1993). Early studies made a distinction between cross-reactive-material (CRM)-negative and CRM-positive hemophilia B mutants. This classification referred to detection of the F9 antigen in plasma, even in the presence of decreased F9 activity. Detection of the antigen indicated the presence of a dysfunctional F9 protein. Roberts et al. (1968) found that about 90% of patients with hemophilia B were CRM-negative, whereas about 10% were CRM-positive. However, Bertina and Veltkamp (1978) found that a rather large proportion of the hemophilia B patients could be characterized as hemophilia B CRM+. They identified 14 cases of hemophilia B CRM+ from 11 families among a group of 33 patients. After immunologic and activity comparisons, they found at least 7 different factor IX variants. Bertina and Veltkamp (1978) noted the high heterogeneity within this group. In an editorial on variants of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors, Bertina et al. (1979) stated that 9 defective variants of factor II, 5 variants of factor X, and many variants (about 180 pedigrees) of factor IX had been identified. At least one variant of factor VII (Padua) was also known. (306900)

MalaCards based summary : Hemophilia B, also known as factor ix deficiency, is related to hemophilia and factor viii deficiency. An important gene associated with Hemophilia B is F9 (Coagulation Factor IX), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Response to elevated platelet cytosolic Ca2+ and Collagen chain trimerization. The drugs Thrombin and Triamcinolone have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include liver, brain and testes, and related phenotypes are hematuria and intracranial hemorrhage

Disease Ontology : 12 An inherited blood coagulation disease that has material basis in Factor IX deficiency, which makes coagulation much more prolonged. The disease is inherited as an X-linked recessive trait.

NIH Rare Diseases : 54 Hemophilia B is a bleeding disorder that slows the blood clotting process. People with this disorder experience prolonged bleeding or oozing following an injury or surgery. In severe cases of hemophilia, heavy bleeding occurs after minor injury or even in the absence of injury. Serious complications can result from bleeding into the joints, muscles, brain, or other internal organs. Milder forms may not become apparent until abnormal bleeding occurs following surgery or a serious injury. People with an unusual form of hemophilia B, known as hemophilia B Leyden, experience episodes of excessive bleeding in childhood but have few bleeding problems after puberty. Hemophilia B is inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern and is caused by mutations in the F9 gene.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : 76 Hemophilia B: An X-linked blood coagulation disorder characterized by a permanent tendency to hemorrhage, due to factor IX deficiency. It is phenotypically similar to hemophilia A, but patients present with fewer symptoms. Many patients are asymptomatic until the hemostatic system is stressed by surgery or trauma.
