Co-administration of FVIII with IVIG reduces immune response to FVIII in hemophilia A mice [PDF]
AbstractHemophilia A is an X-linked recessive congenital bleeding disorder. Exogenous infusion of FVIII is the treatment of choice, and the development of immunoglobulins against FVIII (inhibitors) remains the major challenge in clinical management of the disease.

SummaryA mild haemophilia A patient (LE) with an Arg2150His mutation in the C1 domain of the factor VIII (FVIII) light chain was shown to have anti-FVIII antibodies inhibiting wild type but not self FVIII. Polyclonal anti-FVIII antibodies of this patient were purified by affinity adsorption using recombinant FVIII (rFVIII) and/or plasma-derived FVIII ...

In-Silico Characterization of von Willebrand Factor Bound to FVIII
Factor VIII belongs to the coagulation cascade and is expressed as a long pre-protein (mature form, 2351 amino acids long). FVIII is deficient or defective in hemophilic A patients, who need to be treated with hemoderivatives or recombinant FVIII ...

FVIII Immunity : early events and tolerance mechanisms to FVIII [PDF]
Among the complications of current treatments for hemophilia A, the development of anti-FVIII antibodies including “FVIII inhibitors” remains the major clinical problem in treating hemophiliacs. Factor VIII inhibitors work through neutralizing the coagulation cofactor activity of the infused FVIII and preventing the restoration of normal hemostasis ...

Combined FV and FVIII deficiency
Summary. Inherited deficiencies of plasma proteins involved in blood coagulation generally lead to lifelong bleeding disorders. The severity of these disorders is generally inversely proportional to the degree of factor deficiency. Among all the autosomal recessive rare bleeding disorders, which include afibrinogenaemia, factor (F) II, FV, FV + VIII ...

FVIII hydrolysis mediated by anti-FVIII autoantibodies in acquired hemophilia
Acquired hemophilia is a rare hemorrhagic disorder caused by the spontaneous appearance of inhibitory autoantibodies directed against endogenous coagulation factor VIII (FVIII). Inhibitory Abs also arise in patients with congenital hemophilia A as alloantibodies directed to therapeutic FVIII.

To investigate if FVIII-Fc Fusion protein (FcFVIII) may modulate inflammation and immune stimulation in hemophilic synovium via the Fc-portion of immunoglobulin used for half-life extension we performed gene expression profiling in FVIII-deficient mice.

Patient anti-FVIII drug antibodies bind preferentially to a subset of FVIII covalent states
: Hemophilia A is a chronic life-threatening condition caused by the deficiency or dysfunction of plasma coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) and commonly managed by prophylaxis with regular infusion of FVIII protein.
