Factor V is an important blood coagulation factor, the procoagulatory activity of which is inhibited by activated protein C. The factor V Leiden mutation is due to a single base-pair change (G1691A), which alters the initial cleavage site for activated protein C. The impaired degradation of factor V by activated protein C yields a hypercoagulable state that confers a lifelong increased risk of thrombosis in heterozygous and homozygous individuals.

More recently, laboratory investigations have been expanded to include activated protein C (APC) resistance, attributable or not to the presence of the factor V Leiden mutation; hyperprothrombinemia attributable to the presence of the prothrombin gene mutation G20210A; and hyperhomocysteinemia attributable to impairment of the relevant metabolic pathway because of enzymatic and/or vitamin deficiencies.

High factor VIII plasma levels have been shown to represent a common increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE) and may cause an activated protein C (APC) resistance in the absence of the factor V Leiden mutation, but there are no studies specifically aimed to establish if high factor VIII and von Willebrand factor (vWF) concentrations may influence the APC sensitivity ratio (APC-SR) and increase the risk for VTE in the presence of the factor V Leiden mutation.

The well-recognized inherited thrombophilic states include resistance to activated protein C (APC) (Factor V Leiden) and deficiencies of plasma antithrombin, protein C, and protein S. These entities are aberrations in the natural anticoagulant systems that exist in plasma and at the endothelial cell level.

The molecular basis of APC resistance is a single-point mutation (arginine506-glutamine) in the gene that encodes for coagulation factor V. This mutation results in a factor V molecule (factor V(Leiden)) that is less effectively downregulated by APC than is normal factor V. The gold standard for the detection of this defect is DNA analysis.
