Background
Clotting factor II, or prothrombin, is a vitamin K–dependent proenzyme that functions in the blood coagulation cascade.
Factor II deficiency is a rare, inherited or acquired bleeding disorder. In 1947, Quick and colleagues were the first to
describe a deficiency of factor II[1]
; in 1969, Shapiro and colleagues were the first to report a structural prothrombin
abnormality.[2]
Inherited factor II deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder that can manifest as hypoprothrombinemia, a
decrease in the overall synthesis of prothrombin, or as dysprothrombinemia, the synthesis of dysfunctional
prothrombin.[3, 4] Homozygous individuals are generally asymptomatic and have functional prothrombin levels of
2-25%. However, symptomatic individuals may experience easy bruising, epistaxis, soft-tissue hemorrhage, excessive
postoperative bleeding, and/or menorrhagia.
In true hypoprothrombinemia, immunologic assays correlate well with functional assays in that both reveal low
prothrombin values. Heterozygous patients are generally asymptomatic and have prothrombin levels of 50% or greater
on both immunologic and functional assays.
In dysprothrombinemia, only the functional assay for prothrombin returns significantly reduced values, whereas the
immunologic assay reveals normal values. Acquired factor II deficiency can be caused by severe liver disease,
vitamin K deficiency, anticoagulant drugs (eg, warfarin), or the presence of an antibody directed against the protein.[5]
The gene encoding prothrombin is primarily expressed in the liver[6] and is located on chromosome 11 in the region of
the centromere.[7] It is composed of 14 exons and contains 24 kilobases of DNA.[7] The gene encodes a signal
region, a propeptide region, a glutamic acid domain, 2 kringle regions, and a catalytic domain.[7]
The enzyme gamma-
glutamyl carboxylase, in the presence of vitamin K, converts the N- terminal glutamic acid residues to gamma-
carboxyglutamic acid residues. These gamma-carboxyglutamic acid residues are necessary for the binding of
prothrombin to phospholipids on platelet membranes.
Because measurable prothrombin is present in all individuals with hypoprothrombinemia or dysprothrombinemia,
authorities believe that the complete absence of prothrombin is incompatible with postnatal life. Studies of transgenic
mice with a complete deficiency of prothrombin reveal embryonic lethality and neonatal death.[8, 9]
Aside from the prothrombin deficiencies, another disorder of prothrombin is the prothrombin 20210a mutation. First
reported in 1996 as a familial cause of venous thromboembolism, the prothrombin 20210a mutation results in
increased levels of plasma prothrombin and a concurrent increased risk for the development of thrombosis.[10]
Although the exact mechanism of this disorder has not been elucidated, the prothrombin 20210a mutation involves the
substitution of an adenine for a guanine at position 20210 within the 3' untranslated region of the prothrombin gene.[11]

This mutation alters the polyadenylation site of the gene and results in increased mRNA synthesis, with a subsequent
increase in protein expression.[12]
Prothrombin 20210a has an estimated prevalence of 2% in whites.[13, 14] The mutation is more prevalent in those of
southern European descent than in those of northern European descent, and it is rarely seen in Asians or Africans.[13]
A study of patients in Turkey revealed the presence of the prothrombin 20210a mutation in 0.7% of subjects.[15]
Individuals carrying the prothrombin 20210a mutation have a 2- to 3-fold increased risk for developing thrombosis.[10,
16] One case-control study found evidence of an increased risk of developing an ischemic cerebrovascular event in
men aged younger than 60 years with the prothrombin 20210a mutation.[17] A study of cancer patients in the
Netherlands found that the presence of the prothrombin 20210a mutation in these patients may increase the risk of
venous thrombosis to a level greater than that attributable to the malignancy alone.[18]
The prothrombin 20210a mutation can be identified without DNA analysis and should be considered in any patient
experiencing a thrombotic event without other risk factors. Treatment with oral anticoagulants is useful in preventing
recurrence in patients with the mutation who have already experienced a thrombotic event. Additionally, women who
are known to carry the mutation may want to avoid oral contraceptives because of the additional risk of thrombosis.
Prothrombin plays a role in a role in chronic urticaria and various vascular disorders.[19, 20] Livedo vasculopathy is
associated with immunoglobulin (Ig)M antiphosphatidylserine-prothrombin complex antibody.[21] The presence of
antiphosphatidylserine-prothrombin complex antibodies and histopathological necrotizing vasculitis in the upper-
to-middle dermis indicates cutaneous leukocytoclastic angiitis rather than cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa.[20]
Chronic urticaria is an autoimmune disease found in one half of cases with circulating histamine-releasing
autoantibodies, mainly directed against the high affinity IgE-receptor Fc ε RI on mast cells and basophils or against
IgE. Chronic urticaria may be associated with the activation of coagulation that is due to the involvement of eosinophils
and a tissue factor pathway, with generation of thrombin potentially contributing to an increased vascular permeability.
This may provide the rationale for clinical trials on the use of anticoagulant drugs as adjuvant treatment in patients with
chronic urticaria.
Pathophysiology
In the blood coagulation cascade, prothrombin is cleaved by factor Xa to form thrombin, an active serine protease.[22]
This proteolytic reaction occurs on the phospholipid surfaces of platelets and requires calcium. Thrombin is
responsible for inducing platelet aggregation and activating several other mediators in the coagulation cascade. It
converts fibrinogen to fibrin, which then polymerizes to form a clot around platelet aggregates. Thrombin also converts
factor XIII to factor XIIIa, an enzyme that cross-links and stabilizes fibrin polymers. The prothrombotic effects of
thrombin are ultimately suppressed by the binding of thrombin to thrombomodulin on endothelial cell surfaces to form
a complex that activates protein C. Protein C then degrades factors Va and VIIIa to inhibit the coagulation cascade.
Thrombin also has cytokine and growth-factor functions, inducing mitosis and chemotaxis in cell lines, including
smooth muscle, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and mononuclear phagocytes.[23] Decreased levels or a dysfunctional
structure of factor II can lead to absent or defective clot formation and dysfunctional platelet aggregation. Thus,
thrombin functions not only in the clotting cascade, but also as a cytokine and growth factor capable of inducing mitosis
and chemotaxis in several different cell lines.
Several specific missense mutations of the prothrombin gene have been documented.[24, 25, 26, 27] These single amino
acid substitutions can cause hypoprothrombinemia and/or dysprothrombinemia.
A family in San Antonio, Texas, was found to have normal antigenic levels of prothrombin but half the normal levels of
prothrombin activity.[25] A single guanine-to-adenine mutation was found, which resulted in the substitution of histidine
for arginine at residue 320. The arginine 320–to–isoleucine 321 bond is 1 of 2 sites in prothrombin cleaved by factor
Xa to form thrombin. Substitution of histidine for arginine at this site resulted in the blockage of factor Xa cleavage,
forming a dysfunctional molecule and resulting in dysprothrombinemia.[25]
Two members of a family from Venezuela were found to have undetectable antigen levels and prothrombin activity
levels at 4% of normal.[28] A mutation was identified that had resulted in the substitution of cystine for tyrosine at
residue 44. Substitution of a cystine at residue 44, located in the aromatic stack region of the protein, would result in an
abnormal folding of the protein and could be the cause for the observed lack of secretion of prothrombin.[28]

Other mutations, affecting various regions of the prothrombin gene, have also been described. Prothrombin Puerto
Rico I involves an arginine to glycine substitution at position 457.[29, 30]
Prothrombin Saint-Denis involves an aspartic
acid to glutamine substitution at position 552.[31]
Acquired factor II deficiency has several possible etiologies. Because prothrombin is synthesized almost exclusively
in the liver, severe liver disease can have a dramatic impact on prothrombin levels. Vitamin K deficiency can also result
in decreased prothrombin levels. Vitamin K is produced in the gut by enteric flora, and levels can be affected by
intestinal malabsorption, bile duct obstruction, or antibiotic administration.[32]
Vitamin K deficiency can be iatrogenically induced by the administration of propylthiouracil or vitamin K antagonists
such as warfarin. Vitamin K deficiency can also be seen in neonates. Finally, acquired factor II deficiency can
sometimes be observed in patients with lupus anticoagulant.[33, 34]
These patients can develop specific prothrombin
autoantibodies that form a complex with prothrombin and cause excessive clearance of prothrombin from the body.[35,
36] This condition, sometimes referred to as "lupus anticoagulant hypoprothrombinemia syndrome," is most often seen
with systemic lupus erythematosus.[34]
Epidemiology
Frequency
United States
Both congenital and acquired factor II deficiencies are rare.
International
Only approximately 30 cases of congenital factor II deficiency have been documented worldwide.[37]
Mortality/Morbidity
Congenital factor II deficiency is a lifelong bleeding disorder. Death can result because of massive hemorrhage from
relatively minor accidents or trauma. Hemorrhage can also occur as a result of surgery if precautions are not taken.
Intracranial bleeding is another serious sequela of this disorder. Rarely, hemarthroses can occur.[3]
Race
Factor II deficiency has no known racial or ethnic predilection.
Sex
Males and females are affected equally in cases of factor II deficiency.
Age
Patients with severe congenital factor II deficiency present early in life, whereas those with less severe forms can
present at any age. Acquired forms can be observed in all age groups.
