Inhibitory Anti-Factor V Antibodies Bind to the Factor V C2 Domain and Are Associated With Hemorrhagic Manifestations

From the Departments of Medicine and Pathology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC; the First Department of Internal Medicine, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 812, Japan; Twin Falls Clinic and Hospital, Twin Falls, ID; the Department of Laboratory Medicine, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston; the Department of Internal Medicine, Cook County Hospital, Chicago, IL; and the Laboratoire de biologie, Cannes, France.

Factor V inhibitors may develop as spontaneous autoantibodies, as alloantibodies after exposure to bovine thrombin preparations, or in factor V-deficient patients after plasma therapy. Clinical manifestations range from asymptomatic laboratory abnormalities to life-threatening hemorrhage. We have characterized the anti-factor V antibodies from 12 patients diagnosed with factor V inhibitors. In 8 patients, hemorrhagic complications (5 autoantibodies and 3 bovine thrombin-induced alloantibodies) developed, and 4 were asymptomatic (2 autoantibodies and 2 alloantibodies). The IgG fractions from all 12 patients immunoprecipitated the factor Va light chain, but only the 8 IgG fractions associated with hemorrhage inhibited factor V activity in a prothrombinase assay. Nine IgG fractions, including the 8 patients with hemorrhage, immunoprecipitated the isolated second C-type domain (C2). The 8 IgG fractions from the symptomatic patients also immunoprecipitated recombinant chimeras containing only the N-terminal third of the factor V C2 domain, and isolated recombinant C2 domain abrogated the inhibitory effect of the antibodies. Five of the inhibitory IgG fractions blocked binding of factor V to phosphatidylserine. These results suggest that inhibitory anti-factor V antibodies are associated with hemorrhagic manifestations and frequently bind to a common region within the C2 domain, whether originating spontaneously or after exposure to bovine thrombin.
