About Hereditary angioedema with normal C1Inh not related to F12 or PLG variant

What is Hereditary angioedema with normal C1Inh not related to F12 or PLG variant?

Hereditary angioedema with normal C1Inh not related to F12 or PLG variant is a rare form of hereditary angioedema (HAE) that is caused by a mutation in the gene that codes for C1 inhibitor (C1Inh). This mutation results in a deficiency of C1Inh, which is responsible for controlling the activity of certain proteins in the body that are involved in inflammation and blood clotting. Patients with this form of HAE typically experience recurrent episodes of swelling in the face, extremities, and airway, which can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.

What are the symptoms of Hereditary angioedema with normal C1Inh not related to F12 or PLG variant?

- Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, and throat
- Swelling of the hands, feet, and other parts of the body
- Abdominal pain
- Nausea and vomiting

What are the causes of Hereditary angioedema with normal C1Inh not related to F12 or PLG variant?

1. Mutations in the SERPING1 gene, which encodes C1-inhibitor (C1-INH).

2. Mutations in the F12 gene, which encodes coagulation factor XII.

3. Mutations in the PLG gene, which encodes plasminogen.

4. Mutations in the HAE2 gene, which encodes a protein involved in the regulation of the complement system.

5. Mutations in the F13A1 gene, which encodes coagulation factor XIII A-subunit.

6. Mutations in the F13B gene, which encodes coagulation factor XIII B-subunit.

7. Mutations in the F11 gene, which encodes coagulation factor XI.
