Test Details:
Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) is an enzyme that is involved in the metabolism of folate, a B vitamin. Mutations in the MTHFR gene can lead to reduced activity of the enzyme, which can result in elevated levels of homocysteine in the blood. Elevated homocysteine levels have been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and other health conditions.
Factor V (F5) is a protein that plays a role in blood clotting. Mutations in the F5 gene can lead to an increased risk of developing abnormal blood clots, a condition known as venous thromboembolism. The most common mutation associated with Factor V is called Factor V Leiden, which increases the risk of blood clots in veins.
Factor II (F2) is another protein involved in blood clotting. Mutations in the F2 gene can lead to an increased risk of developing abnormal blood clots, similar to Factor V mutations. The most common mutation associated with Factor II is called the prothrombin G20210A mutation, which increases the risk of blood clots in veins.
Testing for mutations in the MTHFR, F5, and F2 genes can be done to identify individuals who may be at increased risk for certain health conditions, such as cardiovascular disease or venous thromboembolism. This information can be used to guide treatment decisions and preventive measures.
