| Summary: | The most important complications of Philadelphianegagive (non BCR-ABL) myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are vascular events. Our aim was to evaluate the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), platelet glycoproteins (GPs) (Ia/IIa, Ibα, IIb/IIIa and VI), von Willebrand factor (vWF), coagulation factor VII (FVII), β-fibrinogen, and the risk of thrombosis in patients with non BCR-ABL MPNs at the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences. Kaunas, Lithuania. Genotyping was done for 108 patients. The TT genotype of the GP Ia/IIa c.807C>T polymorphism was more frequently found in the group of MPN patients with arterial thrombosis compared to MPN patients who were thrombosis-free [26.5 vs. 11.5%, p = 0.049; odds ratio (OR) 2.68; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.01-7.38]. The CT genotype of the β-fibrinogen c.-148C>T polymorphism occurred more frequently in MPN patients with arterial, and total thrombosis compared to the wild or homozygous genotype (57.7 vs. 40.0 vs. 12.5%; p = 0.027), (64.7 vs. 44.4 vs. 25%; p = 0.032), respectively. The carrier state for the c.-323P10 variant of FVII SNP (summation of P10/10 and P0/10) was more frequent in MPN patients with thrombosis compared to the wild-type genotype carriers (71.4 vs. 43.4%; p = 0.049; OR 3.26; 95% CI 1.01-11.31). The coexistence of heterozygous β-fibrinogen c.-148C>T and FVII c.-323P0/10 SNP, increased the risk of arterial thrombosis (21.1 vs. 3.7%, p = 0.008; OR 6.93; 95% CI 1.38-34.80). The TT genotype of GP Ia/IIa c.807C>T, the CT genotype of β-fibrinogen c.-148C>T and FVII c.-323P0/10 SNP could be associated with risk of thrombosis in MPN patients.
