R189W and K193del of protein C (PC) were hotspot mutations in Chinese population with venous thromboembolism (VTE), but almost two-thirds of patients with above mutations coexisting with other genetically or aquiredly prothrombotic risk factors. The aim of this study is to clarify the independent contributions of R189W or K193del to VTE risk. 490 unrelated patients with a personal history of VTE and 410 healthy participants were enrolled in this study. Data of their demographics, family history, genetic and acquired thrombosis risk factors were collected and statistically analyzed. PC R189W and K193del were identified in 3/410 (0.7%) and 7/410 (1.7%) healthy controls, and in 27/490 (5.5%) and 43/490 (8.8%) patients with VTE, respectively. Notably, about 70% of these mutant carriers combined with other genetic or acquired thrombophilic factors. After adjustment for age, gender, other inherited and acquired risk factors, we demonstrated that R189W and K193del were associated with 5.781-fold and 4.365-fold increased risk of VTE, respectively, which were significantly lower than the prothrombotic risk of anticoagulant deficiencies induced from rare mutations. Independent R189W or K193del mutation was not associated with earlier first-onset age as well as higher recurrent rate of VTE. However, combination of other genetic or acquired thrombophilic factors had supra-additive effects on those consequences. The more additional risk factors the patients had, the younger first-onset ages and higher risk of recurrence would be. As the most frequent mutations for PC deficiency in Chinese population, both R189W and K193del mutations had limited independent contributions to VTE development compared with other rare mutations in PROC gene, but may act in concert with other genetic defects or acquired thrombotic risk factors to produce the final severe phenotype.
