Abstract
Hereditary thrombocytopenias can be subclassified based on mode of inheritance and platelet size. Here we report a family with autosomal dominant (AD) thrombocytopenia with normal platelet size. Linkage analysis and whole exome sequencing identified the R1026W substitution in ITGA2B as the causative defect. The same mutation has been previously reported in 7 Japanese families/patients with AD thrombocytopenia, but all of these patients had macrothrombocytopenia. This is the first report of a family with AD thrombocytopenia with normal platelet size resulting from mutation in ITGA2B. ITGA2B mutations should therefore be included in the differential diagnosis of this latter disorder.Entities:
