| Protein S deficiency is an autosomal dominant thrombophilia, which leads to an increased risk of thromboembolic events. Protein S is a vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein and plays a role in anticoagulation. It is mainly a cofactor to the activated protein C (APC), which inactivates coagulation factors Va and VIIa and thereby controlling the coagulation cascade.

| | |
| ==Historical Perspective==
| |
| *Protein S was first discovered and purified in Seattle, Washington in 1979, and it was arbitrarily named protein S after the city it was discovered in.
| |
| *The function of this protein was still unknown; however, it was hypothesized that protein S plays a role in activating protein C.
| |
| *Protein S deficiency was first discovered in 1984 when two related individuals with recurrent thromboembolic events and normal coagulation tests were studied. At the time, protein C deficiency was usually associated with recurrent familial thrombosis. These individuals were found to have diminished anticoagulation activity with normal coagulation tests (including a normal protein C level), and when purified human protein S was added to their plasma, effective anticoagulation was restored. <ref name="pmid6239877">{{cite journal| author=Comp PC, Nixon RR, Cooper MR, Esmon CT| title=Familial protein S deficiency is associated with recurrent thrombosis. | journal=J Clin Invest | year= 1984 | volume= 74 | issue= 6 | pages= 2082-8 | pmid=6239877 | doi=10.1172/JCI111632 | pmc=425398 | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=6239877 }} </ref>

| ==Classification==
| |
| Protein S deficiency can be subdivided into three types depending on whether the abnormality affects total protein S level, free protein S level, and/or protein S function:
| |
| | |
| *'''Type I:''' Reduced total protein S, free protein S, and protein S function
| |
| It is the classic form of hereditary protein S deficiency. Total protein S levels drop to approximately 50% of normal values while free protein S levels collapse to almost 15% of the normal. On a genetic level, type I deficiency usually results from missense or nonsense mutations. On few occasions, microinsertions, microdeletions, and splice site mutations have occurred with this type. <ref name="pmid6238642">{{cite journal| author=Schwarz HP, Fischer M, Hopmeier P, Batard MA, Griffin JH| title=Plasma protein S deficiency in familial thrombotic disease. | journal=Blood | year= 1984 | volume= 64 | issue= 6 | pages= 1297-300 | pmid=6238642 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=6238642 }} </ref>
| |
| | |
| *'''Type II:''' Normal total and free protein S, reduced protein S function
| |
| This form results from a qualitative defect and is very rare. The genetics behind this type isn't certain; however, some reports have linked it to missense mutations affecting the protein S's ability to bind to the activated protein C. <ref name="pmid8943854">{{cite journal| author=Simmonds RE, Ireland H, Kunz G, Lane DA| title=Identification of 19 protein S gene mutations in patients with phenotypic protein S deficiency and thrombosis.

| |
| | |
| *'''Type III:''' Normal total protein S, reduced free protein S and protein S function
| |
| This is a quantitative defect.

| ==Pathophysiology==
| |
|
| |
| *Protein S is a natural anticoagulant that works with other proteins to regulate coagulation in the body. After it gets produced by the hepatocytes, endothelial cells, and megakaryocytes, protein S undergoes activation via vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylation. <ref name="pmid21239244">{{cite journal| author=Esmon CT| title=Protein S and protein C Biochemistry, physiology, and clinical manifestation of deficiencies. | journal=Trends Cardiovasc Med | year= 1992 | volume= 2 | issue= 6 | pages= 214-9 | pmid=21239244 | doi=10.1016/1050-1738(92)90027-P | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=21239244 }} </ref>
| |
| *It serves as a cofactor for activated protein C, which inactivates procoagulant factors Va and VIIIa, reducing thrombin generation. Protein S also serves as a cofactor for activated protein C in enhancing fibrinolysis and can directly inhibit prothrombin activation via interactions with other coagulation factors
| |
| | |
| *Mature gamma-carboxylated protein S circulates in two states: free, and bound to the complement component C4b-binding protein (C4b-BP). The free form comprises 30 to 40 percent of total protein S and is the only form of protein S that has cofactor activity for activated protein C

| ==Epidemiology and Demographics==
| |
| | |
| *The prevalence of protein S deficiency is approximately 90 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. <ref name="pmid24014240">{{cite journal| author=Pintao MC, Ribeiro DD, Bezemer ID, Garcia AA, de Visser MC, Doggen CJ et al.| title=Protein S levels and the risk of venous thrombosis: results from the MEGA case-control study. | journal=Blood | year= 2013 | volume= 122 | issue= 18 | pages= 3210-9 | pmid=24014240 | doi=10.1182/blood-2013-04-499335 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=24014240 }} </ref>

| ===Age===
| |
| | |
| *The age of onset of thromboembolic events varies by heterozygous vs homozygous.
| |
| **The thromboembolic events seen in heterozygous protein S deficiency usually occurs in individuals younger that 40-50 years of age.
| |
| **The homozygous patients have neonatal purpura fulminans at birth.
| |
| | |
| ===Gender===
| |
| | |
| *There is no difference in the prevalence of the disease between men and women.
| |
|
| |
| ===Race===
| |
| | |
| *Current data shows that protein S deficiency affects Asians 5 to 10 times more than caucasians.
