For centuries, hemophilia was a dangerous genetic disorder with no treatment. Children with hemophilia often didn't make it to adulthood, since a bump or fall could cause massive internal bleeding.

This spontaneous mutation pattern explains why hemophilia A can appear unexpectedly in families with no known bleeding disorders. Genetic testing now allows precise identification of the specific ...

Hemophilia C is an autosomal inherited form of the disease. It affects biological males and females equally because the genetic defect that causes this type of hemophilia isn’t related to sex ...

On the other hand, some genetic mutations, such as those linked to hemophilia, will always manifest the disorder. Furthermore, the environment can have an effect on the degree to which a gene ...

Researchers from the Centenary Institute have uncovered a reason why some people with hemophilia A develop resistance to ...

Genentech’s short film draws on the experiences of multiple families caring for children with hemophilia A, seeking to ...

“For the rare genetic blood-clotting disease hemophilia—typically present at birth—the excessive bleeding endured by children with this disease can lead to progressive disability with pain ...

A new portable device developed by Rutgers University researchers can detect genetic mutations linked to hereditary ...

Of the hundreds of genetic diseases linked to the X chromosome, Duchenne is among the more common, along with certain forms of hemophilia. Other so-called X-linked disorders include Fabry disease ...

China recently approved its first gene therapy for the rare genetic disorder hemophilia B, drawing renewed attention to this often-overlooked condition. Hemophilia is a rare but serious inherited ...
