How does protein S deficiency affect infants?
In cases of protein S deficiency, infants may develop purpura fulminans - an incredibly dangerous blood clotting disorder. Characterised by the formation of clots throughout their small vessels, these can prevent normal flow and cause fatal tissue damage (necrosis).
Can Protein S deficiency be inherited?
It can be an inherited condition, in which the dominant genetic expression makes one altered copy of PROS1 gene per cell sufficient to cause mild protein S deficiency. If two altered copies are present within individual cells, then it results in a severe form of this disorder.
What diseases are caused by Protein S deficiency?
Many blood clot-related diseases are caused by Protein S deficiency and they include: Thrombophilia (excessive blood clot formation), venous thromboembolism (deep vein thrombosis), and pulmonary embolism.

Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the Protein S Test in Jamnagar to detect blood clotting- related disorders.
Overview of Protein S Test
The Protein S test is conducted to identify the reason for unknown clot formation in the blood. Protein S is a type of protein that is mainly formed in the liver and plays an important role in the blood coagulation process, along with protein C. It takes part in the body’s vitamin K dependent anti-coagulation network and its deficiency causes abnormal blood clots inside the body.
Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers an accurate and reliable Protein S Test in Jamnagar.
Why and When is the Protein S Test Done?
A Protein S test is done to diagnose unknown blood clot formation inside the body. A rare disorder, Protein S deficiency can be either hereditary or acquired. Hereditary reasons include mutation in a gene that makes Protein S, to cause venous thromboembolism (VTE). Acquired reasons include nephrotic syndrome, hepatic disease, etc.
The doctor can recommend a Protein S test if a person shows these symptoms:
-
Abnormal blood clot formation, usually at age <50 years
-
Formation of several blood clots at different places inside the body
-
Blood clot formation in internal organs such as the brain, liver, kidney
The Protein S test is also recommended if a person has health issues that affect the Protein S level. The health issues include:
- Chronic infections

Values in healthy persons are 60% to 150% inhibition
