Homozygotes show occasional fibrin deposits in non-healing ulcerations and reduced neointima formation after arterial injury. They are susceptible to thrombosis after traumatic or inflammatory challenge and appear to be immunologically hyporesponsive displaying characteristics of functional anergy.
