Abstract excerpt

Hb F levels in beta-thalassemia heterozygotes are usually less than 2%, but amongst 1,059 patients studied, 73 (7%) had Hb F levels above 2.5% (2.6-14.0%). To investigate factors that may influence the increase of Hb F levels in these heterozygotes, we characterized the beta-thalassemia mutations and their chromosomal background, gamma-globin gene promoter variations, and alpha-globin genotypes. All 73...
