Regulatory Mutation Study in Cases with Unsolved Hypochromic Microcytic Anemia and α-Major Regulatory Element Haplotype Analysis in Iran.

Abstract excerpt

α-Thalassemia (α-thal) is an inherited blood disorder with different clinical manifestations. Although genetic causes of anemia are identified routinely in the majority of α-thal cases, a pathogenic variant in a few cases remains undiagnosed. In this study, some reported regulatory mutations have been investigated in five unsolved α-thal carriers. α-Major regulatory element (α-MRE) haplotype analysis has also...
