Serum microRNAs as new biomarkers for detecting subclinical hemolysis in the nonacute phase of G6PD deficiency

Abstract excerpt

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is one of the most common enzymopathies worldwide. Patients with G6PD deficiency are usually asymptomatic throughout their life but can develop acute hemolysis after exposure to free radicals or certain medications. Several studies have shown that serum miRNAs can be used as prognostic biomarkers in various types of hemolytic anemias. However, the impact of G6PD...
