Assessing oxidative stress in foetuses with β-globin gene mutations.

Abstract excerpt

Background & objectives Haemoglobinopathies, particularly thalassemia and sickle cell disease, are of major public health concern and pose a significant health burden in India particularly in the State of Odisha. The molecular complexity of β-thalassemia involves over 350 mutations, resulting in reduced beta-globin synthesis, excess iron, and oxidative stress. Methods Chorionic villi samples from β-thalassemia...
