Development of a Hemoglobin Beta Chain Gene Knockout Syrian Hamster Model for β-Thalassemia and Oxidative Stress

2025-05-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> /Objectives: Notable similarities in lipid metabolism exist between human and golden Syrian hamster relative to most other rodents. A model for β-thalassemia in hamster was sought via knocking out the hemoglobin β-chain (HBB) gene. There are two HBB genes, as well as seven β-like alleles, predicted in the hamster genome, yet none have been functionally characterized. <h4>Methods:</h4> To deve...
