The importance of erythroid expansion in determining the extent of apoptosis in erythroid precursors in patients with β-thalassemia major
2000-11-15
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Beta-thalassemia major is characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis leading to severe anemia and extensive erythroid expansion. The ineffective erythropoiesis is in part due to accelerated apoptosis of the thalassemic erythroid precursors; however, the extent of apoptosis is surprisingly variable. To understand this variability as well as the fact that some patients undergoing allogeneic marrow transpla...
