Elevated p21 (CDKN1a) mediates β-thalassemia erythroid apoptosis but its loss does not improve β-thalassemic erythropoiesis
2022-03-04
Abstract excerpt
β-thalassemias are common hemoglobinopathies due to mutations in the β-globin gene that lead to hemolytic anemias. Premature death of β-thalassemic erythroid precursors results in ineffective erythroid maturation, increased production of erythropoietin (Epo), expansion of erythroid progenitor compartment, extramedullary erythropoiesis and splenomegaly. However, the molecular mechanism of erythroid apoptosis in β-t...
