In this short review, we presented and discussed studies on the expression of globin genes in β-thalassemia, focusing on the impact of α-globin gene expression and α-globin modifiers on the phenotype and clinical severity of β-thalassemia.

Molecular analysis of α-thalassemia in Nepal: correlation with malaria endemicity
Thalassemia is a prevalent hereditary disorder characterized by impaired synthesis of globin chains. It has been suggested that the high frequency of thalassemia might reflect heterozygote advantage due to reduced susceptibility to malaria.
