Prime editing in neuropsychiatric disorders: From mutation‐specific target selection to clinical translation

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Abstract Prime editing, a novel clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‐based technology, fuses a reverse transcriptase (RT) to an engineered CRISPR‐associated protein 9 (Cas9) and uses a prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA)‐encoded template.

Heterozygous Beta‐Thalassaemia in Pregnancy: Two Rare Causes of Severe Fetal Anemia Requiring Intrauterine Blood Transfusions

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim In this article, we present two cases of severe fetal hemolytic anemia based on a beta‐thalassaemia trait inherited from a single parent. Results These cases, presented at 20 and 28 weeks' gestation, necessitated intra‐uterine blood transfusions.

Hepcidin is suppressed by erythropoiesis in hemoglobin E β-thalassemia and β-thalassemia trait.

open access: yes, 2015
HbE β-thalassemia is the most common severe thalassemia syndrome across Asia, and millions are carriers. Clinical heterogeneity in HbE β-thalassemia is incompletely explained by genotype, and the interaction of phenotypic variation with hepcidin is ...

Ineffective Erythropoiesis in β-Thalassemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In humans, β-thalassemia dyserythropoiesis is characterized by expansion of early erythroid precursors and erythroid progenitors and then ineffective erythropoiesis.

Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

The molecular basis of beta-thalassemia intermedia in southern China: genotypic heterogeneity and phenotypic diversity

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2010
Background The clinical syndrome of thalassemia intermedia (TI) results from the β-globin genotypes in combination with factors to produce fetal haemoglobin (HbF) and/or co-inheritance of α-thalassemia.

In Utero HSC Transplantation for Sickle Cell Disease: A Potential Therapeutic Approach That Overcomes Complications of Current Therapies

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide but has limited treatment options, most of which carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment for SCD is allogeneic or gene‐modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation (Tx).

Clinical Insights: Prevalence of β-Thalassemia Mutations (IVSI-5, FSC8/9, and CD41/42) in the Swat District

open access: yesJournal of Bio-X Research
Background: Thalassemia is a prevalent condition characterized by decreased production or absence of hemoglobin globin chains. There are 2 types of thalassemia, alpha thalassemia and beta thalassemia (β-thalassemia), classified according to defects in ...

Non‐Invasive Prenatal Diagnosis of Haemoglobinopathies: From Concept to Clinical Reality

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Haemoglobinopathies are the most prevalent monogenic disorders worldwide, contributing significantly to childhood morbidity and mortality. Preventive strategies, including carrier screening and prenatal diagnosis, have successfully reduced disease incidence in regions with established programmes.
