β-Thalassemia

open access: yesGenetics in Medicine, 2017
β-Thalassemia is caused by reduced (β +) or absent (β 0) synthesis of the β-globin chains of hemoglobin. Three clinical and hematological conditions of increasing severity are recognized: the β-thalassemia carrier state, thalassemia intermedia, and ...

Global distribution of β-thalassemia mutations: An Update.

Gene, 2023
One excellent illustration of how a single gene abnormality may result in a spectrum of disease incidence is the incredible phenotypic variety of β-thalassemia, which spans from severe anemia and transfusion needs to an utterly asymptomatic sickness ...

Pretransfusion hemoglobin level and mortality in adults with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia.

Blood, 2023
In a large cohort of patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia, we demonstrate an association between ascending pretransfusion hemoglobin levels starting at 9.5 g/dL and reduced mortality risk.

A Phase 3 Trial of Luspatercept in Patients with Transfusion-Dependent β-Thalassemia.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2020
BACKGROUND Patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia need regular red-cell transfusions. Luspatercept, a recombinant fusion protein that binds to select transforming growth factor β superfamily ligands, may enhance erythroid maturation and reduce

Exagamglogene Autotemcel for Transfusion-Dependent β-Thalassemia.

New England Journal of Medicine
BACKGROUND Exagamglogene autotemcel (exa-cel) is a nonviral cell therapy designed to reactivate fetal hemoglobin synthesis through ex vivo clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9 gene editing of the erythroid-specific ...
