Alpha-thalassemia in two Mediterranean populations [PDF]
Blood, 1982 Abstract We used restriction endonuclease analysis to determine the incidence of alpha-thalassemia in two Mediterranean islands. In a random population sample, the gene frequency of deletion-type alpha-thalassemia-2 (- alpha) was 0.18 in Sardinians and 0.07 in Greek Cypriots. All cases were the rightward crossover type.

Update in Laboratory Diagnosis of Thalassemia
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020 Alpha- and β-thalassemias and abnormal hemoglobin (Hb) are common in tropical countries. These abnormal globin genes in different combinations lead to many thalassemic diseases including three severe thalassemia diseases, i.e., homozygous β-thalassemia ...

Thalassemia, a human blood disorder
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2021 A group of inherited blood defects is known as Thalassemia is among the world’s most prevalent hemoglobinopathies. Thalassemias are of two types such as Alpha and Beta Thalassemia. The cause of these defects is gene mutations leading to low levels and/or

Thalassemia intermedia as a result of heterozygosis for ß0-thalassemia and aaaanti-3.7/aa genotype in a Brazilian patient [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2003 We report a case in which the interaction of heterozygosis for both the ß0-IVS-II-1 (G->A) mutation and the aaaanti-3.7 allele was the probable cause for the clinical occurrence of thalassemia intermedia.
