American College of Rheumatology Guidance Statement for Diagnosis and Management of VEXAS Developed by the International VEXAS Working Group Expert Panel

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Vacuoles E1 enzyme X‐linked autoinflammatory somatic syndrome (VEXAS) is a recently identified rare genetic disorder associated with somatic mutations in the UBA1 gene. VEXAS presents with a combination of inflammatory and hematologic manifestations, leading to increased morbidity and mortality.

Nano‐networks via reaction‐induced self‐assembly coordinate spatiotemporal multi‐drug delivery for acute kidney injury therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Multifunctional nano‐networks (NNWs) are prepared via reaction‐induced self‐assembly (RISA) of spermidine (SPD), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), 2‐formylphenylboronic acid (2‐FPBA), and deferoxamine (DFO) through dynamic iminoboronate bonds. These NNWs leverage the oxidative AKI microenvironment to trigger disintegration, enabling site‐specific ...

Effect of Epigallocatechin‐3‐Gallate on Depression‐Related Cytokines in Thalassemia Patients: Molecular and Cellular Evaluation

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effects of Epigallocatechin‐3‐Gallate (EGCG), a potent anti‐inflammatory polyphenol isolated from Winged Marigold, on cytokine expression linked to depression in β‐thalassemia patients. EGCG demonstrated dose‐dependent suppression of key inflammatory cytokines (IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α, IFN‐γ) at both gene and protein levels ...

Cytoprotective effects of the antioxidant phytochemical indicaxanthin in beta-thalassemia red blood cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Antioxidant phytochemicals are investigated as novel treatments for supportive therapy in b-thalassemia. The dietary indicaxanthin was assessed for its protective effects on human b-thalassemic RBCs submitted in vitro to oxidative haemolysis by cumene ...

Alpha- Thalassemia: An Overview

open access: yesScholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences, 2023
Alpha-Thalassemia is the commonest hereditary monogenic disease worldwide. α-thalassemia is caused by α-globin gene losses and categorized into α-thalassemia 1 and α-thalassemia 2 depending on how many α-globin genes are functioning. Α thalassemia 1 is defined by inactivation of both α-globin genes on a chromosome, while in α-thalassemia 2, one gene is

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.

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
