A RARE CAUSE OF SIDEROBLASTIC ANEMIA: TRNT1 MUTATION
Case report: tRNA nucleotidyltransferase 1(TRNT1) gene encodes a polymerase involved in the maturation of cytosolic and mitochondrial transfer RNAs. Autosomal recessive loss of function mutations of TRNT1 leads sideroblastic anemia, immunodeficiency ...

Erythropoiesis in health and disease: Distinguishing defective and ineffective erythropoiesis. [PDF]
Abstract Erythropoiesis is a finely regulated process ensuring continuous red blood cell production to maintain oxygen delivery. Disruptions in this process give rise to defective erythropoiesis, characterized by impaired lineage commitment and progenitor development, and ineffective erythropoiesis (IE), marked by expansion of erythroid progenitors ...

Sideroblastic Anemia in a Young Woman Being Treated for Wilson Disease
D-penicillamine and zinc are both useful in the treatment of Wilson disease. Both drugs can cause pancytopenia by the direct toxic effect on the marrow or sideroblastic anemia caused by hyperzincemia-induced hypocupremia. Although serum copper levels are

IARS2-related disease manifesting as sideroblastic anemia and hypoparathyroidism: A case report
Background IARS2 (EC6.1.5) is a mitochondrial isoleucine-tRNA synthetase. Despite the fact that only fewer than 30 patients have been reported in the literature, mitochondrial disorders caused by pathogenic variants in the IARS2 gene (OMIM: 616007) have ...

X-Linked Sideroblastic Anaemia Caused by Intronic <i>ALAS2</i> Variant Resulting in Highly Variable Expressive Phenotype in Male Siblings, a Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT X‐linked sideroblastic anaemia (XLSA) is a rare hereditary disorder caused by mutations in the ALAS2 gene, essential for haem biosynthesis. We report two male siblings, the first of whom developed severe microcytic hypochromic anaemia requiring regular transfusions, iron chelation and an allogeneic bone marrow transplant, while his brother ...
