Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) A49G polymorphism and autoimmune blood diseases [PDF]

, 2010
Objective: The cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) is expressed on T lymphocytes, and inhibits the T-cell responses. In animal models, it has been shown that complete CTLA-4 deficiency was lethal due to massive infiltration of tissues by

Molecular Testing in Sickle Cell Disease: From Newborn Screening to Transfusion Care

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most frequent monogenic diseases worldwide and a highly heterogeneous and complex disease. SCD care carries several challenges. This includes early and accurate diagnosis as well as optimal red blood cell transfusion matching in this population carrying a high risk of alloimmunization.

The Prevalence of Peripheral Erythrophagocytosis in Pediatric Immune-Mediated Hemolytic Anemia

Hematology Reports
Background: Peripheral erythrophagocytosis appears to be a unique sign of acquired immune-mediated hemolytic anemia. It is said to be rare but its prevalence among patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia has not been studied.

Evaluation of the Diagnostic Accuracy of the Quantitative Point‐of‐Care SD Biosensor Standard G6PD Test for Assessment of G6PD Deficiency in Infectious Diseases

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background G6PD deficiency affects about 500 million people worldwide and is prevalent in many malaria‐endemic settings. People with G6PD deficiency are at risk of hemolysis when exposed to certain medications, including 8‐aminoquinoline drugs used to treat Plasmodium vivax malaria.

Epidemiology and Genetics of Rheumatic Diseases Suggest a Constant Rate of DNA Damage as Underlying Cause

Immunology, EarlyView.
A constant rate of DNA damage that is not perfectly repaired will cause a constant rate of DNA mutations. The chance of mutation will increase if DNA is prone to damage, such as occurs in somatic hypermutation (SHM) hotspots and GC‐rich DNA. Thus, if one mutation‐prone DNA site drives disease, the age of onset of disease and degree of penetrance should
