Beta-thalassemia: renal complications and mechanisms: a narrative review

open access: yesHematology, 2019
Objectives: Beta-thalassemias are a group of recessively autosomal inherited disorders of hemoglobin synthesis, which, due to mutations of the beta-globin gene, lead to various degrees of defective beta-chain production, an imbalance in alpha/beta-globin

Prevalence of the C282Y and H63D mutations of the HFE hemochromatosis gene in Azerian major β-thalassemia and iron overload [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this study, we have determined the allele frequency of HFE mutations H63D and C282Y in a group of Azerian beta-thalassemia major patients. These two mutations are implicated in hereditary hemochromatosis among Caucasians.

Efficacy of lactoferrin oral administration in the treatment of anemia and anemia of inflammation in pregnant and non-pregnant women: an interventional study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The discovery of the ferroportin-hepcidin complex has led to a critical review on the treatment of anemia and anemia of inflammation (AI). Ferroportin, the only known mammalian iron exporter from cells to blood, is negatively regulated by hepcidin, a ...

Single‐Position Peptide Clustering for Peptidomics Reveals Novel Disease Biomarkers and Dysregulated Proteolytic Characteristics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel amino acid (aa)‐score‐based single‐position peptide clustering strategy is developed for peptidomics, enabling precise profiling of protein proteolysis in plasma from β‐thalassemia cohort. The method identifies new aa position‐based peptide cluster biomarkers validated by heavy‐labeled peptides, visualizes aggregated changes, uncovers disease ...

Effect of zinc supplementation on serum mlondealdehyde and lipid profiles on beta thalassemia major patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objectives: Thalassemic patients are seriously at risk of serum dislipidemia, zinc deficiency and tissue damage due to oxidative stress induced by iron storage.

Beta O-thalassemia intermedia [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1978
Abstract Three patients with a relatively mild form of beta O-thalassemia who did not require regular blood transfusions are described. Globin synthesis was studied by gel filtration and urea-carboxymethylcellulose chromatography of stroma-free hemolysates prepared from peripheral blood and bone marrow cells labeled in vitro with 14C ...

Discovery of a Novel DNMT1 Inhibitor with Improved Efficacy in Treating β‐Thalassemia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Context of Research: β‐thalassemia affects millions worldwide. DNMT inhibitors are effective HbF‐inducers that benefit patients with β‐thalassemia. Existing DNMT inhibitors are not approved for β‐thalassemia treatment due to dose‐limiting toxicity.What We Find: DMT207 traps DNMT1 into helix‐kinked inactive conformation and enhances its interaction with
