Correlation between Plasma Interleukin-3, the α/β Globin Ratio, and Globin mRNA Stability
Background. Globin chain synthesis (GCS) analysis is used in the diagnosis of thalassemia. However, the wide reference range limits its use as a decisive diagnostic tool. It has been shown thatαandβ globin mRNAincrease through stimulation of cells by interleukin-3 (IL-3). Therefore, this study investigates the relationship between plasma IL-3 and theβ/

Erythroid-specific expression of β-globin from Sleeping Beauty-transduced human hematopoietic progenitor cells. [PDF]
Gene therapy for sickle cell disease will require efficient delivery of a tightly regulated and stably expressed gene product to provide an effective therapy. In this study we utilized the non-viral Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposon system using the SB100X

Bradykinin stimulation of nitric oxide production is not sufficient for gamma-globin induction [PDF]
Introduction. Hydroxycarbamide, used in therapy of hemoglobinopathies, enhances nitric oxide (NO) production both in primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and human bone marrow endothelial cell line (TrHBMEC).

The αβ- andα2α1-globin mRNA ratios in different forms of α-thalassemia
AbstractThe present study provides information about the αβandα2α1-mRNA ratios in reticulocytes of normal adults and with different α-globin gene deficiencies; it found its origin in analytical data of blood samples from a Laotian couple and their newborn baby.

Decrease of alpha-chains in beta-thalassemia
In the pathophysiology of beta-thalassemia, globin chain imbalance plays a central role in predicting red blood cell (RBC) life span and disease severity. Strategies to improve globin chain imbalance are therefore a legitimate target in the management of
