Oral Cryptococcosis due to Naganishia diffluens in a Patient With Thalassemia: A Case Report and a Literature Review

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Naganishia diffluens, a rare non‐neoformans cryptococcal species, was identified by PCR sequencing as the causative agent of oral cryptococcosis in a 31‐year‐old Iranian man with β‐thalassemia. This case represents the first documented instance of oral infection by N.

Therapeutic Potential of Cytoglobin and Neuroglobin in Oxidative Stress-Driven Liver Diseases

Antioxidants
Chronic liver diseases, including fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), are primarily driven by oxidative stress, yet traditional antioxidant therapies often lack the specificity and efficacy required for clinical success.

The globin gene family of the cephalochordate amphioxus: implications for chordate globin evolution

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background The lancelet amphioxus (Cephalochordata) is a close relative of vertebrates and thus may enhance our understanding of vertebrate gene and genome evolution.

Comparative genomics of neuroglobin reveals its early origins. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Neuroglobin (Ngb) is a hexacoordinated globin expressed mainly in the central and peripheral nervous system of vertebrates. Although several hypotheses have been put forward regarding the role of neuroglobin, its definite function remains uncertain.

Globin Gene Switching in Transgenic Mice Carrying HS2-Globin Gene Constructs [PDF]

Blood, 1997
Abstract We have examined the pattern of human globin gene switching in transgenic mice containing three different γ and β gene constructs (HS2GγAγδβ, HS2Aγβneo, and HS2Aγenβ) and compared the results with previously described transgenics (HS2Aγβ, HS2GγAγ-117δβ, and LCRεGγAγδβ).

Heterozygous Beta‐Thalassaemia in Pregnancy: Two Rare Causes of Severe Fetal Anemia Requiring Intrauterine Blood Transfusions

Prenatal 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.

Neuroglobina: nuevo miembro de la familia de las globinas Neuroglobin: a novel member of the globin family

Revista Cubana de Hematología, Inmunología y Hemoterapia, 2011
Durante mucho tiempo se asumió que la hemoglobina y la mioglobina eran las únicas globinas de los vertebrados. En el año 2000 se descubrió un tercer tipo de globina, que sobre la base de su ubicación preferencial en el sistema nervioso fue denominada ...

A membrane-bound vertebrate globin.

PLoS ONE, 2011
The family of vertebrate globins includes hemoglobin, myoglobin, and other O(2)-binding proteins of yet unclear functions. Among these, globin X is restricted to fish and amphibians.

HisE11 and HisF8 Provide Bis-histidyl Heme Hexa-coordination in the Globin Domain of Geobacter sulfurreducens Globin-coupled Sensor [PDF]

, 2009
Among heme-based sensors, recent phylogenomic and sequence analyses have identified 34 globin coupled sensors (GCS), to which an aerotactic or gene-regulating function has been tentatively ascribed.

Prenatal Exome Sequencing Identifies Dual Maternal‐Fetal Diagnosis of HbF Mission Bay, a Novel HBG2 Variant Associated With Methemoglobinemia, Hypoxia and Hemolytic Anemia

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prenatal exome sequencing (ES) can establish rare genetic diagnoses in a fetus but may also lead to occult genetic diagnosis in a biological parent. We present a case of dual fetal and maternal diagnosis by prenatal ES, in a fetus with unexplained anemia and in a pregnant patient with sickle cell disease (SCD) and recurrent unexplained hypoxia.
