Inherited thrombocytopenias: the beat goes on [PDF]
In this issue of Blood, Bottega et al document mutations in ACTN1, which encodes the cytoskeletal protein α-actinin 1, in 10 of 239 consecutive probands with an inherited thrombocytopenia--making ACTN1 an important cause of familial thrombocytopenia.

Syndromes predisposing to leukemia are a major cause of inherited cytopenias in children
Prolonged cytopenias are a non-specific sign with a wide differential diagnosis. Among inherited disorders, cytopenias predisposing to leukemia require a timely and accurate diagnosis to ensure appropriate medical management, including adequate ...

Background Bernard-Soulier syndrome is a very rare form of inherited thrombocytopenia that derives from mutations in GPIbα, GPIbβ, or GPIX and is typically inherited as a recessive disease. However, some years ago it was shown that the monoallelic c.515C>

Neonatal Alloimmune Thrombocytopenia Detected After Traumatic Delivery: Case Report
Neonatal Alloimmune Thrombocytopenia (NAIT), a complication of maternal alloimmunization against fetal platelets, is the result of immune destruction of platelets due to maternal antibodies in the early period.

PTPRJ: a novel inherited thrombocytopenia gene. [PDF]
In this issue of Blood , Marconi et al use a high-throughput exome-sequencing approach to identify 2 biallelic loss-of-function mutations in PTPRJ that caused autosomal-recessive thrombocytopenia and a bleeding disorder in 2 siblings ...

Molecular basis of inherited thrombocytopenias [PDF]
Inherited thrombocytopenias (IT) are a heterogeneous group of diseases caused by at least 20 different genes. At present, these genes account for approximately 50% of cases, suggesting that novel genes have yet to be identified for a comprehensive understanding of platelet biogenesis defects.
