Inherited thrombocytopenias: the beat goes on [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2015
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.

Clinical and pathogenic features of ETV6-related thrombocytopenia with predisposition to acute lymphoblastic leukemia

open access: yesHaematologica, 2016
ETV6-related thrombocytopenia is an autosomal dominant thrombocytopenia that has been recently identified in a few families and has been suspected to predispose to hematologic malignancies.

Syndromes predisposing to leukemia are a major cause of inherited cytopenias in children

open access: yesHaematologica, 2022
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 ...

“CHildren with Inherited Platelet disorders Surveillance” (CHIPS) retrospective and prospective observational cohort study by Italian Association of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology (AIEOP)

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
BackgroundInherited thrombocytopenias (ITs) are rare congenital bleeding disorders characterized by different clinical expression and variable prognosis. ITs are poorly known by clinicians and often misdiagnosed with most common forms of thrombocytopenia.

Clinical and laboratory features of 103 patients from 42 Italian families with inherited thrombocytopenia derived from the monoallelic Ala156Val mutation of GPIbα (Bolzano mutation)

open access: yesHaematologica, 2012
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>

More than just mild thrombocytopenia: Clinical clues in the diagnosis of germline predisposition to malignancy from a rare ETV6 variant

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2023
Key Clinical Message In the evaluation of patients with longstanding mild thrombocytopenia, emphasis on family history, genetic testing, and collaborative clinical and laboratory‐based family studies can ensure proper diagnosis and monitoring for ...

Neonatal Alloimmune Thrombocytopenia Detected After Traumatic Delivery: Case Report

open access: yesForbes Tıp Dergisi, 2021
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]

open access: yesBlood, 2019
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]

open access: yesClinical Genetics, 2015
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.
