Integrative preimplantation genetic testing analysis for a Chinese family with hereditary spherocytosis caused by a novel splicing variant of SPTB [PDF]
Hereditary spherocytosis (HS), the most common inherited hemolytic anemia disorder, is characterized by osmotically fragile microspherocytic red cells with a reduced surface area on the peripheral blood smear.

Acquired spherocytosis in the setting of myelodysplasia
Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) is the most prevalent red blood cell (RBC) membrane disorder. We report a rare case of acquired SPTB spherocytosis coinciding with a myelodysplastic syndrome associated U2AF1 mutation, neither found in germline DNA.

An overview of hereditary spherocytosis and the curative effects of splenectomy
Hereditary spherocytosis is a common hemolytic anemia with different severity. The causes of hereditary spherocytosis are mutations in genes that encode red blood cell (RBC) membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, including ankyrin-1, Band 3 (or AE1), α ...
