Fetal calf serum contains activities that induce fetal hemoglobin in adult erythroid cell cultures.
Cultures of peripheral blood or bone marrow erythroid progenitors display stimulated production of fetal hemoglobin. We investigated whether this stimulation is due to factors contained in the sera of the culture medium. Comparisons of gamma/gamma + beta biosynthetic ratios in erythroid colonies grown in fetal calf serum (FCS) or in charcoal treated FCS (C-FCS) showed that FCS-grown cells had s...
متن کاملFetal hemoglobin synthesis in erythroid cultures in hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin and beta o-thalassemia.
To determine whether hemoglobin regulation is normal in diseases affecting beta-globin gene expression, globin synthesis was examined in members of a family of a patient with hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin/beta o-thalassemia (HPFH/beta o-thal). The HPFH defect is the Ghanian type II, with a deletion from psi beta 1 to at least 20 kb 3' to beta. The beta o-thal gene has the haplotype...

متن کاملFK228 Analogues Induce Fetal Hemoglobin in Human Erythroid Progenitors
Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) improves the clinical severity of sickle cell disease (SCD), therefore, research to identify HbF-inducing agents for treatment purposes is desirable. The focus of our study is to investigate the ability of FK228 analogues to induce HbF using a novel KU812 dual-luciferase reporter system. Molecular modeling studies showed that the structure of twenty FK228 analogues with i...
متن کاملFetal hemoglobin production in cultures of primitive and mature human erythroid progenitors: differentiation affects the quantity of fetal hemoglobin produced per fetal-hemoglobin-containing cell.
Single-cell microscopic immunodiffusion assays were used to determine the cellular mechanisms that regulate fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels in cultures of primitive and late erythroid precursors obtained from human adult bone marrow. Two variables--the percentage of cells containing HbF (F cells) and the picograms (pg) of HbF/F cell--were assayed in cells derived from erythroid colony-forming uni...
