Haemoglobin H Disease in an English Family.
Thalassaemia is a hereditary anaemia of widespread geographical distribution with marked variation in clinical severity. Morphological changes in the erythrocytes include microcytosis, anisopoikilocytosis, and the presence of target cells, while an increase in erythrocytic osmotic resistance is characteristic. The haemoglobin content of the erythrocytes is reduced and the present aetiological c...
متن کاملNew 13-Chain Variant of Haemoglobin A Found in Combination with Haemoglobin S
During a routine study of the parents of a 3month-old Jamaican child with the sickle-cell trait the father was found to have a haemoglobin electrophoretic pattern identical to that of homozygous sickle-cell disease. Because he was perfectly well and had no haematological abnormalities detailed studies of his haemoglobin constitution were undertaken. These indicate that he is heterozygous for bo...
متن کاملHaemoglobin J Tongariki (alpha-115 alanine--aspartic acid): the first new haemoglobin variant found in a Pacific (Melanesian) population.
In the course of a medico-genetic-anthropological investigation in I963 of the population of the island of Tongariki, in the Shepherd group of the New Hebrides, a haemoglobin variant was detected with a mobility which was greater than that of normal Hb on electrophoresis at alkaline pH, both by starch gel and by paper electrophoresis. The variant was found in this first survey in 17 of 228 pers...
متن کاملHaemoglobin LeporeBoston in a Turkish family.
Haemoglobin Lepore was demonstrated in four members of a Turkish family. It was found in the heterozygote state and was associated with erythrocyte morphology similar to that observed in the beta thalassaemia trait. The average concentration of haemoglobin Lepore was 8.1% of the total haemoglobin. Structural analysis showed that the Lepore haemoglobin was the LeporeBoston type. This is the firs...
متن کاملHaemoglobin Porto Alegre in a Cuban family.
During a screening programme for abnormal haemoglobins in Habana, one case of Hb Porto Alegre was found in 23 000 cases analysed. The ability of this variant to polymerise in vitro and the absence of clinical features in the carriers have been confirmed. These observations are now explained by the findings of high levels of glutathione in the red cells of subjects heterozygous for Hb Porto Aleg...
