Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency Associated with Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia in an Iranian Family
author
Abstract:
Sickle cell-thalassemia associated with glucose- 6-phosphate dehydrogenese deficiency is reported in an Iranian family. The father had sickle trait and G.6.P.D. deficiency, the mother minor thalassemia, one of the sons siclc:le ceH-thailasemiia., the oth-er sickle cell trait; the daughter had sickle cell-thalassemia and was carrier of G.6.P.D. deficiellcy.

Prevalence of beta-thalassemia trait and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in Iranian Jews.
BACKGROUND beta-thalassemia is the most common inherited single gene disorder worldwide, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common human enzyme deficiency. The goal of this study was to compare the frequency of beta-thalassemia trait and G6PD among the Moslem and Jewish populations in Shiraz, southern Iran. METHODS We examined 201 Moslems and 187 Jewish subjec...

Background: Jaundice is affecting over 60-80 percent of neonates in the first week of life. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, which is an important cause of pathologic hyperbilirubinemia, can lead to hemolytic anemia, jaundice and kernicterus. The present study was performed to determine the prevalence of G6PD deficiency among icteric neonates in Shirvan, Iran. Methods: This...

The glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) genotype was determined in 100 male patients with homozygous sickle cell anemia (55) by a combination of quantitative assay, cytochemical testing, and starch-gel electrophoresis. Of the 100 patients tested, 16 were found to be G6PD deficient (GdA_), and 84 G6PD normal (22 GsA and 62 Gd’). This distribution of G6PD genotypes did not differ significant...

The glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) genotype was determined in 100 male patients with homozygous sickle cell anemia (SS) by a combination of quantitative assay, cytochemical testing, and starch-gel electrophoresis. Of the 100 patients tested, 16 were found to be G6PD deficient (GdA-), AND 84 G6PD normal (22GsA and 62 GdB). This distribution of G6PD genotypes did not differ significantl...
