Hematological and hemoglobin synthesis studies in a family with deltabeta-thalassemia trait
Abstract:
A Basque Spanish family with heterozygous deltabeta-thalassemia is described. Patients with this anomaly usually present hematological findings observed in classical beta-thalassemia, but clinical conditions and unbalanced chain synthesis are less severe. Our propositus, however, presented clinical and biosynthetic data similar to those described in thalassemia intermedia. A family study was also performed.

Hemoglobin
When all four heme groups are bound to oxygen, the resulting molecule is called oxyhemoglobin. As a result, arterial blood...
Disorders of Erythrocytes
Erythrocyte disorders can be broadly categorized into two main types: anemic and polycythemic conditions.
A low oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood due to the loss, lower production, or destruction of erythrocytes is termed anemia. Hemorrhagic anemia, for example, occurs when bleeding from an external wound or internal ulcer reduces erythrocyte counts.
