DISEASE: Thalassemia

Entry

H00228                      Disease

Name

Thalassemia

Subgroup

Alpha Thalassemia
Beta Thalassemia
Alpha Thalassemia, X-linked (ATRX) [DS:H01752]

Description

Thalassemia is the most common hereditary blood disease caused by mutation of genes encoding hemoglobin alpha and beta chains. The anemia that is associated with thalassemia is caused by ineffective erythropoiesis which results from apoptosis of erythroid precursors or hemolysis due to the chain imbalances.
