摘要: The aim of the present work was to understand pathophysiology severe human thalassemias as represented by beta-thalassemia intermedia and hemoglobin (Hb) H (alpha-thalassemia) disease. We have previously shown that material properties red blood cell (RBC) its membrane differ in alpha- beta-thalassemia, we now show this difference is probably caused accumulation alpha-globin chains at cytoskeleton whereas beta-globin are associated with thalassemia. In both some these globin become oxidized evidenced loss free thiols. Furthermore, there similar evidence oxidation protein 4.1 beta-spectrin appears be subject alpha-thalassemia. These observations support idea association partly results adjacent skeletal proteins. abnormality consistent a prior observation, also accord known importance maintenance stability, property abnormal beta-thalassemic membranes.
