چکیده
295 Abstract: To investigate erythrocyte membrane protein abnormalities in Çukurova region we studied a family observed to be hereditary spherocytosis. Diagnosis was made basis of clinical features. By densitometric tracing of SDS-PAGE stained by Coomassie Brillant Blue, we found two spectrin deficiency, one ankyrin deficeiency, two spectrin-band 3 deficiency, one ankyrin-band 3 deficiency and one combined spectrinankyrin-band 3 deficiency.

Red cell membrane protein abnormalities as defined by sds-page among patients with anaemia in a west african region hospital practice
Background: Erythrocytes require an ability to deform and to withstand shear stress while negotiating the microcirculation. These properties are largely due to their excess surface area per volume and the characteristics of the membrane’s protein. Deficiencies of these proteins are associated with chronic haemolysis. Methods: This was a cross sectional study aimed at determining the prevalenc...
متن کاملSpinal cord disease in hereditary spherocytosis: report of two cases with a hypothesized common mechanism for neurologic and red cell abnormalities.
Two unrelated patients with hereditary spherocytosis developed idiopathic spinal cord dysfunction. This coincidence, combined with similar individual case reports in the older European literature, suggests that abnormalities may exist in constituents common to red cell membranes and nerve tissue. A similar conclusion has been proposed to explain red cell membrane abnormalities in some of the mu...
متن کاملStudy of a kindred with hereditary spherocytosis and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.
A patient with hereditary spherocytosis (HS) was found to have glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PD) deficiency by electrophoresis of the isolated red cell membranes on polyacrylamide gels with sodium dodecyl sulfate (PAGE SDS) as demonstrated by a diminished band 6 (G3PD) and confirmed by specific enzyme assay. Thirteen members of his family were studied: four were normal, two had HS...

Human parvovirus (HPV) B19 induced aplastic crisis in a family leading to the diagnosis of hereditary spherocytosis (HS) is a very rare condition being barely reported in the literature. We herein report a 4-year-old girl, her brother, and their mother who all presented with progressive pallor and jaundice after a febrile illness. The HPV B19 was diagnosed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) ...
