The objective of this review is to present examples of lead compounds identified from biological material (fungi, plant extracts and agro-industry material) and of possible interest in the field of a pharmacological approach to the therapy of beta-thalassemia using molecules able to stimulate production of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in adults. Concerning the employment of HbF inducers as potential ...
A transition from fetal hemoglobin (HbF) to adult hemoglobin (HbA) normally occurs within a few months after birth. Increased production of HbF after this period of infancy ameliorates clinical symptoms of the major disorders of adult β-hemoglobin: β-thalassemia and sickle cell disease. The transcription factor BCL11A silences HbF and has been an attractive therapeutic target for increasing HbF...
In the phase I/II pediatric hydroxyurea safety trial (HUG-KIDS), school-aged children with sickle cell anemia receiving hydroxyurea at the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) had variable increases in the percentage of fetal hemoglobin (%HbF). To identify predictors of the HbF response to hydroxyurea therapy, baseline clinical and laboratory values (age, sex, hemoglobin concentration, %HbF, reticulo...
An increased prevalence of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) has been described in pediatric insulin-dependent patients. The popular electroendosmotic method for glycohemoglobin includes HbF. In an adult population comprising 50 insulin-treated and 57 non-insulin-treated diabetic patients and 57 control subjects, we measured HbF by HPLC and measured glycohemoglobin by both HPLC and an electroendosmotic me...
BACKGROUND High levels of fetal haemoglobin (HbF) decrease sickle cell anaemia (SCA) severity and leads to improved survival. According to in vivo and in vitro studies, butyrate increases HbF production. Its utilization in clinical practice is hampered, however, by its short half-life. Serum butyrate concentrations could be enhanced by colonic bacterial fermentation of Gum Arabic (GA), edible, ...
Hydroxyurea (HU) enhances the production of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) and on the other hand this event can decreases the frequency of painful crises in sickle cell anemia (SCA). We studied the efficiency of HU in reducing painful crises and it’s effect on HbF production rate and on other hematologic values in 40 SCA patients. Median age of patients was 20 years. Eighteen were male and 22 were fe...

beta-Thalassemia and sickle cell disease both display a great deal of phenotypic heterogeneity, despite being generally thought of as simple Mendelian diseases. The reasons for this are not well understood, although the level of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is one well characterized ameliorating factor in both of these conditions. To better understand the genetic basis of this heterogeneity, we carri...
To test directly whether the control of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in the adult takes place at the level of erythroid progenitors or at the level of erythroblasts, we treated animals with high doses of erythropoietin and examined the effects of this manipulation on the globin gene programs of erythroid progenitors. We found that administration of erythropoietin produced a rapid expansion of all cla...
To correlate amino acid sequence changes with hemoglobin function we are carrying out a detailed recombinant analysis of the adult hemoglobin/fetal hemoglobin (HbA/HbF) systems. The important physiological differences between these two tetramers lie at unspecified sites in the 39 sequence substitutions of the 146 amino acids in their beta and gamma chains. In this paper, significant differences...
