Possible association of 3′ UTR+ 357 A> G, IVS11-nt 93 T> C, c. 1311 C> T polymorphism with G6PD deficiency

Sirdah, Mahmoud; Shubair, Mohammad E.; Al-Kahlout, Mustafa S; Al-Tayeb, Jamal M; Prchal, Josef T; Reading, N Scott (Taylor & Francis, 2017)

Background: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a common X-linked inherited enzymopathic disorder affecting more than 500 million people worldwide. It has so far been linked to 217 distinct genetic ...

Favism, the commonest form of severe hemolytic anemia in Palestinian children, varies in severity with three different variants of G6PD deficiency within the same community

Reading, N Scott; Sirdah, Mahmoud; Shubair, Mohammad E.; Nelson, Benjamin E; Al-Kahlout, Mustafa S; Al-Tayeb, Jamal M; Aboud, Lina; Abu Shaban, Maysaa; Luzzatto, Lucio; Prchal, Josef T (Academic Press, 2016)

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a common genetic abnormality known to predispose to acute hemolytic anemia (AHA), which can be triggered by certain drugs or infection. However, the commonest trigger ...

Clinical Significance of G6PD Variants among Palestinians

Reading, N Scott; Sirdah, Mahmoud; Shubair, Mohammad E.; Nelson, Benjamin E; Al-Kahlout, Mustafa S; Al-Tayeb, Jamal M; Aboud, Lina; Abu Shaban, Maysaa; Luzzatto, Lucio; Prchal, Josef T (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2016)

Conclusion: We conclude that children with G6PD A-deficiency are also susceptible to AHA, but demonstrate in direct comparison within this same population that G6PD Mediterranean and G6PD Cairo are more severe forms of ...

Sirdah, Mahmoud; Vankayalapati, Hariprasad; Perkins, Sherrie L; Shubair, Mohammad E.; Aboud, Lina; Roper, David; Prchal, Josef T (Academic Press, 2012)

Background Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, affecting more than 500 million people worldwide, is one of the most common of inherited disorders. There are 186 G6PD mutations published, with mutational ...

Reading, Noel S; Sirdah, Mahmoud; Perkins, Sherrie L; Wilson, Andrew R; Shubair, Mohammad E.; Aboud, Lina; Prchal, Josef T (American Society of Hematology, 2012)

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, affecting more than 500 million people worldwide, is one of the most common inherited disorders. There are 186 G6PD mutations published, with some that cluster within ...

Hemolysis and Mediterranean G6PD mutation (c. 563 C> T) and c. 1311 C> T polymorphism among Palestinians at Gaza Strip

Sirdah, Mahmoud; Perkins, Sherrie L; Shubair, Mohammad E.; Aboud, Lina; Prchal, Josef T (Academic Press, 2012)

Background The G6PD c.563 C > T deficient mutation is endemic among Mediterranean populations but its clinical significance is not well delineated. We set up to estimate the proportion of G6PD deficient children presenting ...
