The S-window hemoglobin (Hb) variants revealed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were studied in 12 Thai individuals. The variants were identified, using DNA sequencing and multiplex amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR), to be six cases of Hb Tak [beta147 (+AC)], and six cases of Hb Q-Thailand [alpha74(EF3)Asp-->His], respectively. By using the Capillarys 2-capillary zone electrophoresis (CE), Hb Tak and Hb Q-Thailand co-migrated with Hb F in zone 7. This might pose a problem as the high Hb F conditions suggest a differential diagnosis. The S-window Hb variants are mostly Hb Tak and Hb Q-Thailand in the Thai population rather than Hb S [beta6(A3)Glu-->Val]. The definite identification of Hb variants detected by HPLC or capillary electrophoresis (CE) requires DNA analysis.
对12名泰国个体中通过高效液相色谱法(HPLC)检测出的S窗血红蛋白(Hb)变异体进行了研究。利用DNA测序和多重扩增不应性突变系统-聚合酶链反应(ARMS-PCR)鉴定出这些变异体分别为6例Hb Tak [β147(+AC)]和6例Hb Q-泰国 [α74(EF3)天冬氨酸→组氨酸]。通过使用Capillarys 2-毛细管区带电泳(CE),Hb Tak和Hb Q-泰国在第7区与Hb F共迁移。由于高Hb F情况提示鉴别诊断,这可能会带来问题。在泰国人群中,S窗Hb变异体大多是Hb Tak和Hb Q-泰国,而非Hb S [β6(A3)谷氨酸→缬氨酸]。通过HPLC或毛细管电泳(CE)检测到的Hb变异体的明确鉴定需要进行DNA分析。
