The -92 (C>T) (: c.-142C>T) is a silent β-thalassemia (β-thal) mutation previously described in combination with several β mutations and expressed as β-thal intermedia (β-TI). Heterozygous individuals are known to be completely asymptomatic showing borderline hemoglobin (Hb), mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and Hb A levels. Here, we report the first incidence of -92 in Eastern Europe and in Azerbaijan, and the first case in combination with codons 36/37 (-T) (: c.112delT) mutation.
-92(C>T)(:c.-142C>T)是一种沉默的β地中海贫血(β-地贫)突变,此前曾与多种β突变一起被描述,并表现为中间型β地中海贫血(β-TI)。已知杂合子个体完全无症状,血红蛋白(Hb)、平均红细胞体积(MCV)和Hb A水平处于临界值。在此,我们报告了-92在东欧和阿塞拜疆的首例发生率,以及与密码子36/37(-T)(:c.112delT)突变组合的首例病例。
