摘要: 目的:了解3种少见α地中海贫血点突变[血红蛋白Constants Spring(Hb CS),血红蛋白Westmead(Hb WS)和血红蛋白Quong Sze(Hb QS)]杂合子与双重杂合子的临床特征。方法:收集135例上述3种α-地中海贫血点突变的杂合子与双重杂合子患者和正常对照男女各20例,进行血常规参数分析、血红蛋白分析、等位基因特异性寡核苷酸探针反向斑点杂交方法(RDB)和多重跨越断裂点聚合酶链反应(PCR)方法检测基因型。结果:杂合子组、Hb CS和Hb WS双重杂合子(αCSα/αWSα)组均无临床表现,但Hb QS杂合子(αQSα/αα)组的红细胞平均体积(MCV)和红细胞平均血红蛋白(MCH)值小于其余杂合子组(P<0.05)。Hb CS和Hb QS双重杂合子(αCSα/αQSα)组有轻微的临床表现,MCV和MCH值低于Hb CS杂合子和Hb WS杂合子组(P<0.05)。结论:Hb CS杂合子组和Hb WS杂合子组表现为静止型地中海贫血,Hb QS杂合子组更接近轻型地中海贫血。双重杂合子表型多样,Hb CS和Hb WS双重杂合子表现接近于静止型地中海贫血,而Hb CS和Hb QS双重杂合子表现类似中间型α地中海贫血(Hb H病),在遗传咨询中需注意。

Abstract: Objective:To examine clinical characteristics of heterozygote and double heterozygote of three rare mutations [Hb Constants Spring(Hb CS),Hb Westmead(Hb WS) and Hb Quong Sze(Hb QS)] among alpha-thalassemia patients in Guangxi province, China. Methods:135 alpha-thalassemia patients, and 40 controls, were included in this study. Routine examination of blood and hemoglobin electrophoresis were performed. The alpha-thalassemia mutations were detected using Gap-PCR and reverse dot-blotting. Results:There were no clinical symptoms in three heterozygote groups and the double heterozygote group of αCSα/αWSα. MCV and MCH in the heterozygote group of Hb QS were significantly lower than those in other heterozygote groups(Hb CS and Hb WS)(P<0.05). However,there was mild clinical symptoms in the double heterozygote group of αCSα/αQSα, while MCV and MCH were also significantly lower than those in other heterozygote groups(Hb CS and Hb WS)(P<0.05). Conclusions: The heterozygote Hb CS,heterozygote Hb WS and double heterozygote αCSα/αWSα are the silent carrier in clinical manifestations, the heterozygote Hb QS is the thalassemia trait, and the double heterozygote αCSα/αQSα is similar to the HbH disease. It is important to note this variability of clinical manifestations of those double heterozygotes in genetic consultation.
