Hemoglobin Westmead

08/01/2010 - "The mutational spectrum among the local population for each type of disorder was described, including the first report on the true prevalence of three silent alpha thalassemia defects, -alpha(3.7)/(4.78%), -alpha(4.2)/(1.61%) and Hb Westmead (alpha(WS)alpha/) (1.57%) and of delta-thalassemia resulting from five novel and two rare mutations never before identified in Chinese individuals. "
05/01/2004 - "One sibling also harbors Hb Westmead, giving an unusual genotype of beta0/beta(+)-thalassemia and (- -SEA) alpha-thalassemia/Hb Westmead. "
05/01/2004 - "Thalassemia intermedia due to co-inheritance of beta0/beta(+)-thalassemia and (- -SEA) alpha-thalassemia/Hb Westmead [alpha122(H5)His > Gln (alpha2)] in a Chinese family."
02/01/2001 - "Hb Constant Spring (Hb CS) and Hb Quong Sze (Hb QS), two most commonly types of the non-deletion alpha-thalassemia distributed in Chinese, and a rare type of the Hb Westmead mutation, alpha2 CD122 CAC-->CAG(His-->Gln) could be detected by PCR-TGGE. "
10/01/2015 - "Out of 11 cases of alpha-thalassemia 7 cases were proved to be the gene deletion, accounting for 64% (7/11), and the specific genotype distribution was as follows: 4 cases of αα/-α(3.7), 2 cases of αα/-SEA, 1 case of αα/-α(4.2), the remaining 4 cases with point mutations (4/11, 36%): Hb Part-Dieu hybrid, Hb Quong Sze hybrid, Hb Westmead hybrid, HBA1: c. "

02/06/2023 - "The proband was identified to have co-inherited ɑ-thalassemia (Hb Westmead gene heterozygous mutation, ɑwsɑ/ɑɑ) and β-thalassemia with a rare -88 C>G (HBB: c.-138 C>G) heterozygous mutation (β-88 C>G/βN). "
05/01/2020 - "Hb Westmead (α122(H5)His>Gln) (HBA2: c.369C>G) is a common α-globin variant causing α-thalassemia (α-thal) in Mainland China. "

01/01/2020 - "Herein, a novel one-step assay for genotyping of nondeletional α-thalassemia mutations, including hemoglobin (Hb) Westmead (HBA2: c.369C>G), Hb Quong Sze (HBA2: c.377T>C), Hb Constant Spring (HBA2: c.427T>C), CD30 (HBA2: c.91-93delGAG), and CD31 (HBA2: c.95G>A) in a single closed tube, was established and evaluated.
