ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the genotype distribution of thalassemia intermedia , major and compound thalassemia in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2012 to 2015. Methods Retrospectively 1 084 suspected thalassemia cases were analyzed in recent four years .Three common deletions of αglobin chain were detected by GAP-PCR.Three common point mutations of αglobin chain and seventeen common mutations of βglobin chain were identified by PCR reverse dot blot hybridization . Hemoglobin electrophoresis was carried out by Capillary Electrophoresis System .RBC associated parameters and morphology were analyzed by hematology analyzer and blood smear .Results 702 cases were confirmed to be thalassemia, and the positive rate was 64.76% (702 /1084).19 types of gene defects were detected. There were 4 types of gene defects in 23 case with α-thalassemia intermeida, including -α3.7 /--SEA , -α4.2 /--SEA , αCSα/--SEA and αQSα/--SEA , -α3.7 /--SEA to be the most common genotype (18 cases) .3 cases with β-thalassemia intermeida were confirmed and the genotypes were βCD 17(A→T) /β-29(A→G) , β-28(A→G) /β-28(A→G) andβIVS-Ⅱ-654(C→T) /βCD17(A→T) , respectively.There were also 1 βCD 41 -42(-TTCT) /βCD17(A→T) thalassemia major case. The genotypes of 2 HbE/β-thalassemia cases were βCD41 -42(-TTCT) /βE and βCD17(A→T) /βE.5 αβ-thalassemia including 2 βCD 41 -42(-TTCT) /βA compounded with αα/-α3.7 , 1βIVS-Ⅱ-654(C→T) /βA compounded with --SEA /αCSα, 1βCD17(A→T) /βA compounded with -α4.2 /ααand 1βCD 41 -42(-TTCT) /βA compounded with αCS α/αα.Rare and untypical haematological results were found , such as normal level HbA 2 and undetectable HbH, in compound heterozygosity with --SEA /αCS α and βIVS-Ⅱ-654(C→T) /βA. Conclusions The genotypes of thalassemia intermedia, major and compound thalassemia in Peking Union Medical College were highly variable .
