Non-deletional hemoglobin H disease caused by rare α-globin gene mutations combined with Southeast Asian deletion

  • 摘要: 目的:分析非缺失型血红蛋白H(hemoglobin H,Hb H)病基因突变类型,探讨不同基因型与临床表型的关系,并分析罕见α-珠蛋白基因突变类型、血液学特征和临床表现,为临床诊疗、遗传咨询和产前诊断提供依据。方法:对2024年1月至2026年1月于广西医科大学第一附属医院进行α-地中海贫血诊疗的病例进行血常规血红蛋白(hemoglobin,Hb)、平均红细胞体积(mean corpuscular volume,MCV)、平均红细胞血红蛋白含量(mean corpuscular hemoglobin,MCH)、平均红细胞血红蛋白浓度(mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration,MCHC)的检测和Hb H分析,应用跨越断裂点聚合酶链式反应(gap-polymerase chain reaction,gap-PCR)、荧光PCR熔解曲线法(fluorescence-based PCR melting curve assay,FCMA)、DNA测序等进行地中海贫血基因分析。结果:217例非缺失型Hb H病患者中检出187例Hb Comstant Spring(Hb CS)(--SEACSα),27例Hb Quong Sze(Hb QS)(--SEAQSα),及3例罕见基因突变的Hb H病,包括--SEAATG>GTGα,--SEACD90-92(-AGCTTCGG)α和--SEACD30(-GAG)α各1例,病例均未合并β-地中海贫血。血常规结果显示,Hb H-CS组轻度、中度和重度贫血分别占22.99%、64.71%、12.30%;Hb H-QS组轻度、中度和重度贫血分别占44.45%、51.85%、3.70%。基因型--SEAATG>GTGα Hb 107.30 g/L、--SEACD90-92(-AGCTTCGG)α Hb 88.40/L、--SEACD30(-GAG)α Hb 73.70 g/L,均伴MCV、MCH降低。血红蛋白分析结果显示,Hb H-CS组HbH 13.60%(10.45%~15.90%),Hb H-QS组Hb H 23.20%(17.30%~25.00%),二者比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。--SEAATG>GTGα、--SEACD90-92(-AGCTTCGG)α及--SEACD30(-GAG)α的Hb H水平分别为25.30%、24.40%、20.40%。结论:非缺失型Hb H病基因型以--SEACSα为主,--SEAQSα次之。非缺失型Hb H病临床表现中度贫血为主。Hb H-QS组Hb H水平高于Hb H-CS组。发现--SEAATG>GTGα、--SEACD90-92(-AGCTTCGG)α和--SEACD30(-GAG)α3例HbH病,临床表现为轻至中度贫血。

     

    Abstract: Objective: To analyze the mutation types of non-deletional hemoglobin H(Hb H) disease,explore the correlation between distinct genotypes and clinical phenotypes,and identify rare α-globin gene mutations,so as to provide evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment,genetic counseling,and prenatal diagnosis. Methods: Routine blood testshemoglobin(Hb),mean corpuscular volume(MCV),mean corpuscular hemoglobin(MCH),mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration(MCHC) and Hb H analysis were performed on patients diagnosed and treated for α-thalassemia at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from January 2024 to January 2026.Gap-polymerase chain reaction(gap-PCR),fluorescence-based PCR melting curve assay(FCMA)and DNA sequencing were used for genetic analysis of thalassemia. Results: Among 217 patients with nondeletional Hb H disease,187 patients were identified as Hb H-CS(--SEACSα) and 27 patients as Hb H-QS( --SEAQSα),and 3 patients carried rare gene mutations causing Hb H disease,including one case each of --SEAATG>GTGα, --SEACD90-92(-AGCTTCGG)α and --SEACD30(-GAG)α.None of the patients were complicated with β-thalassemia.The results of routine blood tests showed that mild,moderate and severe anemia in the Hb H-CS group accounted for 22.99%,64.71% and 12.30%,respectively;the corresponding proportions of mild,moderate and severe anemia in the Hb H-QS group accounted for 44.45%,51.85% and 3.70%,respectively.The Hb levels were 107.30 g/L for the --SEAATG>GTGα genotype,88.40 g/L for the --SEACD90-92(-AGCTTCGG)α genotype,and 73.70 g/L for the --SEACD30(-GAG)αgenotype,all accompanied by decreased MCV and MCH.Hb analysis revealed that the Hb H level was 13.60%(10.45%-15.90%) in the Hb H-CS group and 23.20%(17.30%-25.00%) in the Hb H-QS group,with a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P<0.05).The Hb H levels of the --SEAATG>GTGα, --SEACD90-92(-AGCTTCGG)α and --SEACD30(-GAG)α genotypes were 25.30%,24.40% and 20.40%,respectively. Conclusion: The predominant genotype of non-deletional Hb H disease is --SEACSα,followed by --SEAQSα.Moderate anemia is the main clinical manifestation of non-deletional Hb H disease.The Hb H level in the Hb H-QS group is higher than that in the Hb H-CS group.Three cases of Hb H disease with genotypes of --SEAATG>GTGα, --SEACD90-92(-AGCTTCGG)αand --SEACD30(-GAG)α are identified,presenting with mild to moderate anemia.
