- W2290729516 abstract "Abstract Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a recessively inherited hemolytic anemia characterized by severe poikilocytosis and red blood cell fragmentation. HPP red blood cells are partially deficient in spectrin and contain a mutant alpha or beta-spectrin that is defective in terms of spectrin self-association. Although the nature of the latter defect has been studied in considerable detail and many mutations of alpha-spectrin and beta spectrin have been identified, the molecular basis of spectrin deficiency is unknown. Here we report two mechanisms underlying spectrin deficiency in HPP. The first mechanism involves a thalassemia-like defect characterized by a reduced synthesis of alpha-spectrin as shown by studies involving synthesis of spectrin in two unrelated HPP probands and their parents: One parent carries the elliptocytogenic spectrin mutation, whereas the other parent is fully asymptomatic. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells as a source of erythroid burst-forming unit (BFUe) were cultured in a two-phase liquid culture system that gives rise to terminally differentiated erythroblasts. Pulse-labeling studies of an equal number of erythroblasts or morphologically identical maturity showed that the synthesis of alpha-spectrin as well as the mRNA levels as measured by the competitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method are markedly reduced in the presumed asymptomatic carriers and the HPP probands. In contrast, the synthesis and mRNA levels of beta-spectrin were normal. These results constitute a direct demonstration of an alpha-spectrin synthetic defect in a subset of asymptomatic carriers of HPP and HPP probands. The second mechanism underlying spectrin deficiency involves increased degradation of mutant spectrin before its assembly on the membrane. This is evidenced by pulse labeling studies of erythroblasts from a patient with HPP associated with a homozygous state for spectrin alpha I/46 mutation (leu-pro mutation at AA 207 of alpha-spectrin). These studies showed that although spectrin is synthesized in the cytosol in normal amounts, the rate of turnover of alpha-spectrin is faster resulting in about 40% to 50% reduced assembly of alpha-spectrin and beta-spectrin on the membrane. Thus, spectrin deficiency in this case is at least in part caused by increased susceptibility of the mutant spectrin to degradation before its assembly on the membrane. We conclude that at least two separate mechanisms underlie the molecular basis of spectrin deficiency in HPP." @default.
