a comparison of a control and a mutant condition (Th3) of the Hemoglobin Beta major and minor chain, used as Beta Thalassemia mouse model. 4 controls and 4 mutants
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Delta-Beta thalassemia is an unusual variant of thalassemia caused by large deletions in the β globin gene cluster involving δ- and β-globin genes. The mutations are characterized by high fetal hemoglobin with significant phenotypic diversity. Routinely used diagnostic tests targeting point mutation...

β-thalassemia major can be caused by homozygous mutations of the HBB gene, most of the cases are inherited from parents who both have β-thalassemia minor. Herein, we show that a mosaic paternal uniparental isodisomy of chromosome 11p14.3-15.5 is associated with β-thalassemia major in a patient wi...

Beta-thalassemia is a genetic disease caused by a defect in the production of the beta-like globin chain. More than 200 known different variants can lead to the disease and are mainly found in populations that have been exposed to malaria parasites. We recently described a duplication of 4 nucleotid...
The advent of human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells enables for the first time the derivation of unlimited numbers of patient-specific stem cells and holds great promise for regenerative medicine. However, realizing the full potential of iPS cells requires robust, precise and safe strategies fo...

Fetal and neonatal beta cells have poor glucose-induced insulin secretion and only gain robust glucose responsiveness several weeks after birth. This unresponsiveness may be due to a generalized immaturity of the metabolic pathways normally found in beta cells. Gene expression profile of neonatal (1...

Alternative splicing (AS) is a fundamental mechanism for the regulation of gene expression. It affects more than 90% of human genes but its role in the regulation of pancreatic beta cells, the producers of insulin, remains unknown. Our recently published data indicated that the M-bM-^@M-^\neuron spe...
