Simultaneous detection of G6PD mutations using SNPscan in a multiethnic minority area of Southwestern China

Abstract: Objectives: Baise, a multiethnic inhabited area of southwestern China, is a historical malaria-endemic area with a high prevalence of G6PD deficiency. However, few studies of G6PD deficiency have been conducted in this region. Therefore, we performed a genetic analysis of G6PD deficiency in the Baise population from January 2020 to June 2021.Methods: A SNPscan assay was developed to simultaneously detect 33 common Chinese G6PD mutations. 30 G6PD-deficient samples were used for the method’s validation. Then, a … Show more

“…Heterozygous c.519C>T mutation was detected in a subject presenting intermediate G6PD activity (8.14 U/gHb; 68.23% of the AMM). The c.519C>T is a rare mutation that has previously been reported in Chinese, Taiwanese, and Thai populations [34][35][36]. The mutation…”

“…In pediatrics, however, severe hemolysis hyperbilirubinemia and jaundice due to G6PD deficiency in newborns can lead to hearing deficits, behavior disorders, and long-lasting neurologic damage [14]. G6PD mutations are common among geographically defined populations, including those originating in the Mediterranean Basin and other parts of the Middle East [15], and some East Asian [16] and African populations. The metabolic changes linked to G6PD deficiency may result in an elevated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and an imbalance in the antioxidant system [11,17], setting off a molecular cascade resulting in impaired astrocyte function, neuron death [18], and damage to DNA.…”
