Abstract:in β-thalassemia, excessive α-globin chain impedes the normal development of red blood cells resulting in anemia. numerous mirnas, including mir-6747-3p, are aberrantly expressed in β-thalassemia major (β-TM), but there are no reports on the mechanism of mir-6747-3p in regulating red blood cell lineage development and fetal hemoglobin (HbF) expression. in the present study, rT-qPcr was utilized to confirm miR-6747-3p expression in patients with β-TM and the healthy controls. electrotransfection was employed to… Show more
