Unique Polymorphisms at BCL11A, HBS1L-MYB and HBB Loci Associated with HbF in Kuwaiti Patients with Sickle Cell Disease
Patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) in Kuwait have elevated HbF levels ranging from ~10–44%; however, the modulating factors are unclear. We investigated the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at BCL11A, HBS1L-MYB and HBB with HbF levels in 237 Kuwaiti SCD patients, divided in...
