Hereditary sideroblastic anemia
- X-linked defect in delta-ALA synthase
- Tx with B6
-
Reversible etiologies of sideroblastic anemia
-
Hepcidin: what disease and why is it important?

- increases with inflammation and causes a decrease release of iron from macrophages
-
G6PD deficiency causes a decrease in
glutathione
-
HbC defect
Beta chain mutation but milder than sickle cell
-
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria pathogenesis
- Intravascular hemolysis due to complement-mediated lysis
- Impaired synthesis of GPI anchor/decay accelerating factor in RBC membrane
- Increase in urine hemosiderin
-

-
Acute intermittent porphyria accumulated substrate
- Porphobilinogen
- delta-ALA
- uroporphyrin (urine)
-
Porphyria cutanea tarda affected enzyme
Urophorphyrinogen decarboxylase
-
Porphyria cutanea tarda accumulated substrate
Uroporphyrin (tea-colored urine immediately)
-
Rate-limiting heme synth step: enzyme, cofactor, an deficiency
- delta-ALA synthase

Bernard-Soulier disease
Decreased Gp1b means less platelet-collagen (vWF) adhesion
-
Glanzmann's thrombasthenia
Less GpIIb/IIIa means defect in platelet-platelet aggregation
-
The antibody in ITP
anti-GpIIb/IIIa
-
Deficiency in TTP
- Def of ADAMTS 13 decreases vWF degredation
- Too much vWF increases platelet agg and thrombosis
-
TTP labs and symptoms
- schistocytes and high LDH
- Neuro, renal, fever, hemolytic anemia
-
von Willebrand's disease
less vWF means defective VIII protection and defective platelet-collagen adhesion
-
Factor V Leiden
Mutant factor V can't be degraded by protein C
-
Prothrombin gene mutation: where and what?
-
Protein C or S deficiency
Less inactivation of V and VIII means clotting
