Prenatal Detection Of Hb Bart'S Disease In Maternal Blood
RECENT ADVANCES IN PRENATAL GENETIC DIAGNOSIS(2004)
摘要
Fetal cells from maternal blood have been long sought after, for prenatal diagnosis of hereditary diseases. We investigated a non-invasive technique for early detection of Hemoglobin (Hb) Bart's disease caused by homozygous alpha (-(SEA)) deletion. Maternal peripheral blood smears from 9 affected pregnancies were studied with control blood smears and stained with fluorescence-labeled antibodies against alpha- and embryonic zeta-globin chains. Erythrocytes from control smears expressed a- globin. Fetal red blood cells, stained with anti-C but not with anti-alpha globin antibodies, were found in all affected pregnancies. Results showed that non-invasive immunofluorescence staining of maternal blood is a feasible approach for screening Hb Bart's disease.
