" /> Anemia, sideroblastic, 1 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Anemia, sideroblastic, 1;

Symbol : SIDBA1;

CISMeF acronym : ANH1; SIDBA1; XLSA;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Anemia, hereditary sideroblastic; Anemia, hypochromic; ANH1; Anemia, sideroblastic, X-linked; XLSA; Hereditary iron-loading anemia;

Description : The essential features of X-linked sideroblastic anemia include the following: (1) a hypochromic microcytic anemia and 2 discrete populations of red blood cells, one microcytic and the other normocytic; (2) marrow ringed sideroblasts, particularly prominent in the late erythroid precursors; (3) a variable hematologic response to pharmacologic doses of pyridoxine; and (4) systemic iron overload secondary to chronic ineffective erythropoiesis. The age of clinical onset of the disorder can vary from in utero to the ninth decade. Whereas males are preferentially affected, females may present with clinically severe anemia. More commonly, female carriers of the disease have an increased red blood cell distribution width and sometimes erythrocyte dimorphism (Fleming, 2002).;

Inheritance : X-linked recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the delta-aminolevulinate synthase 2 gene (ALAS2, 301300.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Low hemoglobin;
