  • Title: Haemoglobin LeporeBoston in a Turkish family.
    Author: Cavdar AO, Arcasoy A.
    Journal: J Med Genet; 1976 Oct; 13(5):363-5. PubMed ID: 1003447.
    Abstract:
    Haemoglobin Lepore was demonstrated in four members of a Turkish family. It was found in the heterozygote state and was associated with erythrocyte morphology similar to that observed in the beta thalassaemia trait. The average concentration of haemoglobin Lepore was 8.1% of the total haemoglobin. Structural analysis showed that the Lepore haemoglobin was the LeporeBoston type. This is the first reported instance of the occurrence of haemoglobin Lepore in Turkey.
