Although there is no known cure for the thalassemias, there are medical treatments that have been developed based on our current understanding of both gene regulation and cell differentiation.
Today we know that a single gene consists of a unique sequence of DNA that provides the complete instructions to make a functional product, called a protein.
There are alpha and beta thalassemias, defined by the defective gene, and there are variations of each of these, depending on whether the embryonic, fetal, or adult forms are affected and/or expressed.
