2 Outline Conditions associated with increased HbF (α2γ2) hereditary persistence of fetal haemoglobin (HPFH) Pancellular and heterocellular forms HbF persistence in adults as a quantitative trait Dissection of genetic architecture underlying variability of HbF persistence Plausible mechanisms for increased HbF expression Implications for β haemoglobin disorders
3 Hereditary Persistence of Fetal Haemoglobin ( HPFH ) genetically determined persistence of fetal haemoglobin production into adult life in the absence of any haematological disorder Pancellular or heterocellular, based on HbF distribution among erythrocytes

6 Mendelian forms of HPFH are rare and do not explain common HbF variation in healthy adults or in patients with sickle cell disease or β thalassaemia Underlying background of variable HbF persistence in adults Persistence of HbF production inherited as a quantitative trait (QT) Twin studies show that the trait is largely genetically controlled (heritability =0.89)

Genet 2007; Uda et al PNAS 2008; Lettre et al PNAS 2008; So C-C et al J. Med. Genet. 2008; Sedgewick et al Blood Cells Molecules 2008; Galanello et al Blood 2009;Nuinoon et al Hum Genet 2010)
14 Plausible mechanisms of HbF modulation: 1. BCL11A - Direct effect on γ globin gene expression inhibition of γ globin gene expression 2. HBS1L MYB intergenic region: Alteration of kinetics of erythroid maturation and differentiation, mimicking stress erythropoiesis with release of early erythroid progenitors that synthesise more HbF Challenge: 1. Delineate causal variant(s), physiological pathways involved in increased γ globin gene expression 2. Identify other QTLs to improve prediction of ability to produce HbF; and molecular network of different HbF-modifying loci
15 Conclusions and implications for therapy 1. Molecular basis for persistent HbF expression in adults extremely heterogeneous 2. Mendelian forms deletion HPFH or γ promoter mutations clearly identified genotypically and phenotypically. No unifying simple explanation for increased HbF in those caused by deletions 3. Common variation (heterocellular HPFH) contributed by several linked and unlinked loci, three major QTLs - XmnI-Gγ, HMIP on 6q23, and BCL11A account for 50% of F cell variance. Increased HbF appears to involve multiple pathways. 4. Current pharmacological induction involves multiple pathways, including acceleration of erythroid maturation and differentiation and offer proof-ofprinciple of mechanism underlying disease 5. Downregulating BCL11A expression for therapeutic reactivation of HbF is an attractive option 6. Elucidation of HbF genetics allows improved prediction of ability to produce HbF : prediction of disease severity, genetic counselling and PND.
