Abstract
INTRODUCTION The life expectancy of β-thalassemia patients has increased over the last 20 years. In this study, we evaluated the current health status and quality of life of these patients managed in a reference center in Marseille. METHODS This is a single-center, descriptive study conducted between June and August 2019 in patients over 18 years of age with β-thalassemia major or intermedia. Clinical and paraclinical data were collected retrospectively and the SF-36 health survey questionnaire was proposed to each patient. RESULTS 43 of 64 selected patients were included and divided into 2 groups: 35 patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia and 8 patients with non-transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia. Liver iron overload is the most frequent complication, present in 80% of transfusion-dependent and 62.5% of non-transfusion-dependent patients. Cardiac iron overload is present only in the transfusion dependent β-thalassemia group (20%). Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism remains the most common endocrine disorder (41.9%) followed by osteoporosis (37.2%). Among the 31 patients who completed the SF-36 questionnaire, physical and mental quality of life scores were lowered in transfusion dependent (respectively 42.7 and 46.8) as in non-transfusion-dependent patients (respectively 43.8 and 28.9). CONCLUSION Despite an improvement in medical care, our patients with β-thalassemia show an alteration in their quality of life that will need to be characterized in the entire French cohort.

Abstract
The K+ channel activated by the Ca2+, KCNN4, has been shown to contribute to red blood cell dehydration in the rare hereditary hemolytic anemia, the dehydrated hereditary stomatocytosis. We report two de novo mutations on KCNN4, We reported two de novo mutations on KCNN4, V222L and H340N, characterized at the molecular, cellular and clinical levels. Whereas both mutations were shown to increase the calcium sensitivity of the K+ channel, leading to channel opening for lower calcium concentrations compared to WT KCNN4 channel, there was no obvious red blood cell dehydration in patients carrying one or the other mutation. The clinical phenotype was greatly different between carriers of the mutated gene ranging from severe anemia for one patient to a single episode of anemia for the other patient or no documented sign of anemia for the parents who also carried the mutation. These data compared to already published KCNN4 mutations question the role of KCNN4 gain-of-function mutations in hydration status and viability of red blood cells in bloodstream.

Abstract
Dunnigan syndrome, or Familial Partial Lipodystrophy type 2 (FPLD2; ORPHA 2348), is a rare autosomal dominant disorder due to pathogenic variants of the LMNA gene. The objective of the French National Diagnosis and Care Protocol (PNDS; Protocole National de Diagnostic et de Soins), is to provide health professionals with a guide to optimal management and care of patients with FPLD2, based on a critical literature review and multidisciplinary expert consensus. The PNDS, written by members of the French National Reference Center for Rare Diseases of Insulin Secretion and Insulin Sensitivity (PRISIS), is available on the French Health Authority website (in French). Dunnigan syndrome is characterized by a partial atrophy of the subcutaneous adipose tissue and by an insulin resistance syndrome, associated with a risk of metabolic, cardiovascular and muscular complications. Its prevalence, assessed at 1/100.000 in Europe, is probably considerably underestimated. Thorough clinical examination is key to diagnosis. Biochemical testing frequently shows hyperinsulinemia, abnormal glucose tolerance and hypertriglyceridemia. Elevated hepatic transaminases (hepatic steatosis) and creatine phosphokinase, and hyperandrogenism in women, are common. Molecular analysis of the LMNA gene confirms diagnosis and allows for family investigations. Regular screening and multidisciplinary monitoring of the associated complications are necessary. Diabetes frequently develops from puberty onwards. Hypertriglyceridemia may lead to acute pancreatitis. Early atherosclerosis and cardiomyopathy should be monitored. In women, polycystic ovary syndrome is common. Overall, the management of patients with Dunnigan syndrome requires the collaboration of several health care providers. The attending physician, in conjunction with the national care network, will ensure that the patient receives optimal care through regular follow-up and screening. The various elements of this PNDS are described to provide such a support.

Abstract
NISCH syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disease. It is characterized by scalp hypotrichosis, scarring alopecia, ichthyosis, and neonatal sclerosing cholangitis. It is caused by mutations in the CLDN1 gene encoding the claudin-1 protein, which is located at tight junctions. Fifteen cases have been reported to date and three different mutations have been identified. We report on the case of a 2-year-old boy from a consanguineous Moroccan family, presenting with NISCH syndrome and carrying the so-called Moroccan homozygous mutation (c.200-201delTT). The patient presented with the characteristic symptoms of the syndrome and a favorable progression with normalization of hepatic analyses under symptomatic treatment (vitamin supplementation and ursodeoxycholic acid). The currently limited availability of clinical and therapeutic data does not allow accurate prediction of the course of the disease and short- and long-term prognosis. Moreover, substantial interindividual variability has been reported. Description of new cases will provide new insights into the understanding and the overall management of this syndrome, the course of which remains elusive.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rett syndrome (RTT), an X-linked, dominant, neurodevelopment disorder represents 10% of female subjects with profound intellectual disability. Mutations in the MECP2 gene are responsible for up to 95% of the classical RTT cases, and nearly 500 different mutations distributed throughout the gene have been reported. METHODS We report here the molecular study of two isoforms, MECP2_e1 and MECP2_e2, in 45 Lebanese girls presenting developmental delay and at least one of the following features: microcephaly, neurodegeneration, abnormal behaviour, stereotypical hand movements, teeth grinding and difficulty in walking. Mutation screening was performed by denaturating high-performance liquid chromatography combined with direct sequencing. RESULTS Sixteen variants were noted, of which 14 have been previously reported: five suspected polymorphisms and nine mutations. Two variants were novel mutations in exon 4: c.1093_1095delGAG (p.E365del) and c.1164_1184delACCTCCACCTGAGCCCGAGAGinsCTGAGCCCCAGGACTTGAGCA (p.P388PfsX389). The deletion was found in an 8-year-old girl with typical clinical features of RTT. The indel was found in a 6-year-old girl with a very mild phenotype. CONCLUSION Genotype/phenotype correlation is discussed and the importance of a molecular study of MECP2 gene in patients with very mild features or a regression after the age of 2 is raised.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Screening for sickle cell disease, the most common of recessive autosomic hemoglobin disorders, allows detection of sickle cell disease SCD (homozygous sickle cell disease, compound heterozygote SC, and S β-thalassemia) in a target population. Our objective was to evaluate its effectiveness at the Nice University Hospital. POPULATION AND METHODS This prospective study was conducted between 1 January 2000 and 31 December 2008. The national targeted newborn screening, run together with the Guthrie test on the 3rd day of life, offered at-risk newborns (based on ethnicity and family history), allow the detection of qualitative hemoglobin abnormalities. A confirmatory test is performed when positive. Gender, ethnicity, type of hemoglobin found, zygosity, age at diagnosis, the presence at a 2nd consultation of the families identified, and acceptance of the confirmatory test were collected and analyzed. RESULTS A total of 19,775 children were born in Nice University Hospital during this period, among whom screening detected 151 hemoglobinopathies: 139 heterozygotes and 12 major sickle cell syndrome (9 SS and 3 S β-thalassemia). The prevalence of SCD on the targeted and the total population was, respectively, 1 out of 659 and 1 out of 1648 and the prevalence of heterozygotes was 1 out of 57 and 1 out of 142. The sex ratio was close to 1. Hemoglobin S predominated (74% of pathogens Hb). The Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa were the 2 main areas of origin. One hundred and four of 151 families, including 12 cases of SCD, returned to consultation after they received a letter requesting attendance at a 2nd consultation. For 80 children, the confirmatory test was accepted. Feedback was possible for 72 of the 80 families. DISCUSSION The number of children screened is increasing, thanks to better awareness among medical staff. The prevalence of SCD and heterozygotes found in Nice University Hospital is similar to what is described in the literature. With screening, early diagnosis allows early treatment at the age of 2 months before the occurrence of complications, reducing morbidity and mortality. CONCLUSION Screening for sickle cell disease appears effective in Nice. It seems necessary to continue focusing on the importance of screening among maternity healthcare actors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As a result of population growth in African-Caribbean regions of overseas France, and now immigration essentially from North and sub-Saharan Africa to mainland France, neonatal screening for sickle cell disease (SCD) has been performed in France since 1985 in Guadalupe and dependencies, as a universal test. After several pilot studies, screening was gradually extended to mainland France in 1996. Since 2000, the test has been performed at national level for all newborns defined as being "at risk" for SCD based on ethnic origin. METHODS A dry blood sample is obtained by heel stick and analysed by isoelectric focusing as a first-line method, followed by either high-performance liquid chromatography or acid agar electrophoresis for confirmation, whenever a variant haemoglobin is observed on isoelectric focusing. RESULTS In 2007, 28.45% of all newborns in mainland France were screened for SCD. Since 1996, a total of 3,890 newborns have been found to have SCD, and they have been followed up by reference paediatricians. CONCLUSION Although screening for SCD at birth in France is not universal, it appears that missed babies are relatively infrequent. Despite obvious sociological problems inherent to the at-risk population, the follow-up of SCD babies is rather successful. Due to the birth prevalence of SCD in France, especially in comparison with other common genetic diseases, screening all newborns regardless of ethnic origin is an issue that is being addressed.

Abstract
We report the case of a 30 years old patient of Algerian origin, presenting a beta-thalassemia major with a phenotype of intermediate severity. Its genotype is beta(o)/beta(o), leading to a complete absence of beta-globin synthesis. This genotype is usually responsible for major clinical complications and a severe anaemia requiring regular transfusions. However, the patient presents with a mild form of the disease and a moderate relatively well tolerated anaemia. This phenotype was found related to a high level of synthesis of foetal haemoglobin, dependent most probably on an homozygous state for the polymorphism (XmnI -158, C>T) in the promoter of the Ggamma gene. This observation shows that it is important to keep in mind that beta-thalassemia major may have a mild or intermediate phenotype because of polymorphisms of the beta locus.

Abstract
Mutations in ATRX are associated with a wide and clinically heterogeneous spectrum of X-linked mental retardation syndromes. The ATRX protein, involved in chromatin remodelling, belongs to the family of SWI/SNF DNA helicases and contains a plant homeodomain (PHD)-like domain. To date, more than 60 different mutations have been reported in ATRX. One of them is recurrent and accounts for 20% of all the reported mutations, whereas all others are private. Most mutations are clustered in the two major functional domains, the helicase and the PHD-like domain. So far, no clear genotype-phenotype correlation has been established, with exception to the rare truncating mutations located at the C-terminal part of the protein, which are consistently associated with severe urogenital defects. In this study, we report the molecular analysis performed in 16 families positive for ATRX. Our findings indicate that, in addition to the previously described mutation 'hotspot' in the PHD-like domain, two other protein sections emerge as minor 'hotspots' in the helicase region encoded by exons 18-20 and 26-29, respectively, gathering 33% of all described mutations. Additionally, based on the clinical data collected for 22 patients from the 16 families, we observe that mutations in the PHD-like domain produce severe and permanent psychomotor deficiency, usually preventing patients from walking, as well as constant urogenital abnormalities, while mutations in the helicase domain lead to delayed but correct psychomotor acquisitions together with mild or absent urogenital abnormalities. In summary, mutations in the helicase domain are associated with milder phenotypes than mutations in the PHD-like domain.

Abstract
The dual purpose of this study was to determine the genotype of patients with oculocutaneous albinism type 1 and 2 based on analysis of tyrosinase and P gene mutations and to attempt to establish a correlation between phenotype and genotype. This study included a total of 21 Caucasian, Indian and Black African patients from La Reunion, la Martinique, French Guyana and Mayotte. PCR-sequencing of genomic DNA was performed to detect tyrosinase gene mutations and PCR-separation of PCR products by agarose gel electrophoresis was performed to detect 2.7kb deletion allele of the P gene. Tyrosinase gene mutations were identified in two cases, i.e., on eheterozygous guanine "g" deletion (c.572 delG) with a frameshift (Gly191fs) resulting in apremature termination signal at codon 225 in a Caucasian patient from La Reunion and one homozygous missense mutation, Glycine419Arginine, in an Indian patient from La Reunion. The 2.7-kb deletion allele of the P gene was detected in three Black African patients, i.e. two in the homozygous state in siblings from Mayotte and one in the heterozygous state in a girl from la Martinique. The latter patient whose mother was from la Martinique inherited the mutation from her father who was from Cameroon. This study shows that characterization of tyrosinase and P gene mutations in albinos patients is crucial to (a) differentiate subjects with oculocutaneous albinism types 1 and 2 and establish a correlation between phenotype and genotype, (b) identify healthy heterozygous carriers among the patient's immediate family (parents and siblings) and (c) allow prenatal diagnosis during subsequent pregnancies in couples who have already engendered albino children with severe visual phenotype and documented mutation(s).

Abstract
The alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome, X linked, also named ATR-X syndrome is a X-linked mental retardation syndrome. Mutations have been found in the ATRX gene in about one half of the patients. We report a typical clinical case. The clinical evidence leads us to continue the analysis of the gene despite a negative first screening. Indeed a new mutation was found, just behind the helicase domain, bringing up the interest of an effective collaboration between physicians and biologists.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Update the data collected in 1990 in order to assess the distribution and management of thalassemic patients presently living in Metropolitan France. METHODS A survey conducted in France in the clinical and biological departments of haematology permitted collection of epidemiological, clinical and biological data in a population of thalassemic patients followed-up in metropolitan France. RESULTS Analysis of the replies revealed a total of 362 thalassemia with 249 beta-thalassemia major, 81 beta-thalassemia intermedia and 32 E-beta thalassemia. These patients predominated in the East of France and in the large cities. The total number of patients has remained stable over the last decade and new cases are decreasing. Among the 249 patients presenting with a ss-thalassemia major, 42 had received a bone marrow graft, whereas 207 were systematically transfused and 189 regularly underwent iron chelating. COMMENTS Management is standardised and efficient but could be improved on with regard to iron chelating therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the impact of a screening programme for haemoglobinopathies which was organised from 1978 to 1985 in high secondary schools of the Marseille region. METHODS Several variables that reflected the influence of this preventive programme on the uptake of prenatal diagnosis were investigated. To evaluate the partner's uptake for the testing, a letter was sent, together with an anonymous questionnaire, to all the haemoglobin carriers detected in this programme. To evaluate the number of prenatal diagnoses, the charts of all couples from the Marseille area who underwent genetic counselling for haemoglobinopathies were compiled. The number of affected children born between 1980 to 2000 was recorded, and the cases in which one of the parents had previously been screened at school were noted. RESULTS Half of the carriers replied to the questionnaire: 86% knew that they have to test their partner. Six carrier couples were identified, four asked for genetic counselling and requested eight prenatal diagnoses, two couples did not request genetic counselling and have had two affected children. CONCLUSIONS Despite the time lapse between screening, informing, and pregnancy (mean 15 years), the information was well conserved and resulted in testing of the partner. The screening programme was effective in motivating requests for prenatal diagnosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Comoro archipelago is characterised by a high prevalence of red cell genetic disorders such as G6PD deficiency and haemoglobinopathies, being a region endemic for malaria. Over the last 15 years, the city of Marseilles in France has become the main destination for Comorian immigrants. This Comorian community includes patients with sickle cell disease, sickle cell/beta-thalassaemia trait, thalassaemias and G6PD deficiency. MATERIALS AND METHODS Allele frequencies for haemoglobin S, beta-thalassaemia and G6PD deficiency were determined from neonatal and prenatal screenings of the Comorian community. Haemoglobin fractions were detected by isoelectrofocalisation, and the quantitation of HbS, HbA, HbA(2) and HbF was performed by cation exchange high performance liquid chromatography. The molecular study involved 31 alleles carrying the betaS mutation (Cd 6 [A-->T]), six beta-thalassaemic alleles and 17 G6PD-deficient alleles, selected from a group of carriers or affected subjects. RESULTS Allele frequencies were 3% for haemoglobin S, 1% for beta-thalassaemia trait and 9.5% for G6PD deficiency. Molecular analysis had revealed that the African alleles are predominant, being present in almost all the subjects studied. Mediterranean alleles were found for all the beta-thalassaemia mutations and for three G6PD chromosomes out of 17. CONCLUSION These data are consistent with the mixed Arab and African origin of the population of the Comoro Islands, and are of clinical interest in prenatal and newborn screening plans.

We report an undescribed mechanism leading to this condition: a somatic deletion of the beta-globin gene in the haemopoietic lineage of a heterozygous beta-thalassaemic patient. We did molecular studies and haemoglobin analysis of the patient and his parents. We found that the deletion gives rise to a mosaic of cells with either one or no functional beta-globin gene and it extends to a region of frequent loss of heterozygosity called LOH11A, which is located close to the beta-globin locus. Thus, loss of heterozygosity can be a cause of non-malignant genetic disease.

Abstract
Although hemoglobinopathies are primarily found in Africa, India, SouthEast Asia and the Mediterranean area, their distribution is becoming worldwide due to increased migration. Unlike other genetic diseases, carriers can be detected by simple and cost-effective means. Prenatal hemoglobinopathy screening is possible and direct prenatal diagnosis can be offered to couples at risk of giving birth to a child affected by a major defect of the beta-globin chain. Several hemoglobinopathy screening programmes have been organised in various countries of Northern Europe and have been effective in identifying couples at risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Since 1986, quantification of G6PD activity has been a routine test for all babies born at the public maternity hospitals of Marseilles. The objective of our study was to determine the prevalence of G6PD deficiency in the population tested and to evaluate the relative risk of neonatal jaundice in newborns with G6PD deficiency. METHODS Neonatal screening is performed on cord blood by spectrophotometric measurements of G6PD activity. A group of 7779 newborns was studied retrospectively. The occurrence of neonatal jaundice was evaluated in 85 children with G6PD deficiency and compared to 85 children with normal G6PD activity. RESULTS The incidence of G6PD deficiency in male newborns was found to be 2.1%. The relative risk for neonatal jaundice in the G6PD deficient population compared to the non-deficient population is estimated to be 2.6. CONCLUSION Neonatal jaundice with pathological hyperbilirubinemia develops more frequently in cases of G6PD deficiency. The early characterization of G6PD activity provides an etiological diagnosis for neonatal jaundice, as well as the opportunity to give the newborn's family information concerning hemolytic crisis prevention.

Abstract
We report two new substitutions, IVS-I-108 (T-->C) and -27 (A-->T), identified in a couple at risk for beta-thalassemia. One is of Iranian origin and presents with two mutations: a new substitution of T-->C at nucleotide IVS-I-108, which is a silent polymorphism, and a previously described beta-thalassemia mutation at nucleotide -28 (A-->C). The other is from the island of Corsica, the only place in France where beta-thalassemia is endemic. He presents a new substitution of A-->T at nucleotide -27 in the TATA box, which was also found in several members of his family with the beta-thalassemia trait. The fetus was found to have inherited both these novel mutations.

Abstract
The presence of Hb Hope associated with Hb S may represent a pitfall (false positive) in the neonatal detection of sickle cell disease by two of the most widely used analytical methods in screening programmes-isoelectric focusing (IEF) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). This example illustrates the need to improve analytical strategies to avoid unnecessary anxiety and summoning of families often from a cultural background in which testing of the father is difficult to obtain. It is suggested that using two independent HPLC procedures might improve the specificity of the screening strategies. Additionally, simple procedures for detection of the most common mutations of the beta globin gene of DNA extracted from dried blood specimens could be easily developed for the control of abnormal samples. These procedures could be introduced into the analytical strategy.

Abstract
Functional studies of partially purified hemoglobin (Hb) Bruxelles, Phebeta42 (CD1) --> 0 indicate a major shift in the allosteric equilibrium toward the deoxy (T state) conformation. While Hb A shows a roughly symmetrical oxygenation curve with maximum cooperativity near half-saturation, Hb Bruxelles shows mainly properties of the low affinity (T state) form. The oxygen equilibrium curves for purified (>80%) Hb Bruxelles show little cooperativity and a P50 (without 2,3-diphosphoglycerate) about twice that of Hb A. The low cooperativity for Hb Bruxelles is partially compensated by an increase in oxygen affinity of the deoxy conformation and a lower 2,3-diphosphoglycerate effect. The beta chains of normal Hb have consecutive phenylalanine residues at positions 41 and 42. DNA sequencing studies of Hb Bruxelles showed a deletion of the codon TTT, which corresponds to residue Phe42. The CO rebinding kinetics after flash photolysis show mainly the slow phase, characteristic of CO binding to the deoxy conformation. In phosphate buffer at pH 7, the slow phase dominates even at low photolysis levels, where the main reaction is ligand binding to the triply liganded form. This indicates a switchover point, from the deoxy to oxy conformation, occurring beyond three ligands for Hb Bruxelles. There are few natural mutants that show a change in the oxygen affinity and cooperativity as large as that observed for Hb Bruxelles.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diseases due to inherited hemoglobin disorders represent serious medical, social, and economic problems in the region of Marseille. The only effective treatment for such diseases is allogenic bone marrow transplantation. About 200 patients with either thalassemia, sickle cell or sickle cell-beta thalassemic diseases are regularly seen in local hospitals. All of these patients come from parts of the world where genetic hemoglobin disorders are endemic. METHODS At this time, the only approach for reducing the number of affected children born is preventive. This depends upon education, the detection of carriers, genetic counselling and sometimes, prenatal diagnosis. We have organised a program of prevention supported by a grant from the DISS (Direction des Interventions Sociales et Sanitaires) in the context of visits made to the PMI (Prevention Maternelle et Infantile). This initiative concerns women presenting for consultations for three reasons: for a prenuptial check-up, for a pregnancy, and for prescription of contraceptives. RESULTS In each of these three situations a check-up is obligatory and, for natives of countries where hemoglobin disorders are common, a hemoglobin test is recommended. If this test reveals an abnormality, the partner or husband is also tested, if he is willing. Couples who are both carriers are given genetic counselling. CONCLUSION This preventive initiative has yielded valuable results so we hope to follow-up on the approach and extend it to other centers. Such screening, based upon the geographic origins of patients, can be implemented in the course of a consultation by any doctor.

Abstract
We report a case of severe priapism occurring in a patient with an unstable hemoglobin, Hb Olmsted (beta 141 Leu-->Arg) This is a rare hemoglobin variant, which until now has been reported only once. The clinical course of the 12-year-old boy was characterized by severe hemolytic anemia leading to splenectomy and cholecystectomy at the of 3.5 years. The priapism occurred 8 years after splenectomy, during a hemolytic febrile episode and required aspiration of the corpora cavernosa. This report raises the question of the benefit of splenectomy in patients suffering from a chronic hemolytic anemia such as that due to an unstable hemoglobin. This treatment lowers the frequency and the severity of acute hemolytic attacks, but several cases of vascular complications have been reported after splenectomy.
