Mutation of SBDS and SH2D1A is not associated with aplastic anemia in Japanese children

Abstract

During the last decade, the genetic basis of inherited bone marrow failure syndromes has been identified. Recently, genetic factors predisposing to aplastic anemia (AA) have been found in a few patients with apparently acquired AA. Here we present the genetic analysis of SBDS and SH2D1A in Japanese children with AA.
