Mechanisms of Erythropoietic Failure in Shwachman Diamond Syndrome Caused by Loss of the Ribosome-related Protein, SBDS
Anemia occurs in 60% of patients with Shwachman Diamond Syndrome (SDS). Although bi-allelic mutations in SBDS cause SDS, it is unclear whether SBDS is critical for erythropoiesis and what the pathogenesis of anemia is in SDS. I hypothesize that SBDS protects early erythroid progenitors from p53 fam...
