Hemolytic anemia due to erythrocyte adenosine deaminase overproduction(HAEADA)

MedGen UID:
400240
Concept ID:
C1863235
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: Adenosine deaminase, elevated, hemolytic anemia due to; ERYTHROCYTE ADA, ELEVATED, HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA DUE TO; HAEADA
Modes of inheritance:
Autosomal dominant inheritance
MedGen UID:
141047
Concept ID:
C0443147
Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele.

Definition

Hemolytic anemia due to elevated adenosine deaminase (HAEADA) is an X-linked hematologic disorder characterized by onset of mild to moderate red cell anemia soon after birth or in childhood. The anemia is associated with significantly increased activity of ADA (608958) specifically in erythrocyte precursors. ATP levels may be secondarily decreased. Additional features may include low birth weight, thrombocytopenia, hypospadias, and splenomegaly. Males are preferentially affected, although carrier females may show elevated erythrocyte ADA or mild features (Ludwig et al., 2022). [from OMIM]
