Reduced Hb A2 | Increased Hb A2 | ||
Condition | Comments | Condition | Comments |
Alpha thalassemia | Reduction correlates with severity of thalassemia | Beta thalassemia | Typical level 4 to 6%; rarely up to 10% with 5' HBB gene deletions |
Alpha globin gene variants | Hybrid Hb A2 might not separate | Sickle cell disease-alpha thalassemia | Typical level 4 to 5%; due to a posttranslational effect |
Delta globin gene variants | Variant can be poorly expressed | Sickle cell trait | Artifact of some HPLC systems |
Delta-beta thalassemia | Half normal in heterozygotes | Sickle cell disease | Artifact of some HPLC systems |
Delta thalassemia | Usually approximately half normal | Unstable hemoglobins | |
Gene deletional HPFH | Half normal in heterozygotes | KLF1 gene mutations | Lower than in beta thalassemia |
Hb Lepore | Half normal in heterozygotes | Hereditary spherocytosis | Not uniformly elevated |
Sideroblastic anemia | Due to impaired alpha globin synthesis | Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia, type 1 | Lower than in beta thalassemia |
Iron deficiency | Reduction correlates with severity of iron deficiency | Megaloblastic anemia | Modest increases |
Acute myeloid leukemia | Minor reduction | Hyperthyroidism | Lower than in beta thalassemia |
Myelodysplastic syndrome | Only reduced in a minority of cases | Zidovudine treatment for HIV infection | Lower than in beta thalassemia |
Juvenile chronic granulocytic leukemia | Only reduced in a minority of cases with increased Hb F |
