BACKGROUND: Anemia is defined as a lack of erythrocytes, low hemoglobin levels, or abnormal erythrocyte morphology. Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a rare and severe congenital hypoplastic anemia that occurs due to the dominant inheritance of a ribosomal protein gene mutation. Even rarer is a case described as Diamond-Blackfan anemia like (DBAL), which occurs due to a loss-of-function EPO mutation recessive inheritance. The effective cures for DBAL are bone marrow transfusion and treatment with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). To effectively manage the condition, construction of DBAL models to identify new medical methods or screen drugs are necessary.
RESULTS: Here, an epoa-deficient mutant zebrafish called epoaszy8 was generated to model DBAL. The epoa-deficiency in zebrafish caused developmental defects in erythroid cells, leading to severe congenital anemia. Using the DBAL model, we validated a loss-of-function EPO mutation using an in vivo functional analysis and explored the ability of ESAs to alleviate congenital anemia.
CONCLUSIONS: Together, our study demonstrated that epoa deficiency in zebrafish leads to a phenotype resembling DBAL. The DBAL zebrafish model was found to be beneficial for the in vivo assessment of patient-derived EPO variants with unclear implications and for devising potential therapeutic approaches for DBAL.
