BACKGROUND/AIMS: Defects in the Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme enhance cellular oxidative damage, thus impairing erythrocytes and radically shortening their lifespan. We aimed to study programmed erythrocyte cell death in G6PD-deficient patients, describe the molecular genetics basis of G6PD and investigate phenotype-genotype correlations.
METHODS: We explored eryptosis using the annexin V-binding assay, taken as an indicator of PS exposure at the erythrocyte surface. We assessed reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, intracellular calcium concentrations and ceramide formation at the cell surface. Prior to and following treatments, cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Finally, we explored G6PD gene mutations through PCR-Sanger sequencing.
RESULTS: Before stimulation, PS-exposing erythrocytes were significantly higher in G6PD-deficient patients than in healthy volunteers. This was paralleled by a significant increase in reactive oxygen species production, suggesting that oxidative stress is the main trigger of PS exposure in G6PD-deficient erythrocytes. Five previously described mutations were detected in our patients. Two genotypes correlated with a significantly higher percentage of PS-exposing cells.
CONCLUSION: Our study uncovers a novel effect detected in G6PD-deficient erythrocytes which is cell membrane scrambling with PS translocation to the erythrocyte surface. Our findings shed a light on the mechanisms of premature erythrocyte clearance in G6PD deficiency.
