Band 4.1a/4.1b ratios in density-fractionated RBCs of unsplenectomized and splenectomized patients with spectrin/ankyrin and band 3 deficiencies.
Results are shown for unsplenectomized and splenectomized family members. Spectrin/ankyrin deficiency: AZ15.1/AZ16.1 (closed diamonds); AZ17/AZ18 (closed triangles); HL1/HL2 (open diamonds); EG 5.2/EG 6.2 (closed rectangles); SE1/SE2 (closed circles); and from 2 unpaired patients who did (HE, open circles) and did not (AI 4, open triangles) undergo splenectomy. Band 3 deficiency: AZ1/AZ2 (open triangles); AZ3/AZ4 (gray diamonds); AZ5/AZ4 (AZ5, closed rectangles in fractions 2-4; AZ4, gray diamonds); AZ8/AZ9 (closed rectangles); WR1.1/WR2.1 (closed diamonds); WR4/WR5 (closed triangles); LR1/LR2 (open rectangles).
