Discussion

Analysis uncovers biomarkers and cell subsets related to iron metabolism disorders in beta-thalassemia, suggesting new diagnostic approaches.

Potential biomarkers for diagnosing transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia were identified through bioinformatics and experiments.
Seventeen cell subsets were analyzed, revealing changes in immune and erythroid cell proportions in individuals with beta-thalassemia.
Quantitative analysis showed significant dysregulation in iron metabolism indicators like total iron levels in the liver of model mice.
This study highlights new insights into beta-thalassemia pathogenesis, pointing to potential therapeutic targets and improved diagnostics.

Wei et al. (2025) studied this question.
