1 We report in this paper that the DNA-binding drug mithramycin is a potent inducer of gamma-globin mRNA accumulation and fetal hemoglobin (HbF) production in erythroid cells from healthy human subjects and beta-thalassemia patients. Plicamycin hemoglobin subunit gamma 1 Homo sapiens
2 We demonstrated that mithramycin was able to up-regulate preferentially gamma-globin mRNA production and to increase HbF accumulation, the percentage of HbF-containing cells, and their HbF content. Plicamycin hemoglobin subunit gamma 1 Homo sapiens
