G gamma, A gamma and beta globin chain synthesis has been investigated in the peripheral blood and bone marrow from eight beta-thalassaemia homozygotes. In five out of eight cases total gamma chain synthesis was higher in the peripheral blood than in the bone marrow; in seven out of eight cases A gamma chain synthesis was markedly higher in the marrow than in the peripheral blood. These data suggest that ineffective erythropoiesis selects F-cells synthesizing the largest amounts of G gamma chains, while A gamma producing cells are preferentially destroyed in the marrow.

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.
