genetic mutation that reduces hemoglobin synthesis
results from iron deficiency
blocks the release of iron from storage and thereby renders iron unavailable for red blood cell production
associated with shortened RBC life span
failure of stem cells to develop into RBCs
stimulates RBC production in bone marrow
genetic mutation that results in altered hemoglobin structure
immature RBC
