Allo-geneic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT) cure thalassemia major by destroying the original hematopoietic and immune systems with a large dose of chemotherapy, rebuilding a new system to correct the abnormal hematopoietic globin chain synthesis which leads to hemolysis. Currently, it is the only curative means. According to donors, allo-HSCT could be ...
