| | Cases of hereditary, acquired and idiopathic anemia have responded to pyridoxine therapy. | | | Myelodysplasic syndromes (MDS) are generally observed in the early pre-leukemic stages of disease. | | | Leukemia such as acute granulocytic leukemia can develop as a result of acquired sideroblastic anemia. |

| Â | classifications |
| | Classifications for both MDS and sideroblastic anemias are not definitive, as is clear from the overlap in discussing the two conditions. | | | CMML is associated with anemia, a high percent of blasts, and a high level of monocytes in the blood and bone marrow. | | | Acquired irreversible sideroblastic anemias may result from MDS, leukemias, or from myeloproliferative disorders. |

| | Acquired sideroblastic anemia is often the earliest evidence of a myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) - refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts. | | | Blood transfusions may be necessary because of the ineffective erythropoiesis of sideroblastic anemia. | | | Hereditary sideroblastic anemia often responds to pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) therapy, but the acquired form rarely responds. |

| | In a study of 20 patients with sideroblastic anemia, three patients showed low ALAS activity that was corrected to normal by PLP in vitro, and two other patients were found to be responsive to pyridoxine (20 mg/day). | | | This defect could also be in ALAS1 or ALAS2. | | | When one of these 2 patients was taken off pyridoxine, ALAS activity, as measured in bone marrow, fell markedly unless PLP was added in vitro. |
