Globin chain synthesis was performed with the peripheral blood of a 10‐year‐old girl, who had acquired aplastic anaemia, at the time of bolus methylprednisolone administration and during recovery. There was no indication of an increase in γ chain synthesis despite elevation of total foetal haemoglobin.
