Immune Imbalance in Sickle Cell Anemia: Flow Cytometric Insights Into Regulatory T Cells and Neutrophil Dynamics

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Flow cytometric analysis in sickle cell anemia reveals preserved Treg frequency despite decreased CD25 expression and increased neutrophil activity, highlighting a complex immune imbalance. The proportions of both neutrophil and lymphocyte cells have been shown to be a reliable predictor of CD3+ T cell levels, thus emphasizing the importance of innate ...
