Haemoglobin C and S role in acquired immunity against Plasmodium falciparum malaria.
A recently proposed mechanism of protection for haemoglobin C (HbC; beta6Glu-->Lys) links an abnormal display of PfEMP1, an antigen involved in malaria pathogenesis, on the surface of HbC infected erythrocytes together with the observation of reduced ...

Impending anterior ischemic optic neuropathy with elements of retinal vein occlusion in a patient on interferon for polycythemia vera. [PDF]
We describe the course and likely pathophysiology of impending anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) and retinal vein occlusion in a 56-year-old man with polycythemia vera managed with interferon alpha for 2 years.

Phosphorylation in erythrocyte membranes from abnormally shaped cells [PDF]
Erythrocyte protein phosphorylation was examined in membrane preparations of 25 patients with hereditary spherocytosis (HS). Reduced phosphorylation in substrate polypeptides was observed in 22 HS erythrocyte membranes for both splenectomized and nonsplenectomized patients.

Erythrocyte volume distribution in normal and abnormal subjects [PDF]
Size-frequency distribution curves of erythrocytes were generated with the Coulter Counter in 73 normal subjects and patients. Mean corpuscular volume (MCV) determined by routine calculation and MCV determined by size-frequency distribution were similar in all normal subjects and in patients with a single population of erythrocytes.

Comorbidities in aging patients with sickle cell disease. [PDF]
Sickle cell disease (SCD) in general and sickle cell anemia in particular is a highly complex disorder both at the molecular and clinical levels. Although the molecular lesion is a single-point mutation, the sickle gene is pleiotropic in nature causing ...

Erythrocyte membrane skeleton abnormalities in severe beta-thalassemia [PDF]
The protein composition of ghosts, inside-out vesicles (IOV), and membrane skeletons (MS) of erythrocytes (RBC) from splenectomized (spx) and nonsplenectomized (non-spx) patients with beta-thalassemia major and beta-thalassemia intermedia was determined. Ghosts from spx thalassemia intermedia patients had a significant increase in their globin content (

Abnormal phosphoenolpyruvate transport in erythrocytes of hereditary spherocytosis [PDF]
Abstract The rate of phosphoenolpyruvate transport in erythrocytes from patients with hereditary spherocytosis and from healthy individuals was examined in a 0.1 M citrate buffer (pH 6.1 at 37 degrees C) containing 10 mM phosphoenolpyruvate and 10 mM NaF. The rate in erythrocytes from patients with hereditary spherocytosis was 0.09 +/- 0.

Metabolomics in psoriatic disease: pilot study reveals metabolite differences in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. [PDF]
ImportanceWhile "omics" studies have advanced our understanding of inflammatory skin diseases, metabolomics is mostly an unexplored field in dermatology.ObjectiveWe sought to elucidate the pathogenesis of psoriatic diseases by determining the differences
