Single-cell measurement of red blood cell oxygen affinity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Oxygen is transported throughout the body by hemoglobin in red blood cells. While the oxygen affinity of blood is well understood and is routinely assessed in patients by pulse oximetry, variability at the single-cell level has not been previously measured.

Hydroxyurea-Increased Fetal Hemoglobin Is Associated with Less Organ Damage and Longer Survival in Adults with Sickle Cell Anemia

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Background Adults with sickle cell anemia (HbSS) are inconsistently treated with hydroxyurea. Objectives We retrospectively evaluated the effects of elevating fetal hemoglobin with hydroxyurea on organ damage and survival in patients enrolled in our ...

The role of cyclic nucleotide on fetal and neonantal erythropoiesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
For the purpose to reveal the changes in stimulatory effect of dibutyryl-cyclic- AMP on erythropoiesis during ontogenetic development, the author studied syntheses of DNA, RNA and protein of erythroid cells in fetal liver, neonatal and adult bone marrows

HAITCH: A Framework for Distortion and Motion Correction in Fetal Multi-Shell Diffusion-Weighted MRI [PDF]

open access: yes
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is pivotal for probing the microstructure of the rapidly-developing fetal brain. However, fetal motion during scans and its interaction with magnetic field inhomogeneities result in artifacts and data scattering across spatial and angular domains.

Hepatocellular carcinoma and fetal hemoglobin.

open access: yesThe Kurume Medical Journal, 1979
An immunological method for human hemoglobin assay was established, using which contents of fetal hemoglobin in the blood of hepatocellular carcinoma patients as well as in the extract of hehatocellular carcinoma tissue were measured. With the hemolysate, 4 out of 7 hepatocellular carcinoma cases showed slight but definite increase, 2 out of 10 in the ...

Dissection of the radical reactions linked to fetal hemoglobin reveals enhanced pseudoperoxidase activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2015
In the presence of excess hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), ferrous (Fe+2) human hemoglobin (Hb) (α2β2) undergoes a rapid conversion to a higher oxidation ferryl state (Fe+4) which rapidly autoreduces back to the ferric form (Fe+3) as H2O2 is consumed in the ...

Studies on Human γ-globin Gene Regulation: Transcription Factors in a Rubik’s Cube [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The red blood cell is one of the most important blood cells in the human body. Hemoglobin is the major protein in the red blood cell, and functions as a gas transporter (oxygen and carbon dioxide) to all parts of the body. Changes in the structure or the
