Agentes indutores da síntese de hemoglobina fetal Fetal hemoglobin inducing factors [PDF]
Anemia falciforme é uma doença heterogênea caracterizada por uma grande variabilidade clínica. Desde as primeiras observações desta doença, foi visto que aumento no nível de hemoglobina fetal (HbF) estava associado com manifestações clínicas mais brandas,

MR imaging–derived oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curves and fetal-placental oxygen-hemoglobin affinities [PDF]
PURPOSE: To generate magnetic resonance (MR) imaging–derived, oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curves and to map fetal-placental oxygen-hemoglobin affinity in pregnant mice noninvasively by combining blood oxygen level–dependent (BOLD) T2* and oxygen ...

Whole transcriptome analysis of human erythropoietic cells during ontogenesis suggests a role of VEGFA gene as modulator of fetal hemoglobin and pharmacogenomic biomarker of treatment response to hydroxyurea in β-type hemoglobinopathy patients [PDF]
Background: Human erythropoiesis is characterized by distinct gene expression profiles at various developmental stages. Previous studies suggest that fetal-to-adult hemoglobin switch is regulated by a complex mechanism, in which many key players still ...

Effect of hydroxyurea on G gamma chain fetal hemoglobin synthesis by sickle-cell disease patients
Hydroxyurea is used for sickle-cell disease patients in order to increase fetal hemoglobin synthesis and consequently decrease the severity of pain episodes.

Acute fetal anemia diagnosed by middle cerebral artery Doppler velocimetry in stage v twin-twin transfusion syndrome. [PDF]
In stage V twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), up to 50% of surviving twins die or experience permanent disabilities, likely due to acute intertwin hemorrhage resulting in sudden severe anemia of the survivor.

Hydroxyurea ameliorates mouse hypoxia through inducing embryonic hemoglobin
Objective To investigate the ameliorative effect and mechanism of hydroxyurea (HU) on hypoxia mice in a closed environment. Methods Sixty male C57BL/6J mice (6~8 weeks old, weighing 18~22 g) were randomly divided into normoxia control group (NC, n=10 ...

Evaluation of Glycated Albumin (GA) and GA/Hba1c Ratio for Diagnosis of Diabetes and Glycemic Control: A Comprehensive Review [PDF]
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by chronic high blood glucose concentrations (hyperglycemia). When it is left untreated or improperly managed, it can lead to acute complications including diabetic ketoacidosis and ...
