Does Sickle Cell Anaemia Have a Relationship With Avascular Pulp Necrosis? A Systematic Review

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic review examined the relationship between sickle cell disease (SCD), an inherited genetic hemoglobinopathy, and avascular pulp necrosis (APN) in intact teeth. A comprehensive search of eight electronic databases was performed up to December 2024.

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

A bioinformatics insight to rhizobial globins: gene identification and mapping, polypeptide sequence and phenetic analysis, and protein modeling. [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/5ai]

F1000Research, 2015
Globins (Glbs) are proteins widely distributed in organisms. Three evolutionary families have been identified in Glbs: the M, S and T Glb families. The M Glbs include flavohemoglobins (fHbs) and single-domain Glbs (SDgbs); the S Glbs include globin ...

New biosensors and transgenic mice for multiplex cGMP imaging

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a versatile second messenger that is important for human (patho‐)physiology and pharmacotherapy. Live‐cell imaging of cGMP with biosensors allows to elucidate its spatiotemporal dynamics in real time under close‐to‐native conditions. However, to monitor two separate cGMP pools or cGMP/cAMP

Longitudinal Analysis of Sleep‐Disordered Breathing and Cognitive Outcomes in Children Living With Sickle Cell Anaemia

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) and cognitive challenges are commonly observed in children living with sickle cell anaemia (SCA). This study investigated the longitudinal change in polysomnographic outcomes and the association with cognitive functions in children living with SCA.

The DNA binding factor Hmg20b is a repressor of erythroid differentiation

Haematologica, 2011
Background In erythroblasts, the CoREST repressor complex is recruited to target promoters by the transcription factor Gfi1b, leading to repression of genes mainly involved in erythroid differentiation.

Whole Blood Transcriptomic Analysis of Sickle Cell Trait

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell trait (SCT) is the heterozygous carrier state for the HBB missense variant which causes sickle cell disease (SCD). SCT has been associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism and chronic kidney disease as well as alterations in clinical laboratory parameters. To investigate differential gene expression in SCT, we used RNA

Patient‐Reported Outcomes With Luspatercept Through 5 Years of Treatment in Patients With Non‐Transfusion‐Dependent β‐Thalassemia Treated in the BEYOND Trial

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the phase 2, double‐blind, randomized controlled BEYOND trial (NCT03342404), luspatercept increased hemoglobin levels in patients with non‐transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia (NTDT). This study assessed long‐term effects of luspatercept on patient‐reported outcomes (PROs), using data from BEYOND and patients who continued luspatercept ...

A multi‐omics investigation of sarcopenia and frailty: Integrating genomic, epigenomic and telomere length data

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this

What influences Hb fetal production in adulthood?

Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2011
Human hemoglobin genes are located in α and β globin gene clusters in chromosomes 16 and 11, respectively. Different types of hemoglobin are synthesized according to the stage of development with fetal hemoglobin (α2γ2) (Hb F) being ...
