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 ...

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

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 ...

A century of theories of balancing selection

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

Sutimlimab in Patients With Cold Agglutinin Disease (CAD): Results From a Managed Access Program

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is a low‐grade lymphoproliferative disorder accounting for 15%–30% of patients suffering from autoimmune hemolytic anemias. The clonal B cells produce autoantibodies primarily of the IgM‐κ class that cause agglutination of red blood cells (RBCs) at temperatures ≤ 37°C and activate the classical complement pathway ...

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
