The Sickling Phenomenon and Heterogeneity of Deer Hemoglobin.
SummaryA marked degree of heterogeneity is demonstrable in deer hemoglobin. This heterogeneity appears to be on a genetic basis. A single hemoglobin component responsible for sickling of deer hemoglobin can be identified.Addendum. Since this paper was prepared, similar electrophoretic results were reported by Kitchen, H., Putnam, F. W. and Taylor, W. J.

A global survey of blood transfusion practices for patients with sickle cell disease
Abstract Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects over 7 million people globally, with blood transfusion remaining a cornerstone of management. However, contemporary transfusion practices across diverse settings remain poorly characterized. We evaluated global transfusion practices for patients with SCD to identify gaps and inform resource ...

Established and experimental treatments for sickle cell disease
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by the presence of sickle hemoglobin (HbS), which has the unique property of polymerizing when deoxygenated. The sickling process is markedly accelerated when intracellular concentration of HbS is increased. Due

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I

ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) has undergone major changes in the last decades. Its prevalence has been steadily increasing and numerous advances have been made in the management of the disease. However, the effect in real‐life setting of these major changes is unknown, particularly in a Canadian environment. Procedure We aimed to assess
