In vitro determination of hemoglobin A1c for diabetes diagnosis and management: technology update [PDF]
It is fascinating to consider the analytical improvements that have occurred since glycated hemoglobin was first used in routine clinical laboratories for diabetes monitoring around 1977; at that time methods displayed poor precision, there were no ...

Cross-sectional and longitudinal association between hemoglobin concentration and hypertension
We investigated the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between hemoglobin concentration and hypertension in a Korean population. Between 2006 and 2013, we examined 4899 participants with mean age of 56.6 years (range 35–88 years) from a rural ...

The primary structure of three hemoglobin chains from the indigo snake (Drymarchon corais erebennus, Serpentes): First evidence for αD chains and two β chain types in snakes [PDF]
The hemoglobin of the indigo snake (Drymarchon corais erebennus, Colubrinae) consists of two components, HbA and HbD, in the ratio of 1:1. They differ in both their alpha and beta chains.

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 ...

Domain-focused CRISPR screen identifies HRI as a fetal hemoglobin regulator in human erythroid cells
A CRISPR screen for RBC regulators Hemoglobin in red blood cells (RBCs) carries oxygen to the tissues. Sickle cell disease is an inherited condition that involves abnormal hemoglobin.

Hemoglobin I: An Inherited Hemoglobin Anomaly [PDF]
Abstract A hitherto undescribed hemoglobin anomaly has been detected in a North Carolina Negro family. This new hemoglobin, designated type I, which has been electrophoretically characterized, was found in combination with normal adult A hemoglobin in 6 of 17 members of one family.

Effect of liganded hemoglobin S and hemoglobin A on the aggregation of deoxy-hemoglobin S.
The effect of the carbonmonoxy forms of Hb S and Hb A on the solubility and kinetics of the aggregation of deoxy-Hb S in concentrated phosphate buffer was studied. The delay time was prolonged exponentially when the ratios of CO-Hb S and CO-Hb A to deoxy-Hb S were increased.

Discovery of GBT440, an Orally Bioavailable R-State Stabilizer of Sickle Cell Hemoglobin
We report the discovery of a new potent allosteric effector of sickle cell hemoglobin, GBT440 (36), that increases the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and consequently inhibits its polymerization when subjected to hypoxic conditions.

Association of Hemoglobin Concentration and Its Change With Cardiovascular and All‐Cause Mortality
Background Anemia is thought to increase mortality risks, but the effects of high hemoglobin concentration on survival are unclear. The effect of change in hemoglobin concentrations on survival in the general population is also unknown.
