Interaction Between Human Hemoglobin Variants and Hemoglobin S
SummarySeven abnormal hemoglobins were investigated for an effect on the gelation of Hb S in the deoxy- or oxy-conformation. A positive effect (decreased MGC) was associated with substitution of Glu β6, Glu β26 and Glu β121. No difference was observed between the deoxy- or oxy-hemoglobins except in the case of Hb N-Baltimore which, in the deoxy state ...

The Influence of Body Size and Hemoglobin Multiplicity on Critical Oxygen Threshold in Red Drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) [PDF]
Hypoxia is common in marine environments and fishes use a suite of cardiorespiratory adjustments to defend aerobic metabolism, including reducing standard metabolic rate (SMR), the minimum metabolic rate needed to sustain life at a specified temperature,

Germline TP53 Mutations Causing Diamond–Blackfan Anemia: A French Report
ABSTRACT Diamond–Blackfan anemia is a rare congenital erythroblastopenia typically caused by mutations in ribosomal protein genes. Recently, gain‐of‐function mutations in TP53 have been identified as a novel cause of Diamond–Blackfan anemia. We report two French patients who both harbored a heterozygous TP53 deletion (NM_000546.5: c.1077delA; p ...

ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic, inherited hemoglobinopathy that requires frequent hospitalization for disease‐related complications. Canadian data on inpatient care is limited. This study compared caregiver‐reported hospital experiences of children with SCD to those with cystic fibrosis (CF), a chronic, autosomal recessive ...

Point-of-care versus central testing of hemoglobin during large volume blood transfusion. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Point-of-care (POC) hemoglobin testing has the potential to revolutionize massive transfusion strategies. No prior studies have compared POC and central laboratory testing of hemoglobin in patients undergoing massive transfusions. METHODS: We
