Asymptomatic child heterozygous for hemoglobin S and hemoglobin Pôrto Alegre [PDF]
Pediatric Blood & Cancer, 2010 AbstractHemoglobin Pôrto Alegre (PA) is a rare hemoglobin resulting from a mutation in β9(A6)Ser → Cys. We describe an asymptomatic Puerto Rican female with combined heterozygosity for Hb PA and Hb S. Since birth, she has maintained normal hemoglobin, bilirubin, LDH levels, and reticulocyte count.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background An internal tandem duplication in the gene encoding Fms‐like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3‐ITD) is associated with high relapse risk and poor prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and plays a crucial role in treatment decisions. Measurable residual disease (MRD) analysis of FLT3‐ITD during and after treatment has shown prognostic ...

Aspartic protease activities of schistosomes cleave mammalian hemoglobins in a host-specific manner
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2007 We examined the efficiency of digestion of hemoglobin from four mammalian species, human, cow, sheep, and horse by acidic extracts of mixed sex adults of Schistosoma japonicum and S. mansoni. Activity ascribable to aspartic protease(s) from S.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

SPLENIC ABSCESS AND THE GENE FOR HEMOGLOBIN S [PDF]
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1973 Twenty-two cases of splenic abscess in Nigerians are reviewed; 2 were of the secondary type and 20 were primary splenic abscesses. Roentgenographically, 3 types of abscesses were distinguished: Type A with findings related only to splenomegaly; Type B with splenomegaly and gas within the abscess (pyogaseous abscess); and Type C with findings of ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
