Thrombocytosis and the generation of platelet‐derived microparticles in the pathophysiology of sickle cell disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Thrombocytosis is associated with an increased production of platelet‐derived microparticles from activated platelets, which contribute to vaso‐occlusion in sickle cell disease by perpetuating the cycle of inflammation, procoagulant state and endothelial dysfunction.

Hydroxyurea (hydroxycarbamide) use in adults with haemoglobin SC disease: A real‐world study in Quebec

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Haemoglobin SC (HbSC) disease is the second most prevalent form of sickle cell disease, but evidence for hydroxyurea (hydroxycarbamide; HU) to prevent pain episodes was limited until the prospective identification of variables as outcomes for treatment (PIVOT) trial.

Covalent drug discovery: Progress against key targets, emerging strategies and lessons learnt

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Covalent drug discovery is currently experiencing a boom in industrial and academic interest. To date, at least 75 covalent drugs have received regulatory approval, targeting both traditional target classes and more challenging proteins for which other approaches failed. In many cases, unique aspects of covalent targeting are essential for the

Targeting protein–protein interactions with reversible covalent modalities: Non‐cysteine chemistries

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are central to diverse cellular functions, and represent a rapidly expanding class of therapeutic targets. Advancements in covalent drug design have enabled small‐molecule drugs to overcome challenges associated with engaging these targets, such as limited durations of action and difficult‐to‐drug (expansive,
