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

Cerebral Blood Transit in Sickle Cell Anemia
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients upregulate cerebral blood flow to compensate for decreased arterial oxygen content. Such hyperemic conditions can manifest as venous hyperintense signal on arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI, which may reflect faster capillary blood transit, altered oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), and infarct risk ...

ABSTRACT Management of cerebral vasculopathy in sickle cell anemia (SCA) includes standard‐care, that is, chronic transfusion (CT) or hydroxyurea, and hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). DREPAGREFFE‐1 (December 2010/June 2013), a French multicenter trial, was the first prospective trial comparing standard‐care to match sibling donor (MSD)‐HCT in ...
