Proteomic Analysis of Golden Sputum Reveals Pulmonary Complement Activation During Acute Chest Syndrome in Children With Sickle Cell Disease

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute chest syndrome (ACS) is one of the most common severe complications of sickle cell disease (SCD). In recent years, a major role of inflammation and innate immunity has been evidenced, but ACS pathophysiology remains incompletely understood, and therapeutic options are limited.

Stroke without cerebral arteriopathy in sickle cell disease children: causes and treatment

Haematologica
Cerebral arteriopathy (CA) in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) is classically described as chronic stenosis of arteries in the anterior brain circulation, leading to ischemic stroke. Some studies have however reported strokes in children with SCD

Effect of Red Blood Cell Transfusion on Inflammatory and Angiogenic Pathways in Patients With Sickle Cell Disease

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic inflammatory state, characterized by increased plasma values of inflammatory and angiogenic proteins. Although red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is known to have immunomodulatory effects in other conditions, its potential effects on the inflammatory state in SCD remain largely unknown.

Sickle Cell Disease Complications [PDF]

Thalassemia Reports, 2014
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited, lifelong condition. The sickle mutation consists a single nucleotide change (GAT->GTT) in the sixth codon of exon 1 of the β-globin gene coding for the β-globin polypeptide of hemoglobin (Hb) (a2β2). This change results in replacement of the wild type glutamic acid residue by a valine residue in β-globin ...

Self‐Management Interventions in Young Adults (18–30 Years) With Type 1 Diabetes, Sickle Cell Disease, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Scoping Review

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluctuating chronic conditions (FCC) in young adults aged 18–30 years, such as type 1 diabetes (T1D), sickle cell disease (SCD), and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), present unique self‐management challenges due to unpredictable symptom patterns that disrupt daily life.

Catalytic Amyloids: Turning Fibrils Into Biocatalysts

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Amyloids, traditionally associated with diseases, have emerged as versatile catalytic scaffolds. From natural amyloid sequences to bioinspired and de novo designs, we highlight strategies to construct catalytic active sites and anchor enzymes onto fibrils, creating versatile nanomaterials with tunable activities. ABSTRACT Amyloids have been regarded as
