Blood Cell Counts and the Duffy Null Phenotype: Beyond Neutropenia

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The absence of Duffy antigen expression on red blood cells, caused by a single nucleotide polymorphism in the DARC/ACKR1 gene, confers protection against malaria and is associated with lower absolute neutrophil counts (ANC) in some studied populations.

Is There a Difference in Occurrence of Complications Between Adults With Hemoglobin SS and Hemoglobin SC Disease: An Extended Systematic Review. [PDF]

Eur J Haematol
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by both acute and chronic complications. The clinical manifestation of these complications differs between genotypes. Given the large amount of research already published, this systematic review aims to offer a complete overview of types of sickle cell complications between adults in the most common ...

Characterizing Red Blood Cell Rheological Parameters Using Automated Syllectometry: Conventional and Exploratory Multivariate Analyses

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Red blood cell (RBC) biomechanics are key determinants of blood rheology, microcirculatory flow, and tissue oxygen delivery, yet remain underutilized in clinical practice because of methodological variability and limited standardization.

The Sickling Phenomenon and Heterogeneity of Deer Hemoglobin.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1964
SummaryA marked degree of heterogeneity is demonstrable in deer hemoglobin. This heterogeneity appears to be on a genetic basis. A single hemoglobin component responsible for sickling of deer hemoglobin can be identified.Addendum. Since this paper was prepared, similar electrophoretic results were reported by Kitchen, H., Putnam, F. W. and Taylor, W. J.

Erythrocyte ‘Feierzeit’ reaction: Novel filamentous and vesicular response to n‐butyl acetate

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Human erythrocytes (red blood cells; RBCs) undergo spontaneous disassembly after several hours of exposure to n‐butyl acetate (nBA). Images of the morphological changes were captured in time‐lapse sequences using differential interference contrast (DIC) light microscopy.

Established and experimental treatments for sickle cell disease

Haematologica, 2004
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by the presence of sickle hemoglobin (HbS), which has the unique property of polymerizing when deoxygenated. The sickling process is markedly accelerated when intracellular concentration of HbS is increased. Due

Periodontal Therapy–Related Changes in Clinical Parameters, Active‐Matrix Metalloproteinase‐8 and C‐Reactive Protein in Prediabetes and Diabetes

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study investigated the effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) on periodontal clinical parameters, active‐matrix metalloproteinase‐8 (aMMP‐8), high sensitivity C‐reactive protein (hsCRP), and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and their relationships in diabetes and prediabetes patients with periodontitis.
