Sickle Cell Diastolic Cardiomyopathy and Mortality Risk: A Novel Echocardiographic Framework for Prognostic Stratification

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular complications are the leading cause of mortality in sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients. While extensive data have identified diastolic dysfunction (DD) to increase morbidity and mortality, the unique hemodynamic conditions inherent to SCA challenge the current recommendations to assess diastolic function. Thus, there is an urgent

Transferrin Purification, Biophysical Characterization, and Lung Biodistribution in Sickle Cell Disease Mice

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plasma transferrin (Tf) is the transport protein central to the process of iron recycling and metabolism. Holo‐Tf serves as the body's pool of ferric iron, facilitating transport from tissues such as the intestine, liver, spleen, and finally bone marrow, where iron is incorporated into erythropoiesis.
