Hydroxyurea (HU) is clinically beneficial in sickle cell disease (SCD) through fetal hemoglobin (HbF) induction; however, the mechanism of HU is not yet fully elucidated. Selected miRNAs have been associated with HU-induced HbF production. We have in

Background Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is a clinically heterogeneous, monogenic disorder. Medical care has less‐than‐optimal impact on clinical outcomes in SCA in Africa due to several factors, including patient accessibility, poor access to resourc

International audience; Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a debilitating single gene disorder caused by a single point mutation that results in physical deformation (i.e. sickling) of erythrocytes at reduced oxygen tensions. Up to 75% of SCD in newborns w

Variants in BCL11A were previously associated with fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels among Cameroonian sickle cell disease (SCD) patients, however explaining only ∼2% of the variance. In the same patients, we have investigated the relationship between

Studies of hemoglobin S haplotypes in African subpopulations have potential implications for patient care and our understanding of genetic factors that have shaped the prevalence of sickle cell disease (SCD). We evaluated HBB gene cluster haplotypes

Partial carrier-resistance toPlasmodium falciparummalaria conferred by the sickle cell (HbS) mutation has resulted in the local amplification and positive selection of sickle cell disease (SCD) in malaria-endemic regions and particularly in sub-Sahar

Background Reactivation of adult hemoglobin (HbF) is currently a dominant therapeutic approach to sickle cell disease (SCD). In this study, we have investigated among SCD patients from Cameroon, the association of HbF level and variants in the HU-ind

Background. An exponential increase in the number of sickle cell disease (SCD) patients in paediatric services in Cape Town, South Africa, has been reported. The trend in adult/adolescent services has not been investigated. Objectives. To evaluate ep

Micro-albuminuria and glomerular hyperfiltration are primary indicators of renal dysfunctions in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD), with more severe manifestations previously associated with variants in APOL1 and HMOX1 among African Americans. We have invest
