Background :Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder caused by a mutation in the beta-globin gene, leading to the synthesis of sickle hemoglobin called HbS. Under deoxygenated conditions, HbS polymerizes and forms fibers that weakens red blood cells (RBC) resulting in hemolysis and vaso-occlusion. Recently, ineffective erythropoiesis in SCD has been reported, characterized by higher apoptosis levels during late erythropoiesis. Interestingly, fetal hemoglobin (HbF)-expressing erythroblasts during erythroid differentiation seem to be protected from the apoptosis. |
