delivered utilizing a proprietary Editas LNP that works outside the liver, puts us on a clear path to develop a potentially first- and best-in-class in vivo gene edited medicine for the treatment of sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia,” said Gilmore O’Neill, M.B., M.M.Sc., Pres...
cellanemiaα-thalassemiaExtract: Hematologic and globin synthesis studies were performed in a black American family in which the genes for α-thalassemia and hemoglobins (Hb) S and C were segregating. The following distribution of these abnormalities was found: father, sickle cell trait + α-...
Here, we hypothesize that IVH leads to structural and functional damage to the choroid plexus and that extracellular Hb and its breakdown products are causal initiators of cellular activation, inflammatory response, oxidative stress and subsequent tissue damage and cell death. This was investigated in...

Chemical heterogeneity of fetal hemoglobin in subjects with sickle cell anemia, homozygous Hb-C disease, SC disease, and various combinations of hemoglobin variants. This study has determined the ratio of G γ to A γ chains in the fetal hemoglobin of individuals with various combinations of abnorm...

In this study, we have examined the potential damaging effects of cell-free Hb on plasmid DNA (pDNA). Hb induced cleavage of supercoiled pDNA (sc pDNA) which was proportional to the concentration of Hb applied. Almost 70% of sc pDNA was converted to open circular or linear DNA using ...
. Non-limiting exemplary genetic mutations that cause sickle cell disease include Hb SS, which is hemoglobin with an E6V mutation in each of the two hemoglobin β chains; Hb SC, which is hemoglobin with one β chain with an E6V mutation and one β chain with an E6K mutation; Hb SD, ...
