Sickle Cell Anemia Sickle cell is a homogenous genetic anemia caused when an abnormal gene (hemoglobin S or HbS) causes the substitution of the amino acid valine, for another, glutamic acid (Amundsen et al., 1984). The sickle gene protects heterogeneous carriers (HbC) from P. falciparum in ...
Sickle cell tests help diagnose sickle cell anemia, an inherited disorder that leads to the production of the abnormal hemoglobin called hemoglobin S.
Sickle cell anemia is an inherited disorder that leads to the production of an abnormal type of hemoglobin called hemoglobin S (Hb S or Hgb S). Sickle cell tests determine the presence and relative amount of hemoglobin S in a blood sample or detect mutations in the genes that produce hemoglo...
Hemoglobin studies have been presented on a patient with clinically typical sickle cell anemia who was found to possess two major adult hemoglobins, Hb S and hybrid Hb GPhil./S. Four hemoglobins were demonstrated in his mother, Hb A, GPhil.,S and GPhil./S, in somewhat unexpected and as...
Sickle cell disease or sickle cell anemia is the most common of the hereditary blood disorders among black people of African descent worldwide. Learn about symptoms, treatment, causes, inheritance, testing, complications, and more.
Thus, functional asplenia is an acquired defect in sickle cell anemia. Howell-Jolly bodies were noted prior to the abnormal scan. Functional asplenia occurred when Hgb F fell below 20%. Two infants retain normal splenic function at 12 and 20 months. These observations indicate variability in the...

Sickle Cell Disease (Clinical) Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of genetic disorders in which an abnormal Hb molecule (Hb S) transforms RBCs into sickle-shaped cells, resulting in chronic anemia, vasoocclusive episodes, pain, and organ damage. Sickle cell trait, which is the heterozygous...
