Sickle Cell Screen People with sickle cell disease (or anemia) have an abnormal form of blood cell (Hemoglobin S) which causes the red blood cells to be curved into crescent or “sickle” shape and not the normal, round shape. Round blood cells pass through blood vessels easily, carrying ...

Sickle cell disease is diagnosed via blood test, however, CRISPR-Cas9 systems have now been adapted as more rapid diagnostic tools for the genetic mutation that causes the disease. One recently developed CRISPR diagnostic tool for sickle cell anemia is the SNP-Chip (see link below), which uses...

Victoria Gray, the first patient in the sickle cell study, had long suffered severe pain bouts that often sent her to the hospital. "I had aching pains, sharp pains, burning pains, you name it. That's all I've known my entire life," said Gray, 35, who lives in Forest, Mississippi...
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of inherited disorders caused by mutations in HBB, which encodes haemoglobin subunit β. The incidence is estimated to be between 300,000 and 400,000 neonates globally each year, the majority in sub-Saharan Africa. Ha
MCV, mean cell volume; HbF, fetal hemoglobin; RBC, red blood cell; ANC, absolute neutrophil count. The ANC and WBC of individuals with SCD are elevated without therapy [32,33]. Hydroxyurea normalizes the average ANC and WBC. The average ANC decreased from ~7000 cells/µL at the ...
