Plasma and red cell lipids in sickle cell disease.

Lipids, in particular phospholipids, are essential components of membrane systems, and the measurement of phospholipids and cholesterol in plasma and tissues is helpful in diagnosis. Phospholipids represent about 60 to 70% of total red cell (RBC) lipids, while about 25% is free cholesterol. Lipids in RBC are present in a dynamic state of equilibrium, and the RBC have the capacity for rapid exch...

Reduced erythrocyte membrane protein methylation in sickle cell anemia.

The methylation of erythrocyte membrane components in sickle cell anemia has been studied and found to differ considerably from that of normal erythrocytes. When sickle erythrocytes were incubated under physiological conditions (pH = 7.4, 37 degrees C) in the presence of L-[methyl-3H]methionine or S-adenosyl-L-[methyl-3H] methionine, a 50% decrease in the protein-carboxyl methylation was observ...

Side Effects of Hydroxyurea in Patients with Sickle Cell Anemia

Background: Hemoglobin S arises is the result of a point mutation (A-T) in the sixth codon on the -globin gene on chromosome 11 causing sickle cell anemia. The presence of fetal hemoglobin in infancy plays a relatively protective role for vaso-occlusive symptoms that are the major contributor for the morbidity and mortality among patients with sickle cell anemia. hydroxyurea, an s-phase-specif...
