Toxoplasma gondii, Leishmania amazonensis and Trypanosoma cruzi are obligate intracellular parasites that multiply until lysis of host cells. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of hydroxyurea (an inhibitor of cell division at the G1/S phase) on the multiplication of L. amazonensis, T. gondii, and T. cruzi in infected host cells. Infected cells were treated with hydroxyurea ...
CONTEXT Hydroxyurea increases levels of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) and decreases morbidity from vaso-occlusive complications in patients with sickle cell anemia (SCA). High HbF levels reduce morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE To determine whether hydroxyurea attenuates mortality in patients with SCA. DESIGN Long-term observational follow-up study of mortality in patients with SCA who originally...
BACKGROUND Sickle cell anemia (SCA), one of most prevalent monogenic diseases worldwide, is caused by a glutamic acid to valine substitution on the beta globin protein of hemoglobin, which leads to hemolytic anemia. Hydroxyurea, the only disease-modifying therapy approved by the Food and Drug Administration for SCA, has proven to be a viable therapeutic option for SCA patients in resource-rich ...
OBJECTIVE To investigate interferon (IFN) alpha 2 b for treating patients with JAK2V617F positive polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocytosis (ET). METHODS Interferon alpha 2 b was used to treat patients with JAK2V617F positive PV and ET. In control group, hydroxyurea was used. Endpoint of study was to compare rates of hematological and molecular remission. RESULTS Patients in the i...
Children with hemoglobin SC (HbSC) disease suffer a significant incidence of silent cerebral infarcts but stroke is rare. A 2-year-old African American boy with HbSC disease presented with focal neurologic deficits associated with magnetic resonance imaging evidence of cerebral infarction with vascular abnormalities. After the acute episode he was treated with monthly transfusions and subsequen...
Objective: To determine the effectiveness of hydroxyurea on blood transfusion rate in patients with beta-thalassemia major.
 Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was held Department Genetics Molecular Biology/Pathology at LUMHS Jamshoro, Diagnostic Research Laboratory, Hyderabad, Sindh from February 2015 to August 2015. Patients beta thalassaemia major, diagnosed Hb electropho...
Toxoplasma gondii multiplies within parasitophorous vacuole that is not recognized by the primary no oxidative defense of host cells, mainly represented by the fusion with acidic organelles. Recent studies have already shown that hydroxyurea arrested the intracellular parasites leading to its destruction. In the present work we investigated the cellular mechanism involved in the destruction of ...
OBJECTIVE The oxidative stress in 20 sickle cell anemia patients taking hydroxyurea and 13 sickle cell anemia patients who did not take hydroxyurea was compared with a control group of 96 individuals without any hemoglobinopathy. METHODS Oxidative stress was assessed by thiobarbituric acid reactive species production, the Trolox-equivalent antioxidant capacity and plasma glutathione levels. ...
Hydroxyurea is a well-established inhibitor of ribonucleotide reductase that has a long history of scientific interest and clinical use for the treatment of neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases. It is currently the staple drug for the management of sickle cell anemia and chronic myeloproliferative disorders. Due to its reversible inhibitory effect on DNA replication in various organisms, hydr...
The association between DNA precursor synthesis, cell cycle perturbations, and cell death caused by the anticancer drug hydroxyurea was investigated in mouse and human T-lymphoma cells. Hydroxyurea inhibits the enzyme ribonucleotide reductase, leading to decreased deoxyribo nucleoside triphosphate pools and an accumulation of cells in early S-phase of the cell cycle. We wished to clarify the me...
