Sickle cell anaemia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Sickle-shaped red blood cells Sickle cell anaemia SCA ) is a common genetic disease which causes the red blood cells of a sufferer to be shaped like sickles , instead of the normal rounded shape. This causes the cells to become stuck in capillaries which deprives the body of oxygen and causes inflammation . The disease usually occurs in periodic painful attacks, eventually leading to damage of some internal organs, stroke , or anaemia , and usually resulting in early death. edit
Treatment
The first approved drug for the treatment of sickle cell anaemia, hydroxyurea , was shown to decrease the number and severeness of attacks in a study in 1995 and shown to increase survival time in a study in 2003. This is achieved by reactivating fetal hemoglobin production in place of the hemoglobin S that causes sickle cell anemia. Hydroxyurea had previously been used as a cancer drug, and there is some concern that long-term use may be harmful, but it is likely that the benefits outweigh the risks. edit
Detailed description and genetics
The gene allele responsible for sickle cell anaemia is incompletely recessive . A person who receives the defective gene from both father and mother develops the disease; a person who receives one defective and one healthy allele remains healthy, but can pass on the disease and is known as a

Quick Reference and Fact Sheets Sickle Cell Disease
What Is Sickle Cell Disease?
It is an inherited disease of red blood cells which can cause attacks of pain, damage to vital organs, risk of serious infections and can lead to early death. Sickle cell disease affects the main protein inside the red blood cells called hemoglobin. The disease occurs when a person inherits one sickle cell gene from each parent or a combination of one sickle cell gene plus one of several other abnormal hemoglobin genes.
Hemoglobin in the red blood cells carries oxygen from the lungs and takes it to every part of the body. The main hemoglobin in the red blood cells of people with sickle cell disease is not normal. Red blood cells containing mainly normal hemoglobin are round and flexible. In people with sickle cell disease, the abnormal hemoglobin forces the cells to lose their normally round and flexible shape, becoming distorted and rigid. Under a microscope, these abnormal cells may look like the C-shaped farm tool called a sickle. Sickle cells tend to become trapped and to be destroyed in small blood vessels (veins and arteries), the spleen, the liver and other organs. This results in a shortage of red blood cells, or anemia. Anemia can cause an affected child to be pale, short of breath, easily tired and have slowed growth and physical development. Certain conditions, such as infections or enlargement of the spleen, may worsen the anemia by speeding up destruction of red blood cells. Infections also can reduce red blood cell production, leading to worsening of anemia.

Pregnancy and Sickle Cell Anemia I have sickle cell anemia but my partner does not. We are considering having a child and would like to know the risks of conceiving under these circumstances. For a woman with sickle cell anemia who is interested in having children, it is ideal that she pursues supportive counseling and healthcare before she conceives. She needs both a high-risk obstetrician and a hemotologist. If the pregnancy is a surprise, she should seek medical attention as soon as she suspects she might be pregnant.
The pregnancies are at higher risk of spontaneous abortion, premature labor, pseudo-toxemia and cesarean section. The fetuses are more likely to have growth lags, and more trouble with the stresses of labor and delivery. After the birth, all women are more likely to have infections and blood clots, but the risk for sickle cell mothers is even greater.
At the first visit, a pregnant woman with sickle cell should have the following tests: complete blood count, reticulocyte count, hemoglobin electrophoresis (for her partner as well), liver function tests, hepatitis B and C, blood group and antibody typing, rubella antibodies, syphilis test.

Alternative Names: Anemia - sickle cell; Hemoglobin SS disease (Hb SS); Sickle cell disease
Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Sickle cell anemia is caused by an abnormal type of hemoglobin (oxygen carrying molecule) called hemoglobin S. It is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait that is, it occurs in someone who has inherited hemoglobin S from both parents. Someone who inherits hemoglobin S from one parent and normal hemoglobin (A) from the other parent will have sickle cell trait . Approximately 8% of African Americans have sickle cell trait. Someone who inherits hemoglobin S from one parent and another type of abnormal hemoglobin from the other parent will have another form of sickle cell disease, such as sickle cell-b

Sickle cell anemia
Definition
Sickle cell anemia is an inherited blood disorder that arises from a single amino acid substitution in one of the component proteins of hemoglobin. The component protein, or globin, that contains the substitution is defective. Hemoglobin molecules constructed with such proteins have a tendency to stick to one another, forming strands of hemoglobin within the red blood cells. The cells that contain these strands become stiff and elongatedthat is, sickle shaped. Description
Sickle-shaped cellsalso called sickle cellsdie much more rapidly than normal red blood cells, and the body cannot create replacements fast enough. Anemia develops due to the chronic shortage of red blood cells. Further complications arise because sickle cells do not fit well through small blood vessels, and can become trapped. The trapped sickle cells form blockages that prevent oxygenated blood from reaching associated tissues and organs. Considerable pain results in addition to damage to the tissues and organs. This damage can lead to serious complications, including

    Tutorial Objectives
    Using the Biology Workbench , we will examine hemoglobin and the sequence of amino acids that make up this protein. This tutorial will demonstrate the simple mutation in the hemoglobin protein that single-handedly causes a terrible disease. From this mutation, we will look at the three-dimensional structure of the hemoglobin protein using a molecular imaging program. The ability to visualize and manipulate hemoglobin adds a dimension of understanding to the mechanism that causes the characteristic sickle-shaped red blood cells of sickle cell anemia.
    Overview of Sicke-Cell Anemia
    Sickle cell anemia is a disease in which the patient's red blood cells have an abnormal shape much like that of a sickle. These sickled red blood cells are very fragile and the result is severe anemia, or decreased number of red blood cells. The disease causes many painful symptoms in patients. The abnormal shape of the cells in individuals with sickle cell anemia comes from a defective protein within the blood cells themselves. This defective protein is hemoglobin. The normal hemoglobin protein is made up of four parts, and therefore called a tetramer. Each part of the tetramer has the ability to bind an oxygen molecule and carry it from the lungs to the tissues in which oxygen is needed. When the defective hemoglobin in sickle cell anemia, referred to as Hb S, does not have an oxygen molecule bound, it tends to form a precipitate made up of lots of hemoglobin proteins stuck to each other. This precipitate is what causes the red blood cells to become sickle-shaped.
