About Sickle Cell Disease

Sickle Cell Anemia, also known as hemoglobin sc disease, is related to hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin-sickle cell disease syndrome and deficiency anemia, and has symptoms including abdominal pain, angina pectoris and chest pain. An important gene associated with Sickle Cell Anemia is HBB (Hemoglobin Subunit Beta), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Golgi-to-ER retrograde transport and Binding and Uptake of Ligands by Scavenger Receptors. The drugs Deferoxamine and Tocopherol have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include Blood, bone marrow and bone, and related phenotypes are chronic hemolytic anemia and recurrent infections

Major Symptoms of Sickle Cell Disease

Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder that primarily affects the blood cells. It results in a variety of symptoms, including anemia, fatigue, jaundice, and episodes of severe pain. The disease is characterized by the formation of sickling of red blood cells in the spleen and lungs, leading to inflammation and damage to these organs. It is a chronic condition that can cause long-term health problems and social isolation.

The suitable lifestyle for people suffering from Sickle cell disease includes the following points:

1. Follow the doctor's treatment recommendations: Sickle cell disease is a chronic disease, and patients need long-term medical treatment. Therefore, patients should follow the doctor's treatment recommendations, take medications on time, and receive regular checkups.

2. Pay attention to diet: The immune system of patients with Sickle cell disease is relatively fragile and they are susceptible to various diseases.
