Genetic and biological markers of severity in sickle cell disease
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is remarkable for the variability of its phenotype despite its genetic simplicity, with family and population studies indicating a strong genetic influence. The best characterised genetic modifiers are genes controlling HbF levels and co-inheritance of alpha-thalassaemia. O...
