Altered T-Cell Profile in Sickle Cell Disease
1 Mar 2023
Abstract excerpt
Background: Impaired immune status due to altered T-cell response in sickle cell disease (SCD) might provide substantial insight into immune activity in SCD patients. Materials & methods: A total of 30 healthy control, 20 SCD patients in a crisis state and 38 SCD patients in a steady state were evaluated for T-cell subsets. Results: A significant decrease in CD8+ (p = 0.012) and CD8+45RA-197+ (p = 0.015) T-cells...
