- Sickle Cell Anemia Sickle cell anemia is a prevalent disease, which usually is seen in the African American community. It is an inherited disease where both parents have a copy of the gene and pass it along to offspring. Instructions Write a short essay about sickle cell anemia. Research our Virtual Library, the internet, and any other resource. Answer the following questions: What are the top current treatments for both adults and children? Among males and females affected, who tends to have more crises and why? Would stem cell therapy work? Why or why not? Name three celebrities who are affected by this disease.arrow_forward“A retrospective case series demonstrated that the neurological symptoms induced by SARS-CoV-2-infection include CNS symptoms (e.g., headache, dizziness, impaired consciousness, ataxia, acute cerebrovascular disease, and epilepsy), peripheral nervous system symptoms (such as hyposmia, hypogeusia, hypopsia, and neuralgia), and skeletal muscle symptoms [22-24].” Where in the body does hyposmia, hypogeusia, hypopsia, and neuralgia NOT occur?arrow_forwardYou are in the process of developing a monoclonal antibody against an Influenza virus spike protein "H7." You have isolated the B cells producing antibodies against the viral H7 protein and fused those specific B cells with a unique kind of mutant myeloma cells. The myeloma cells can't make any of the three following enzymes; dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), thymidine kinase (TK), and hypoxanthine-guanosine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT). The mutant unfused myeloma cells are grown in the laboratory in a nucleotide supplemented medium. For selecting the hybridomas, you have used a modified medium HT that does not contain any aminopterin but contains hypoxanthine and thymidine. Which of the following result do you expect to see from your experiment, and what problem you may encounter in the future after the hybridoma selection?arrow_forward
- Queen Victoria’s third child, Alice, passed hemophilia to the German and Russian imperial families.Of Alice’s six children, three were afflicted with hemophilia. At the age of three, her son Frederick bled for three agonizing days from a cut on the ear. Eventually, the flow of blood was stanched.
