Springer - Sickle Cell Anemia: Basic Science to Clinical Practice

Sickle Cell Anemia: From Basic Science to Clinical Practice by Springer offers a comprehensive update on the pathophysiology of one of the first identified molecular diseases. While a single mutation in the beta-globin gene is the root cause, the resulting molecular and cellular mechanisms lead to a wide range of complex symptoms. This text addresses the evolving understanding of sickle cell disease. Although the full complexity of the disease is still being studied, scientific knowledge has expanded significantly over recent decades. This book provides a necessary bridge between foundational science and practical clinical application, making it a valuable resource for those studying the disease mechanisms and the various symptoms associated with this condition.
