What is sickle cell anemia?

Sickle cell anemia is a condition that affects blood cells. It is characterized by an abnormality in hemoglobin, the protein present in red blood cells that carries oxygen to various tissues. Due to sickle cell anemia, the oxygen supply to the tissues is altered and deficient.

In a person who does not have the genes for sickle cell anemia, the red blood cells are smooth, perfectly round, and flexible. Thus, they are able to move easily thru the blood vessels. Red blood cells that contain sickle cell hemoglobin are rigid and brittle. Sickle cell anemia is characterized by red blood cells that are shaped like a crescent or sickle. These cells have a tendency to clump together, and their movement thru the vascular system is difficult. They have the ability to block small blood vessels, thereby hindering the circulation of healthy and normal blood that carries oxygen. Moreover, in the presence of sickle cell anemia, the lifespan of sickled red blood cells does not exceed 10 to 20 days, compared to 120 days for normal red blood cells. Moreover, due to their abnormal morphology and rigidity, sickle cells undergo destruction by the spleen, the organ responsible for blood filtration that eliminates pathogens. Given the reduced number of healthy red blood cells in the body, this leads to anemia known as "sickle cell anemia." Moreover, over time, sickle cells damage the spleen, thus exposing the individual with sickle cell anemia to an increased risk of infections.

What are the causes and modes of transmission of sickle cell anemia?

Sickle cell anemia is a genetic condition passed down thru heredity. It is the result of a defective gene. It is transmitted thru an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance. This means that a person will only develop sickle cell disease if they inherit two genes, one from their mother and the other from their father. A person with only one gene for the disease is healthy and is described as a "carrier" of the disease. If two healthy carriers conceive together, the risk of them having a child with sickle cell disease is higher (25% higher than that of the general population).

We distinguish several forms of sickle cell anemia. The most frequent and severe form of sickle cell anemia is defined by the presence of two copies of the gene responsible for hemoglobin S (homozygous SS sickle cell anemia). The most common form of sickle cell disease occurs when a person receives the Hb C gene from one parent and the Hb S gene from the other. We then refer to cases of heterozygous sickle cell anemia in the medical field.

What are the symptoms of a sickle cell crisis: Anemia, pain

If the diagnosis has not been made before birth or in utero, the signs of sickle cell anemia generally appear in the infant around three months of age. Before this age, fetal hemoglobin prevents the transformation of red blood cells. While some individuals show mild signs, others require frequent hospitalization due to severe complications. The most common manifestations of sickle cell anemia are:

  • painful crises called vaso-occlusive crises (obstruction of blood vessels by rigid red blood cells);
  • anemia, which manifests as chronic fatigue and weakness;
  • inflammation and swelling of the joints, due to a vaso-occlusive crisis situation;
  • sickle cell anemia causes yellow eyes, but also yellowing of the skin (jaundice), secondary to hemolysis (destruction of red blood cells);
  • infections and spleen damage.

The diagnosis of sickle cell anemia: which test to perform?

A simple blood test can diagnose sickle cell anemia. Neonatal screening for sickle cell disease is systematically carried out in high-risk populations among children born in France. In France, prenatal diagnosis of sickle cell disease is also performed on fetuses whose parents have been identified as healthy carriers of this disease. Sickle cell disease can be detected during pregnancy in one of the following ways:

  • by taking chorionic villi from the placenta;
  • by performing an amniocentesis, that is, by taking a sample of the amniotic fluid.
    Sickle cell children are at increased risk of infection and stroke (CVA), so early diagnosis and treatment are essential.

Medical treatment of sickle cell disease

For many people affected by sickle cell disease, the care and management of this condition primarily focus on mitigating its severity and alleviating symptoms, particularly the pain associated with sickle cell disease. Indeed, there is no curative therapy available to treat sickle cell disease.

The treatment implemented is most of the time:

  • monitoring to prevent complications: taking antibiotics, vaccination against infections, iron and folic acid supplements, hydration, medical monitoring to reduce the risk of stroke, as well as on the kidneys, and to limit breathing difficulties;
  • blood transfusions, to limit anemia and prevent complications;
  • a bone marrow transplant from a compatible donor;
  • gene therapies, which are currently under evaluation, but seem promising.
