Genetic Etiologies for Phenotypic Diversity in Sickle Cell Anemia
The clinical course of patients with sickle cell anemia, a Mendelian trait, is characteristically highly variable. HbF concentration and the presence of a thalassemia are established modulators of the disease, but cannot account for all of its clinical heterogeneity. To find additional genetic modul...
