It's not a disease, it is a hereditary disorder. Basically it is a problem with irregular red blood cell shape, which can cause pain in the arteries and veins, among other things.
you can eat what we eat. Theres no difference. People w/out sickle cell eat regular things.so can people w/ sickle cell
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic problem so you are born with it. Initially babies make a different kind of hemoglobin (fetal hemoglobin) and so do not have problems right away. Usually by 6-12 month s of age they are making the sickle hemoglobin and can start to have problems.
Sickle-cell Anemia, or Sickle-cell Disease, is a disease which is caused by a mutation in the animo acid sequence of the red blood cells.The type of mutation occurs during the transcription of messenger RNA (e.g. GTC becomes CCG instead of CAG ). This change causes the mRNA to translate into a different amino acid (e.g. Valine instead of Glutamate ).In this disease, the changes start in amino acids, the primary structure of proteins, thus changing all the higher protein structures. The red blood cells then will have a different shape, like a sickle.These sickle shaped red blood cells will nor function normally. Thier shape disables them from flowing easily in the blood vessels, which might lead to further complications. Also, their life span is shorter than the normal cells, hence causing Anemia.See the Related Link.A chronic, inherited blood disorder characterized by crescent-shaped red blood cells. It occurs primarily in people of African descent, and produces symptoms including episodic pain in the joints, fever, leg ulcers, and jaundice.
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes; a kind of white blood cell that support the human being battle disease. A high white blood cell count indicates an infection or disease.
