Sickle red cells as danger signals on proinflammatory gene expression, leukotriene B4 and interleukin-1 beta production in peripheral blood mononuclear cell
SCA patients have inflammatory mediator’s levels higher than in healthy controls.
•
RBC from SCA patients induce TLR and NLRP3 inflammasome expression.
•
HU does not prevent NLRP3 inflammasome- and TLR-dependent inflammation.
•
TLR and NLRP3 pathways may be key inducers for inflammation in SCA.
