Timelapse depicting NPC clustering and ER expansion in a Schizosaccharomyces pombe cell expressing Cut11-GFP and mCherry-AHDL after exposure to 150 mM HU for two hours before the beginning of the experiment. Arrows show the appearance of cortical ER expansions.
The ER provides the proper redox environment for S-S bond formation & protein folding. This study shows that the #cancer drug #hydroxyurea disrupts redox-dependent folding in the #ER, triggering a stress response, ER expansion & cytoplasmic protein aggregation @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/47U6ry0

Disappointed w/new commercial form of #hydroxyurea - Xromi by #RareDiseaseTherapeutics. 👎👎
1. No communication to clinics/ppl living with #sicklecelldisease & what it means for them:
- 10x the💰
- frequent prior auths
2. Safety info discusses side effects in myeloproliferative disease, NOT SCD
Primary #Thrombocythemia, thrombosis treatment
1. Low risk population
Low-dose #aspirin, as a basic treatment, is used to reduce the risk of thrombosis
2. High risk population
#Hydroxyurea can inhibit excessive proliferation of platelets

Thank you @DorisDukeFdn for this beautifully written article and for supporting the care of children with #sicklecell globally
I'm honored to be a part of the team. Let's do this!
