Microvascular and systemic responses to novel PEGylated carboxyhaemoglobin-based oxygen carrier in a rat model of vaso-occlusive crisis

Hypoxia drives sickle cell disease (SCD) by inducing sickle cell haemoglobin to polymerize and deform red blood cells (RBC) into the sickle shape. A novel carboxyhaemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (PEG-COHb; PP-007) promotes unsickling in vitro by relieving RBC hypoxia. An in vivo rat model of vaso-oc...
