摘要：
Presented are mechanism based compositions and methods for treatment of SCD and SCD associated symptoms and disorders, particularly increased RBC sickling, HbS polymerization, hemolysis, tissue congestion and disruption and organ damage or failure in a mammal. The disclosed methods feature the identification of the heretofore unknown role of adenosine levels and signaling in the development of SCD and SCD associated symptoms and disorders. This discovery has lead to the identification of compositions for use as therapies for SCD and SCD associated disorders and symptoms in a mammal.
