- MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: Sickle cell anemia is an inherited blood disease that affects your red blood cells. It’s one of the most common and usually most severe forms of a group of red blood cell disorders, called sickle cell disease. In order to survive, your body needs red blood cells to supply oxygen to its tissues. Red blood cells are made inside the center of your bones, called bone marrow. There, immature cells, called blood stem cells, can divide to make all types of blood cells, including red blood cells. Normal red blood cells are disc shaped. Each of them contains protein molecules, called hemoglobin, that carry oxygen, Round, flexible red blood cells flow easily through your bloodstream and pick up oxygen in your lungs. In tiny air sacs in the lungs, called alveoli, oxygen moves into the blood and attaches to the hemoglobin in red blood cells. Then, the red blood cells deliver oxygen to cells throughout the body. In sickle cell anemia, there is a problem with your hemoglobin that makes your red blood cells sickle-shaped instead of round. This is caused by a defective gene that is passed from both parents to children through genetic material in your cells, called DNA. DNA is made up of sections, called genes. Two of the genes, called alpha-globin and beta-globin, contain the “blueprints” for making the hemoglobin proteins. In sickle cell anemia, the beta-globin gene has changed, or mutated. This mutation leads to the formation of an abnormal hemoglobin protein, called hemoglobin S. Hemoglobin S forms into rigid strands inside your red blood cells, which causes the red blood cell to be sickle shaped. Sickle cells can block blood flow, and can cause pain and tissue damage. And, while normal red blood cells last ninety to one hundred and twenty days, sickle cells only last ten to twenty days. Your body may not be able to keep up with how fast the cells are destroyed. As a result, your blood has less red blood cells than normal. This condition is called anemia. The symptoms of sickle cell anemia vary from person to person, but may include episodes of pain in your body parts, such as your hands and feet, lower back, chest, and abdomen; a yellow tint in the whites of the eyes and skin, called jaundice; and feeling tired due to anemia. Over time, sickle cell anemia can lead to complications, such as severe pain; and damage to your eyes, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and joints. Damage to your spleen, an organ that makes immune cells, can increase your risk of infections. The risk for sickle cell anemia is highest among people with ancestors from sub-Saharan Africa; Hispanic areas of South America, the Caribbean, and Central America; Saudi Arabia; India; and Mediterranean countries. To find out more about sickle cell anemia, talk to your healthcare provider.

19 year old sickle cell warrior here! This video is very updated. I was diagnosed with sickle cell disease at the age of three. Drinking plenty of water, eating healthy, taking daily medications and the grace of God has kept me going. My mum started to know more about my disease when she had a Google phone. I was weak when growing up, but it's much better now. My eyes have already been infected by the disease, I'm now on lens. I'm in Medical school now, hoping to help the future generation, so they will not suffer what I/we have already went through. Love ♥️ to all my fellow warriors..... We are strong!
❤
Can this be possible that you have sickle cells in your body but no symptoms or any problem. When I was born doctor told that I have 35% sickle cells in my body but I'm healthy and yeah I never ate any medicine related to this so is this possible?
@@lilsyy16 I do have symptoms. I usually have sickle cell crisis. Since I was born, I was not active like my age mates. My mum said I used to get sick frequently. When I was able to talk, I will always tell her my back hurts and I always had a grumpy face, not knowing that I was suffering from sickle cell crisis
@@101nevergiveup Actually my back hurts too but if we talk about being sick then I don't think I get sick regularly cuz it's been a year since I got last sick. The symptom I have is that my hand trembles a lot if I do any sort of workout or climb stairs or get devastated my hands and legs starts to shake i.e tremors did it happen with you too?
@@lilsyy16 yes! They do happen to me too. There was one time my whole leg was trembling for days! It almost took a week for it to stop. Due to that, I was unable to go to college
I had this disease at the age of eight, my eyes were yellow, and I was feeling tired and painful. My disease was diagnosed and treatment began. Healthy eating played a major role in my recovery. The doctor advised me to stay away from some foods such as foods that contains sugar, tea, coffee, and sweets, and he advised me to eat vegetables, red meat, and liver and everything that contains proteins, and I take a lot of rest, and within a year in this way I started to feel better until I recovered, and now I am 37 years old, in good health.
I would like to connect, please. My daughter is suffering from this. In fact, she is in bed due to this right now.
How true? Did u say DAT ur genotype changed?
Hlooo sir..
Great to hear that.
Ur lying
@@JesusrevealedGlorified35 😢 sorry to hear.. how's her health now.. plz connect bcoz my relative's daughter have same disease
Sickle cell warrior here been fighting this horrible disease since I was 3 months old we need to talk about this way more to many people suffer in silence
too*
I just lost my brother who was suffering from sickle cell anemia.May his soul RIP.
I’m sorry for your loss.
hope u feel better
I’m sorry for ur lost. Suffering from sickle cell isn’t easy, nor fun. U miss out on so many activities because of it. Nobody wants to talk about how deep this can really go, which is y they end it with “chronic pain”.
Sorry for your loss 😞
Rip
It is worth knowing that the sickle cell mutation is not just an ‘error’. It actually confers increased resistance to malaria parasites which is why the mutation has survived in the geographical areas stated and why sickle cell anaemia is still relatively widespread.
That makes sense. I was wondering why such a "bad" mutation would survive.
No wonder why this disease comes from?
@@ollielon5926 malaria is prevalent in those areas and cause a high amount of deaths. Sickle cell/low hemoglobin is natural selection.
I knew little about the disease until my own children were diagnosed with the disease, what I can comment is thanks for the information, every 19th June of every year is a world sickle cell awareness day yet little has been done by countries to eliminate the disease through awareness. I have two warriors one 19 yrs and another 10yrs but it is not a walk in the park. I always pray that one day this will end for the better for my children and others who have the same condition. thanks
Tell me how I lived with this for 30 years and was never explained my condition like this. Only knew the basics
I got sickle cell and I like looking up thing’s about it for I can know what and what not to do but great video
I love nucleus when I grow up I want to become a scientist like them.
You can do it!
@@nucleusmedicalmedia 😉ujm
omg same
@@nucleusmedicalmedia I am developing a mathematical hypothesis to explain the C, N, O and H element cycles in the body. I have a question which its answer can help me to validate and/or modify my hypothesis.
How do we know that there is a Fe atom in the Hemoglobin, or what is the scientific method that detected/isolated the Fe from Hemoglobin?
My calculations is pointing to the element Phosphorus.
If it’s your dream, nothing should stop you
You make me always understand better😌😌 than my school teacher..

Böyle yayınlar yapın işe yarasın bilgilenelim teşekkürler
Been having this sickness ever since I existed
Edit: btw I had to extract the spleen when I was about 6-10 years old because it was absorbing the blood and inflating was this the right choice and is there any special things I have to do now I'm 18 yes I was doing better ever since it was extracted but I just wanna ask and see if there is anything I just don't know
Very insightful.
Even though I already graduated this year from nursing school, it’s always entertaining to go back and watch these types of videos 💙

Good informations
Your videos too good please say me how to create this types of video
This types of video very perfect to understand the concept
My neighbors kid just passed from this yesterday, and yea, I am from west Africa. This is a terrible disease
In Canada and the USA they know how to deal with this. West Africa needs to get up with the times. I know a woman who has this and has two children.
@@douglagyal4364 we kinda know how to deal with some cases of it, in this case it is said the parents were negligent of the kids condition, he wasn’t getting proper medication. All this came out after he passed Ofcuz, when it was too late to do anything about, I didn’t even know he was sick. But you’re right, we do need to stepup, this disease kills so many kids here
Literally very few people in Sakha Republic and Siberia have this disease. This disease mostly come from Mediterranean countries and Caribbean islands. These diseases are the least likely to affect people living in cold regions. My surrounding’s current temperature is -31,7°C.
@@gomezmario.f hello, my daughter is 10yrs old and she is suffering terribly with this disease . Please how can we treat or take good care of her
@@kuluferdinand8762 Keep praying and searching for a cure online. I have seen comments on other videos of people knowing a cure. Something involving zinc and other things. Don’t give up on the search.
very good video i understood now everything is fine really tqq so muchhhhhh ❤️
Thank you very much for the video with kindness and respect
im overthing rn...thank you for this information
Though it's an old vid yet it refresh again all the infos😁
Nucleus is the best channel ever
How does a person know tht he has got sickle cell anaemia
Bcz the symptoms are very similar to other diseases also does parents find out abt the mutation after the child birth or ?
when you have these symptoms you should concern with your doctor and then they test your genetic report and tell you that if you have or not
U get tested as a baby and that's how u know. If not go have your lab draw the sooner the better .
Great video!
Bahut achha video hai bana hai but usme Hindi bhi bola jaata toh achha hota ✨👍
😢thank you
thank you so much for valueble information
Very useful🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Thank you...plz keep it up
Thanku for sickle cell anemia
I have the trait, and it's nice to know that Iam protected from Malaria despite that I do get tired fast from running
thank u so much sir
Great 👍🩺♥️
toma tu like buen hombre por enseñarme ingles y biologia a la vez
My haemoglobin always lower than normal rate and makes me feel so fatigue , I wonder why this keep happening!!
I take iron tablets regularly
Iron tablet s are not good for you at all.......
You shouldn't take iron tablets AT ALL
thankss
Sickle cell anemia appeared as an adapatation against malaria, since sickle cells can't be paarasitised by the Plasmodium parasite.
Very nice and beautful video.. Thank you ❤️😘
Good infermation 👏🏻🙏🙏
Hey, at least they have some advantage when it comes to malaria
Pls what are the advantages do they have when it comes to malaria.. I would love to know.. Thanks
@@chidiobiukwu5728 You have a better defense agaisnt it so you are less likely to get infected and if you get infected you are most likely to recover faster and fight the infection better
Its short and effective, thank you so much

I’m not too sure. I still believe you can take vitamin supplements as a treatment.
Nope
Sickle cell disease is a lifelong illness. A bone marrow transplant is currently the only cure for sickle cell disease. Gene therapy is also being explored as another potential cure, but there are other effective treatments that can reduce symptoms and prolong life.
Thank you
Nice but to do it in a comparison with other types of anemia such as favism in one video will be better
Your channel can make an interested biology student

My roommate had them she didn't want anyone to know till her mom told me she didn't like that the mother was talking about her sickness. On june 4th me and her were cooking she started asking me about stock and what share I buy , I told her I will write them down and give it to her 3 days went by I didn't see her I slide the list under her door I'm thinking she is in the bathroom since the water was running but its 4 of us in the house, I left on the 11th morning went up to Massachusetts around 10:30pm I got a call my landlord was like your room or her room smells. I'm like ewwu I probably forgot the fish in there , he went on to say I figured it wasn't yours cause we've seen u .ok. well it was her room she passed away. I was shocked .
Painful 😣😣😣 so sorry for your loss.. i hope her mum is ok.
What can I do to be having the red cell always to avoid the pains thanks
need more information about the disease
Nice information.

Is there a drug or any type of medication that reduces this yellow tint in eyes and skin? The tint in my eye makes me very insecure to look at people.
Maybe liver or something bad bro. Go to doctor
If you have sickle cell anemia it's very very important to super hydrate with water. That will flush out the bilirubin in your blood. I have 3 children with this and it's a sign that enough water is not being consumed or they're in a very significant pain crisis.
It's very nice clear explanation. Please help us to explain the iron deficiency anaemia as well... it will be very helpful for us
Excellent
Thanks!

This medical animation provides an overview of sickle cell anemia, an inherited blood disease that affects the shape and function of red blood cells. Red blood cells are important because they carry oxygen throughout the body. In sickle cell anemia, the hemoglobin protein within the red blood cells is abnormal due to a mutation in the beta-globin gene. This leads to the formation of rigid strands of hemoglobin within the cell, causing the red blood cells to take on a sickle shape. These sickle-shaped cells can block blood flow, causing pain and tissue damage. Sickle cells also have a shorter lifespan than normal red blood cells, which can result in anemia. Symptoms of sickle cell anemia can vary but may include pain, jaundice, and fatigue. Complications of the disease can include severe pain and damage to various organs. People with ancestors from certain regions, including sub-Saharan Africa and parts of South America and the Mediterranean, are at higher risk for sickle cell anemia. If you are concerned about sickle cell anemia, talk to your healthcare provider for more information.
Congrats 6m.
Explanation is perfect except the Map of India that you showed in the last. I respectfully urge you to correct in your upcoming videos.
How best do one handle an SC child(SC genotype)
Like every SS however they have less severe symptoms especially the anaemia
The best way to handle such a child would be to have a blood test and get reports from the person who did this test. They should also consume adequate iron mineral to maintain adequate levels hemoglobin inside their body despite the mutation which prevents the body from getting sufficient oxygen. And they should optionally use medical oxygen.
What should we study in order to become scientist
One of any subject in college
You have shown wrong map of India
uh oh anemia didn't know that's why sickle cell anemia exists
Idk why I thought jaundice was called bilirubin
Every time I dream about that and I wake up and I smack the pillow on my face because I thought that Anemia comes to my Britney Brooks can I feel like throwing My pillow
How to know if one has sicle cell anaemia
Take a sickle cell blood test
