Figure 1 (A) Glomerulus from a patient with sickle cell disease (right) is much larger than one from an age-matched control (left) at the same magnification. (B) Glomerular area indicated on the ordinate is significantly larger in sickle cell patients than control. From Ref. 13.

Figure 2 Compared to normal, the transgenic mouse model of sickle cell disease produces higher levels of ethane, a measure of the production of reactive oxygen species. This increase is most evident after the animals are reoxygenated (▪) following hypoxia; () the baseline period. From Ref. 67.

Figure 3 Emigration of leukocytes is greater following hypoxia/reoxygenation in the transgenic mouse model of sickle cell disease () than in controls (▪). From Ref. 14.
