Haptoglobin treatment contributes to regulating nitric oxide signal and reduces oxidative stress in the penis: A preventive treatment for priapism in sickle cell disease
Background: In sickle cell disease (SCD), reduced bioavailability of endothelial NO and cGMP results in reduced expression of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), thus impairing the penile erection control mechanism and resulting in prolonged penile erection (priapism). In SCD, reduced NO bioavailabilit...
