illustration of red blood cells in thalassaemia
Thalassaemia. Illustration of distorted red blood cells in the inherited blood disorder of thalass- aemia. Here, affected red blood cells (erythro- cytes) are variously shaped and fragile; they rapidly haemolyse (break up) as they move through the body. Thalassaemia is a fault in production of haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying pigment in red blood cells that is formed in bone marrow. Alpha- and beta-thalassaemia refers to the type of haemo- globin affected. Symptoms of this disease include anaemia, fatigue, jaundice; bones may grow abnor- mally as the bone marrow expands to produce more blood cells. Treatment with blood transfusions is common. The disease may be fatal

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intricate illustration of red blood cells affected by thalassaemia, a hereditary blood disorder. The image vividly portrays the distorted and fragile nature of these erythrocytes, which rapidly break up as they navigate through the body. Thalassaemia is characterized by a fault in the production of haemoglobin, the vital oxygen-carrying pigment formed in bone marrow. Both alpha- and beta-thalassaemia refer to specific types of haemoglobin that are impacted by this condition. As a result, individuals with thalassaemia experience symptoms such as anaemia, fatigue, and jaundice. Furthermore, abnormal bone growth may occur due to expanded bone marrow attempting to produce more blood cells. In order to manage this disease effectively, blood transfusions have become a common treatment method for those affected. Without proper intervention and care, thalassaemia can be fatal. This remarkable artwork not only serves as an educational tool but also highlights the significance of medical research and healthcare advancements in understanding complex disorders like thalassaemia. By shedding light on this condition through visual representation, Science Photo Library contributes valuable knowledge that aids both medical professionals and patients alike in their journey towards improved health outcomes.
