Interleukin-6 (IL6) and Interleukin-8 (IL8) are cytokines related to general immune function, but within Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) patients, their overproduction tends to cause auto-immune reactions. These vital cytokines engage in the pathophysiology of SCA, but the extent to which they are associated with the genetics of the disease requires further exploration. This research paper seeks to further the study of IL6 and IL8 in SCA patients as well as the possibilities to predict their presence i...
