  • Apoptosis in thalassemia major reduced by a butyrate derivative 
    El-Beshlawy A.; Seoud H.; Ibrahim A.; Youssry I.; Gabre H.; Isma'eel H.; Aoun E.; Taher A. (BASELALLSCHWILERSTRASSE 10, CH-4009 BASEL, SWITZERLAND, 2005)
    Background and Objectives: In cases of β-thalassemia major, apoptosis appears to be greatly enhanced in the early-stage erythroid precursors in the bone marrow leading to ineffective erythropoiesis. L-Carnitine is found ...
  • Diastolic dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension in sickle cell anemia: Is there a role for L-carnitine treatment? 
    El-Beshlawy A.; Abd El Raouf E.; Mostafa F.; Talaat M.; Isma'eel H.; Aoun E.; Hoffbrand A.V.; Taher A. (BASELALLSCHWILERSTRASSE 10, CH-4009 BASEL, SWITZERLAND, 2006)
    Clinical manifestations of cardiovascular abnormalities in patients with sickle cell (SC) anemia are well documented. Many variables were assessed in our study before and after administration of L-carnitine to randomly ...
  • Effect of L-carnitine on the physical fitness of thalassemic patients 
    El-Beshlawy A.; El Accaoui R.; Abd El-Sattar M.; El-Deen M.H.G.; Youssry I.; Shaheen N.; Hamdy M.; El-Ghamrawy M.; Taher A. (NEW YORK233 SPRING STREET, NEW YORK, NY 10013 USA, 2007)
