Animal Admin To determine whether hydroxyurea would improve anemia and/or prevent or diminish the development of organ damage in the absence of HbF induction, hydroxyurea, at doses of 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, and 100 mg/kg, or vehicle is administered five days per week to SCD mice.

In Vitro Hydroxyurea is used in a number of myeloproliferative, neoplastic, HIV, and non-hematological diseases. Treatment of cells in primary culture with 30 μM hydroxyurea for 96 hours significantly increases the fractional HbF content. The Gγ: Aγ- globin mRNA is induced 0.30- to 8-fold in vitro. Hydroxyurea has been shown to block HIV-1 reverse transcription and/or replication in quiescent peripheral blood mononuclear cells and macrophages.
In Vivo Hydroxyurea therapy producs consistent reductions in WBC and ANC without improvement in anemia over 17 weeks
Hydroxyurea at 50mg/kg produces a reduced white blood cell count, absolute neutrophil count and no improvement in anemia compared to vehicle treated sickle cell mice.
