Haemolysis in PNH: Depletion of Nitric Oxide

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria

Abstract

The lack of complement regulation on paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) red cells renders these cells extremely sensitive to complement-mediated lysis resulting in free haemoglobin release. Nitric oxide induces a coordinated programme of cellular events that promote blood flow and maintain smooth muscle tone. Nitric oxide reacts with haem groups quickly and irreversibly. In situations of intravascular haemolysis, as seen in PNH, nitric oxide will be rapidly depleted leading to systemic symptoms and complications. These include symptoms of smooth muscle dystonia such as abdominal pain, dysphagia and erectile dysfunction. It is also likely to contribute to significant fatigue. Complications such as thrombosis and pulmonary hypertension can also occur due to the contribution of depletion of nitric oxide.
