Chronic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and repeated vaso-occlusive crises (VOC) characterize the condition, all of which contribute considerably to morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this paper is to elucidate potential molecular pathways and interactions involving eosinophils in the context of SCA severity. A thorough literature analysis was done to collect existing evidence on the molecular interactions of eosinophils in inflammatory disorders, with an emphasis on their probable involvement in SCA. The findings indicate that eosinophils may contribute to SCA severity via several routes. Eosinophil degranulation produces cytotoxic proteins such major basic protein (MBP) and eosinophil peroxidase (EPO), which can increase oxidative stress and endothelial damage. Furthermore, eosinophils interact with adhesion molecules, causing vascular inflammation and aiding in the attachment of sickled red blood cells to the endothelium. Eosinophils appear to play multiple roles in the pathogenesis of SCA, including inflammation, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction. While direct studies on eosinophils in SCA are sparse, the molecular insights gained from this review indicate their possible role in disease severity.                    Peer Review History: Received 8 February 2025;   Reviewed 6 March 2025; Accepted 19 April; Available online 15 May 2025 05 15 2025 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 10.22270/ujpr.v10i2.1316 https://ujpronline.com/index.php/journal/article/view/1316 https://ujpronline.com/index.php/journal/article/download/1316/1855 https://ujpronline.com/index.php/journal/article/download/1316/1855 https://ujpronline.com/index.php/journal/article/download/1316/1869 https://ujpronline.com/index.php/journal/article/download/1316/1883
