KCl cotransport (KCC) activation by cell swelling and pH was compared in sickle (SS) and normal (AA) red blood cells (RBCs). KCC fluxes had the same relationship to mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) in SS and AA RBCs when normalized to the maximal volumestimulated (VSmax) flux (MCHC < 270 g/L [27 g/dL]). Acid-stimulated (pH 6.9) KCC flux in SS RBCs was 60% to 70% of VSmax KCC ver...
RBCs from patients with hemolytic anemia due to pyruvate kinase (PK) deficiency are characterized by a decreased total adenine and pyridine nucleotide content. Because phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) is a precursor of both adenine and pyridine nucleotides, we investigated the ability of intact PK-deficient RBCs to accumulate PRPP. The rate of PRPP formation in normal RBCs (n = 1 1 ) was 2.89...
methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mpeg) with molecular mass of 5 kda activated with succinimidyl carbonate and cyanuric chloride, separately was covalently attached to human red blood cells (rbcs). inhibition of agglutination by blood-type specific antisera (anti-d) was employed to evaluate the effect of the polymer coating. the remaining single cells after incubation with anti-d sera were counted...
The development in the field of medicine has been immense in the past few decades. As the rate of diseases in humans as well as accidents is increasing, there is a constant need of the blood for the transfusion. The number of blood donors is limited, so the blood needs to be stored. A great care is needed to preserve the blood components specially RBCs. The integrity and physiology of the RBCs ...
INTRODUCTION Storage of human red blood cells (RBCs) began around 1910 when the anticoagulant properties of citrate were discovered. Over the last century, RBC storage techniques were improved so patients can receive healthy RBCs after longer storage periods. Today, about 80 million transfusions per year are performed worldwide [1,2]. Many parameters, such as temperature and nutrient concentrat...
Ability of Plasmodium falciparum to invade Southeast Asian ovalocytes varies between parasite lines.
Plasmodium falciparum, the causative agent of the most lethal form of human malaria, uses multiple ligand-receptor interactions to invade host red blood cells (RBCs). We studied the invasion of P falciparum into abnormal RBCs from humans carrying the Southeast Asian ovalocytosis (SAO) trait. One particular parasite line, 3D7-A, invaded these cells efficiently, whereas all other lines studied in...
High frequency of erythrocyte (red blood cell [RBC]) genetic disorders such as sickle cell trait, thalassemia trait, homozygous hemoglobin C (Hb-C), and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in regions with high incidence of Plasmodium falciparum malaria and case-control studies support the protective role of those conditions. Protection has been attributed to defective parasite g...
Red blood cells (RBCs) can be cleared from circulation when alterations in their size, shape, and deformability are detected. This function is modulated by the spleen-specific structure of the interendothelial slit (IES). Here, we present a unique physiological framework for development of prognostic markers in RBC diseases by quantifying biophysical limits for RBCs to pass through the IES, usi...
It has been shown that certain dogs have erythrocytes characterized by an inherited high concentration of reduced glutathione (GSH), five to seven times the normal level (high-GSH RBCs). We examined whether increased GSH in dog erythrocytes leads to increased protection against oxidative damage induced by acetylphenylhydrazine (APH) and/or 4-aminophenyl disulfide (4-AD). When erythrocytes were ...
In paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) hemolytic anemia is due mainly to deficiency of the complement regulator CD59 on the surface of red blood cells (RBCs). Eculizumab, an antibody that targets complement fraction 5 (C5), has proven highly effective in abolishing complement-mediated intravascular hemolysis in PNH; however, the hematologic benefit varies considerably among patients. In t...
