Stiffness increase of red blood cells during storage
Microsystems & Nanoengineering, 2018 In transfusion medicine, the deformability of stored red blood cells (RBCs) changes during storage in blood banks. Compromised RBC deformability can reduce the transfusion efficiency or intensify transfusion complications, such as sepsis.

Activation of human NK cells by Plasmodium-infected red blood cells.
, 2012 This chapter describes a protocol to assess activation of human NK cells following in vitro stimulation with malaria-infected red blood cells. Activation is assessed by flow cytometry, staining for cell surface expression of CD69 and accumulation of ...

From Erythroblasts to Mature Red Blood Cells: Organelle Clearance in Mammals
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Erythropoiesis occurs mostly in bone marrow and ends in blood stream. Mature red blood cells are generated from multipotent hematopoietic stem cells, through a complex maturation process involving several morphological changes to produce a highly ...

The plasma protein fibrinogen stabilizes clusters of red blood cells in microcapillary flows [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2014 The supply of oxygen and nutrients and the disposal of metabolic waste in the organs depend strongly on how blood, especially red blood cells, flow through the microvascular network. Macromolecular plasma proteins such as fibrinogen cause red blood cells
