Glycocalyx cleavage boosts erythrocytes aggregation [PDF]
The glycocalyx is a complex layer of carbohydrate and protein molecules that surrounds the cell membrane of many types of mammalian cells. It serves several important functions, including cell adhesion and communication, and maintain cell shape and ...

Size-dependent aggregation of erythrocytes by low molecular weight hyaluronic acids of different sizes: bioactivity and quality control potential [PDF]
IntroductionHyaluronic acid (HA) is a crucial biological molecule whose diverse functions are strongly influenced by its molecular weight. In particular, low molecular weight HA (LMW-HA) fragments—such as HA60 (average 60 kDa), HA35 (average 35 kDa), and

Microplate reader analysis of triatomine saliva effect on erythrocyte aggregation [PDF]
Our hypothesis is that the action of aggregating and disaggregating substances in the blood can be detected and quantified by the Microplate Reader. To ascertain the validity of this hypothesis, we selected two types of blood: one that naturally presents

Intermittent hypoxia training does not change erythrocyte aggregation indicators in young, healthy men [PDF]
BackgroundThe increasing popularity of hypoxic training as a training method to improve physical performance indicates the need to study the effects of this type of intervention on blood morphological and rheological indices, since the adaptive changes ...

Hypoxic Exercise Training Elevates Erythrocyte Aggregation
Pathological erythrocyte aggregation reduces capillary perfusion and oxygen transfer to tissue, which is determined by the negative surface charge on the erythrocyte membrane (intrinsic aggregability) and fibrinogen–erythrocyte interaction (extrinsic ...

Role of fibrinogen–erythrocyte and erythrocyte–erythrocyte adhesion on cardiovascular pathologies
Cardiovascular pathologies are the major cause of death worldwide. Erythrocyte aggregation is an indicator of cardiovascular risk, which is influenced by high plasma fibrinogen levels.
