Controlled Coffee Intake Enhances Erythrocyte Deformability, Na,K-ATPase Activity, and GSH/GSSG Ratio in Healthy Young Adults [PDF]
BiomedicinesBackground: Published studies suggest that regular coffee consumption may reduce the risk of various diseases. However, many of these studies relied on questionnaire-based data, limiting their ability to identify the specific biological mechanisms behind

Dexmedetomidine protects against lipid peroxidation and erythrocyte deformability alterations in experimental hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury [PDF]
Libyan Journal of Medicine, 2012 Background: Hepatic ischemia–reperfusion injury is a common clinical problem in hepatic surgery and transplantation. Several cellular and tissue structural and functional alterations are observed in such injury.

Reduced erythrocyte deformability associated with hypoargininemia during Plasmodium falciparum malaria. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2014 The mechanisms underlying reduced red blood cell (RBC) deformability during Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) malaria remain poorly understood. Here, we explore the possible involvement of the L-arginine and nitric oxide (NO) pathway on RBC deformability in Pf ...

Erythrocyte deformability correlates with microvascular ischemia and disease severity in diabetic retinopathy [PDF]
Journal of Diabetes InvestigationAims Impaired red blood cell (RBC) deformability is a potential contributor to microvascular dysfunction in diabetes. This study aimed to determine the association between erythrocyte deformability and the severity of diabetic retinopathy (DR), focusing ...

Erythrocyte deformability and psoriasis
Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2013 Psoriasis, a systemic immunomediated disorder, is associated with increased cardiovascular risk, although the contribution of rheological alteration to this risk has been seldom analyzed. We have determined erythrocyte deformability in 91 patients with psoriasis and in 101 sex- and age-matched control subjects by means of the Rheodyn SSD, along with ...

Melatonin Pre-Treatment Protects Erythrocytes Against Subsequent Oxidative Damage [PDF]
MoleculesResearch on the effects of melatonin on erythrocyte deformability has yielded mixed results. While some studies reported improvements, others found no effect, and a few even noted a deterioration in deformability.

Aging in Normotensive and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats: Focus on Erythrocyte Properties
Biology, 2023 Erythrocyte deformability, crucial for oxygen delivery to tissues, plays an important role in the etiology of various diseases. As the factor maintaining the erythrocyte deformability, nitric oxide (NO) has been identified.

Diseased Erythrocyte Enrichment Based on I-Shaped Pillar DLD Arrays
MicromachinesEnrichment of erythrocytes is a necessary step in the diagnosis of blood diseases. Due to the high deformability and viscosity of erythrocytes, they cannot be regarded as stable point-like solids, so the influence of their deformability on fluid dynamics
