Decreased deformability of erythrocytes from smokers [PDF]

Blood, 1981
Abstract The deformability of erythrocytes from smoking and non-smoking human subjects was examined by filtration through 3-mu pores and capillary viscometry of cell suspensions. In both cases, small but significant differences were found between the two groups that are consistent with a reduction in the surface area-to-volume ratio and ...

Plasmodium falciparum ligand binding to erythrocytes induce alterations in deformability essential for invasion

eLife, 2017
The most lethal form of malaria in humans is caused by Plasmodium falciparum. These parasites invade erythrocytes, a complex process involving multiple ligand-receptor interactions.

Role of Plasma Membrane at Dielectric Relaxations and Intermembrane Interaction in Human Erythrocytes

Membranes, 2023
Dielectric relaxations at 1.4 MHz (βsp) and 9 MHz (γ1sp) on the erythrocyte spectrin network were studied by dielectric spectroscopy using dense suspensions of erythrocytes and erythrocyte ghost membranes, subjected to extraction with up to 0.2% volume ...
