Deoxygenation Affects Composition of Membrane-Bound Proteins in Human Erythrocytes
Background/Aims: ATP release from erythrocyte plays a key role in hypoxia-induced elevation of blood flow in systematic circulation. We have previously shown that hemolysis contributes to erythrocyte ATP release triggered by several stimuli, including ...

Human erythrocytes selectively bind and enrich infectious HIV-1 virions. [PDF]
Although CD4(+) cells represent the major target for HIV infection in blood, claims of complement-independent binding of HIV-1 to erythrocytes and the possible role of Duffy blood group antigen, have generated controversy.

Membrane transport of anandamide through resealed human red blood cell membranes
The use of resealed red blood cell membranes (ghosts) allows the study of the transport of a compound in a nonmetabolizing system with a biological membrane.

Binding of anandamide to bovine serum albumin
The endocannabinoid anandamide is of lipid nature and may thus bind to albumin in the vascular system, as do fatty acids. The knowledge of the free water-phase concentration of anandamide is essential for the investigations of its transfer from the ...

Cholestatriene and ergostatetraene as in vivo and in vitro membrane and lipoprotein probes.
The fluorescent cholesterol analogues, cholesta-5,7,9(11)triene-3-beta-ol (I) and ergosta-5,7,9(11)-22-tetraene-3-beta-ol (II), have been shown to be readily incorporated by various tissues and lipoproteins in rabbits maintained on diets supplemented ...

Effect of an unstirred layer on the membrane permeability of anandamide
To study the effect of an unstirred layer (UL), we have investigated the exchange efflux kinetics of anandamide at 0°C, pH 7.3, from albumin-free as well as from albumin-filled human red blood cell ghosts to media of various BSA concentrations ([BSA]o ...

A robust mass spectrometry method for rapid profiling of erythrocyte ghost membrane proteomes
Background Red blood cell (RBC) physiology is directly linked to many human disorders associated with low tissue oxygen levels or anemia including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, congenital heart disease, sleep apnea and sickle cell anemia ...

Bispyridinium Compounds Inhibit Both Muscle and Neuronal Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in Human Cell Lines. [PDF]
Standard treatment of poisoning by organophosphorus anticholinesterases uses atropine to reduce the muscarinic effects of acetylcholine accumulation and oximes to reactivate acetylcholinesterase (the effectiveness of which depends on the specific ...

Baboon erythrocyte ghosts contain beta-adrenergic receptors
We have used the beta-adrenergic antagonist [3H]dihydroalprenolol [( 3H]DHA) to identify binding sites on the erythrocyte membrane of the primate Papio ursinus. Analysis of the saturation isotherm revealed binding to be saturable with a maximal number of
