An overview about erythrocyte membrane [PDF]
Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2010 © 2010 – IOS Press and the authors. All rights reservedIn the sixties and seventies, erythrocytes or red blood cells (RBCs) were extensively studied. Much has been learnt particularly concerning their metabolism and gas transporter function. In the past

Optical tweezer for probing erythrocyte membrane deformability [PDF]
Appl. Phys. Lett. 95, 233703 (2009), 2010 We report that the average rotation speed of optically trapped crenated erythrocytes is direct signature of their membrane deformability. When placed in hypertonic buffer, discocytic erythrocytes are subjected to crenation. The deformation of cells brings in chirality and asymmetry in shape that make them rotate under the scattering force of a linearly

Disorders of the erythrocyte membrane
Italian Journal of Medicine, 2015 Hemolytic anemia due to abnormalities of the erythrocyte membrane comprises an important group of inherited disorders. These include hereditary spherocytosis, hereditary elliptocytosis, hereditary pyropoikilocytosis, and the hereditary stomatocytosis ...

CO2 permeability of the rat erythrocyte membrane and its inhibition [PDF]
Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2021 We have studied the CO2 permeability of the erythrocyte membrane of the rat using a mass spectrometric method that employs 18 O-labelled CO2. The method yields, in addition, the intraerythrocytic carbonic anhydrase activity and the membrane HCO3 ...

Interactions Between Aerolysin, Erythrocytes, and Erythrocyte Membranes [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1975 Aerolysin, a hemolytic and lethal exotoxin of Aeromonas hydrophila , was analyzed for amino acids. Assuming 8 histidine residues/mol, the purified toxic protein has, by summation, a molecular weight of 49,000, a value in agreement with earlier estimates by other methods.

Single particle electron microscopy analysis of the bovine anion exchanger 1 reveals a flexible linker connecting the cytoplasmic and membrane domains. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Anion exchanger 1 (AE1) is the major erythrocyte membrane protein that mediates chloride/bicarbonate exchange across the erythrocyte membrane facilitating CO₂ transport by the blood, and anchors the plasma membrane to the spectrin-based cytoskeleton ...

Rheological Abnormalities in Human Erythrocytes Subjected to Oxidative Inflammation
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Erythrocytes are oxygen carriers and exposed to redox cycle in oxygenation and deoxygenation of hemoglobin. This indicates that circulating erythrocytes are vulnerable to the oxidative injury occurring under the imbalance of redox homeostasis.

Beneficial impact of human placenta extracts on erythrocyte membrane thermostability [PDF]
Trakia Journal of Sciences, 2018 PURPOSE: To study the influence of human placenta extract (HPE) and its individual fractions on the thermal stability of human erythrocyte membrane. METHODS: HPE fractions were isolated by gel chromatography. Thermal hemolysis of erythrocytes, exposed to
