Functional consequences of sphingomyelinase-induced changes in erythrocyte membrane structure. [PDF]
Inflammation enhances the secretion of sphingomyelinases (SMases). SMases catalyze the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin into phosphocholine and ceramide.

Abnormalities of the Erythrocyte Membrane [PDF]
Primary abnormalities of the erythrocyte membrane are characterized by clinical, laboratory, and genetic heterogeneity. Among this group, hereditary spherocytosis patients are more likely to experience symptomatic anemia. Treatment of hereditary spherocytosis with splenectomy is curative in most patients.

Interaction of Catechins with Human Erythrocytes
The aim of this study was to characterize the interaction of chosen catechins ((+)-catechin, (−)-epigallocatechin (EGC), and (−)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)) with human erythrocytes and their protective effects against oxidative damage of

Interaction of Erythrocyte Membranes with Particulates [PDF]
Chrysotile fibers promoted the fusion of human erythrocyte membranes and the hemolysis and fusion of fowl erythrocytes. Amosite and glass fibers did not show the same effect. These findings provide a model for the internalization of the fibers by animal cells.

Role of membrane lipids in the regulation of erythrocytic oxygen-transport function in cardiovascular diseases [PDF]
The composition and condition of membrane lipids, the morphology of erythrocytes, and hemoglobin distribution were explored with the help of laser interference microscopy (LIM) and Raman spectroscopy.

Erythrocyte-erythrocyte aggregation dynamics under shear flow [PDF]
Red blood cells (RBCs) -- erythrocytes -- suspended in plasma tend to aggregate and form rouleaux. During aggregation the first stage consists in the formation of RBC doublets [Blood cells, molecules, and diseases 25, 339 (1999)]. While aggregates are normally dissociated by moderate flow stresses, under some pathological conditions the aggregation ...

A microsieve for leukocyte depletion of erythrocyte concentrates [PDF]
A new ultra thin filtration membrane has been used for leukocyte removal from erythrocyte concentrates. This filtration membrane, an Aquamarijn Microsieve(R), has a high pore density and a narrow pore size distribution and shows good separation behaviour.
