IT seems desirable to utter a caveat in reference to Dr. S. H. Wajda's communication on the origin of erythrocytes from striated muscle1. During the last two years, many hundreds of sections of muscles previously traumatized by various means have been studied in great detail in this Department.

Although, the effects of 4-non-ylphenol (4-NP) on fish’s reproductive hormones were assessed in several studies using adult models, however, the effect of this endocrine disruptor on immature fish’s reproductive hormones was not addressed commonly.

On the Shape of the Erythrocyte
A model is postulated which attributes the distinctive biconcave shape of the human erythrocyte to a balance of forces acting on the membrane. The forces considered are electrostatic forces due to a charge distribution on the membrane, a hydrostatic pressure difference acting across the membrane, and forces arising from a constant tension in the ...

Analysis of erythrocytes in oral submucous fibrosis – A morphometric study
Background: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is a chronic progressive scarring oral disease caused due to areca quid chewing. The constituents of areca nut can enter into the circulation by swallowing the liquid mixture of areca quid which evokes oxidative

Erythrocytes and Vascular Function: Oxygen and Nitric Oxide
Erythrocytes regulate vascular function through the modulation of oxygen delivery and the scavenging and generation of nitric oxide (NO). First, hemoglobin inside the red blood cell binds oxygen in the lungs and delivers it to tissues throughout the body

Biochemically altered human erythrocytes as a carrier for targeted delivery of primaquine: an in vitro study [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate human erythrocytes as a carrier for targeted drug delivery of primaquine (PQ). The process of PQ loading in human erythrocytes, as well as the effect of PQ loading on the oxidative status of erythrocytes, was also studied.

Effects of IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8 on erythrocytes, platelets and clot viscoelasticity
Complex interactions exist between cytokines and the interleukin family plays a fundamental role in inflammation. Particularly circulating IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8 are unregulated in systemic and chronic inflammatory conditions.

Erythrocyte polymorphisms associated with a survival advantage to Plasmodium falciparum infection have undergone positive selection. There is a predominance of blood group O in malaria-endemic regions, and several lines of evidence suggest that ABO blood

Effect of Thioridazine on Erythrocytes [PDF]
Background: Thioridazine, a neuroleptic phenothiazine with antimicrobial efficacy is known to trigger anemia. At least in theory, the anemia could result from stimulation of suicidal erythrocyte death or eryptosis, which is characterized by cell shrinkage and by phospholipid scrambling of the cell membrane with phosphatidylserine exposure at the ...
