Effects of hemodialysis on blood fatty acids
Physiological Reports, 2020 Omega‐3 (n‐3) fatty acids have beneficial cardiovascular effects, perhaps also in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. A low omega‐3 index is an independent cardiovascular risk factor in end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) dialysis patients.

Erythrocytes in multiple sclerosis: forgotten contributors to the pathophysiology? [PDF]
, 2016 Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease characterised by lymphocytic infiltration of the central nervous system and subsequent destruction of myelin and axons. On the background of a genetic predisposition to autoimmunity, environmental triggers

Erythrocytes and Vascular Function: Oxygen and Nitric Oxide
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 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]
Arch. Pharm. Res. (2011) 34: 563, 2019 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
Scientific Reports, 2016 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.

Cytoadherence and virulence - the case of Plasmodium knowlesi malaria. [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: Cytoadherence of infected red blood cells to brain endothelium is causally implicated in malarial coma, one of the severe manifestations of falciparum malaria.

PLoS Pathogens, 2012 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]
Toxins, 2013 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 ...

Estimation of erythrocyte surface area in mammals [PDF]
Methods Protoc. 2024, 7(1), 11, 2014 Measures of erythrocytes volume and surface are helpful in several physiological studies, both for zoologists and veterinarians. Whilst diameter and volume are assessed with ease from observations of blood smears and complete blood count, respectively, thickness and surface area, instead, are much more difficult to be obtained. The accurate description
