Proposal of Minimal Invasive Shape Memory Alloy Double-Transducer Unit for Blood Analysis or Drug Delivery

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2011
The purpose of this research is to develop minimally invasive medical devices by applying heated actuations of Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) transducers using a medical Ti-Ni alloy in order to enable minimal hypodermic invasive microvolume for either blood ...

Impact of erythrocytes properties on blood surface tension

open access: yesAIMS Biophysics, 2019
Surface tension is a physical phenomenon that occurs as a result of the presence of a cohesive force between molecules of the liquid. Many biological processes depend on wetting and interfacial tension.

Fatty acid composition of brain, retina, and erythrocytes in breast- and formula-fed infants.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1994
Breast-fed infants score better on visual and developmental tests than do formula-fed infants and this has been related to higher concentrations of erythrocyte docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6 omega 3). This prompted an investigation into the relationship

On the cytoadhesion of Plasmodium vivax-infected erythrocytes.

open access: yesJournal of Infectious Diseases, 2010
BACKGROUND Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax are responsible for most of the global burden of malaria. Although the accentuated pathogenicity of P.

Integrated Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analysis of Red Blood Cells from Rainbow Trout Challenged with VHSV Point Towards Novel Immunomodulant Targets

open access: yesVaccines, 2019
Teleost red blood cells (RBCs) are nucleated and therefore can propagate cellular responses to exogenous stimuli. RBCs can mount an immune response against a variety of fish viruses, including the viral septicemia hemorrhagic virus (VHSV), which is one ...

Softlithography in Chemical Sensing – Analytes from Molecules to Cells

open access: yesSensors, 2005
Imprinting is a flexible and straightforward technique to generate selective sensormaterials e.g. for mass-sensitive detection. Inherently, the strategy suits both molecularanalytes and entire micro organisms or cells. Imprinted polyurethanes e.g.

Protein Glutathionylation in Erythrocytes [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 2003
Analysis of antioxidant molecules is potentially important to understanding the role of oxidative stress (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6) in disease, as oxidative damage is accompanied or preceded by their depletion. Reduced glutathione (GSH) is ubiquitous and abundant; it can be oxidized to its disulfide form (GSSG) in response to an oxidative perturbation ...

Adhesion of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes to human cells: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic implications

open access: yesExpert Reviews in Molecular Medicine, 2009
Severe malaria has a high mortality rate (15–20%) despite treatment with effective antimalarial drugs. Adjunctive therapies for severe malaria that target the underlying disease process are therefore urgently required.

The complement receptor 2/factor H fusion protein TT30 protects paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria erythrocytes from complement-mediated hemolysis and C3 fragment.

open access: yesBlood, 2012
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is characterized by complement-mediated intravascular hemolysis because of the lack from erythrocyte surface of the complement regulators CD55 and CD59, with subsequent uncontrolled continuous spontaneous ...
