Erythrocyte ‘Feierzeit’ reaction: Novel filamentous and vesicular response to n‐butyl acetate
Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Human erythrocytes (red blood cells; RBCs) undergo spontaneous disassembly after several hours of exposure to n‐butyl acetate (nBA). Images of the morphological changes were captured in time‐lapse sequences using differential interference contrast (DIC) light microscopy.

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Objectives Hypoxic/hypocapnic (HH) treatment and storage conditions have been shown to reduce oxidative stress and improve red blood cell (RBC) quality. This study aimed to validate a good manufacturing practice HH RBC product for obtaining the licence for routine use in patients, by comparison with normoxic RBCs both without ...

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I
