The Red Blood Cells on the Move! [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Following the steps of the founders of modern red blood cell (RBC) research (e.g., Ørskov, 1935; Wilbrandt, 1937; Cohn and Cohn, 1939; Ponder, 1948; Pauling et al., 1949), we answer to the growing need of a platform to share and discuss the new findings, argue and move forward in our understanding of these amazing cells.

Red Blood Cell Magnetophoresis [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2003
The existence of unpaired electrons in the four heme groups of deoxy and methemoglobin (metHb) gives these species paramagnetic properties as contrasted to the diamagnetic character of oxyhemoglobin. Based on the measured magnetic moments of hemoglobin and its compounds, and on the relatively high hemoglobin concentration of human erythrocytes, we ...

Shape-Shifted Red Blood Cells: A Novel Red Blood Cell Stage? [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2018
Primitive nucleated erythroid cells in the bloodstream have long been suggested to be more similar to nucleated red cells of fish, amphibians, and birds than the red cells of fetal and adult mammals. Rainbow trout Ficoll-purified red blood cells (RBCs) cultured in vitro undergo morphological changes, especially when exposed to stress, and enter a new ...

Blood parameter changes during stopover in a long-distance migratory shorebird, the bar-tailed godwit Limosa lapponica taymyrensis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Bar-tailed godwits migrate from West African wintering sites to breeding areas in northern Russia with only one stopover. We compared hematocrit (Hct), blood hemoglobin concentration (Hb), and mean cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHb; a measure of the ...

Red Blood Cells: Chasing Interactions [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Human red blood cells (RBC) are highly differentiated cells that have lost all organelles and most intracellular machineries during their maturation process. RBC are fundamental for the nearly all basic physiologic dynamics and they are key cells in the body's respiratory system by being responsible for the oxygen transport to all cells and tissues ...

Continuous Percoll Gradient Centrifugation of Erythrocytes—Explanation of Cellular Bands and Compromised Age Separation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
(1) Background: When red blood cells are centrifuged in a continuous Percoll-based density gradient, they form discrete bands. While this is a popular approach for red blood cell age separation, the mechanisms involved in banding were unknown.

Following red blood cells in a pulmonary capillary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The red blood cells or erythrocytes are biconcave shaped cells and consist mostly in a membrane delimiting a cytosol with a high concentration in hemoglobin.

The unsuspected "bodyguards" of red blood cells [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
Transferrin is the main intrabody carrier of iron. An in-depth analysis of the struc- ture, conformation distribution and functions of this protein allowed us to predict its unsuspected “non-canonical” function in the metabolism of mature red blood cells.
