Metabolic Influences Modulating Erythrocyte Deformability and Eryptosis

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Many factors in the surrounding environment have been reported to influence erythrocyte deformability. It is likely that some influences represent reversible changes in erythrocyte rigidity that may be involved in physiological regulation, while others ...

The Relationship Between Aggregation and Deformability of Red Blood Cells in Health and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
The molecular organization of the membrane of the red blood cell controls cell morphology and function and is thereby a main determinant of red blood cell homeostasis in the circulation.

THE RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF BLOOD IN THE MOST ACUTE STAGE OF ISCHEMIC STROKE AND THEIR RELATION TO THE SEVERITY OF NEUROLOGICAL IMPAIRMENT

open access: yesБюллетень сибирской медицины, 2013
The study evaluated the rheological parameters of blood: blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, hematocrit, red blood cell aggregation and deformability. The severity of the patients was assessed by clinical scales:Glasgowcoma scale, the scale NIHSS, Barthel

New-Generation Ektacytometry Study of Red Blood Cells in Different Hemoglobinopathies and Thalassemia

open access: yesThalassemia Reports, 2023
Next-generation ektacytometry provided by the osmoscan module of the Laser Optical Rotational Red Cell Analyser (LoRRca) MaxSis is, so far, one of the best complementary diagnostic tools for congenital rare anaemias due to red blood cell defects. Osmotic

cAMP-Signalling Regulates Gametocyte-Infected Erythrocyte Deformability Required for Malaria Parasite Transmission. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Blocking Plasmodium falciparum transmission to mosquitoes has been designated a strategic objective in the global agenda of malaria elimination. Transmission is ensured by gametocyte-infected erythrocytes (GIE) that sequester in the bone marrow and at ...

Changes in Hematological and Hemorheological Parameters Following Mild COVID-19: A 4-Month Follow-Up Study

open access: yesHematology Reports, 2023
Background: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was described to affect red blood cells (RBC) in both severe and mild disease courses. The aim of this study was to investigate whether hematological and hemorheological changes that were previously ...

Red Blood Cell Vitamin C Concentration and Its Effect on Deformability in Pediatric Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yes, 2023
Red cell rigidity is common in sickle cell disease (SCD). The contribution of oxidative stress on deformability remains unknown. This study investigated red blood cell (RBC) vitamin C concentrations in pediatric SCD (n=43) compared with healthy controls (

Association of the Red Cell Distribution Width with Red Blood Cell Deformability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The red cell distribution width (RDW) is a component of the automated complete blood count (CBC) that quantifies heterogeneity in the size of circulating erythrocytes. Higher RDW values reflect greater variation in red blood cell (RBC) volumes and are associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. The mechanisms underlying this
