Interspecies Diversity of Osmotic Gradient Deformability of Red Blood Cells in Human and Seven Vertebrate Animal Species

Cells, 2022
Plasma and blood osmolality values show interspecies differences and are strictly regulated. The effect of these factors also has an influence on microrheological parameters, such as red blood cell (RBC) deformability and aggregation.

Dielectric Responses of Cytosolic Water Change with Aging of Circulating Red Blood Cells

Cells
Water molecules in the cytosol of red blood cells (RBCs) may exist in a free or bound state. The ratio between the free and bound water depends on the composition of the cytoplasm, particularly on the hemoglobin concentration.
