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

AlphaFold2 Update and Perspectives

open access: yesBioMedInformatics, 2023
Access to the three-dimensional (3D) structural information of macromolecules is of major interest in both fundamental and applied research. Obtaining this experimental data can be complex, time consuming, and costly.

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.

Analysis of the impact of handling and culture on the expansion and functionality of NK cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes of the innate immune system that play a key role in the elimination of tumor and virus-infected cells. Unlike T cells, NK cell activation is governed by their direct interaction with target cells via the ...

Urinary diagnostic cytology beyond the research of neoplastic cells: Usefulness of erythrocyte morphology evaluation to recognize microhematuria source

open access: yesJournal of Cytology, 2023
Background: Urine cytology is useful to diagnose urinary neoplasms, whereas its role in the study of microhematuria is debatable. Usually, standard urinalysis (dipstick test and sediment examination with bright field microscope) detects the presence of ...

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 ...

The role of corticosterone in the regulation of the cellular composition of chicken blood during the stress reaction [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
The influence of hen layer density on the variability of the number of red blood cells, heterophiles and lymphocytes in the blood, the secretory activity of adrenal glands, estimated by the level of corti-costerone and cortisol, as well as the presence ...

Oxidative stress-induced DNA damage and repair in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells: protective role of hemoglobin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND:DNA repair is a cellular defence mechanism responding to DNA damage caused in large part by oxidative stress. There is a controversy with regard to the effect of red blood cells on DNA damage and cellular response.
