A New Strategy for the Morphological and Colorimetric Recognition of Erythrocytes for the Diagnosis of Forms of Anemia based on Microscopic Color Images of Blood Smears [PDF]
The detection of red blood cells based on morphology and colorimetric appearance is very important in improving hematology diagnostics. There are automatons capable of detecting certain forms, but these have limitations with regard to the formal identification of red blood cells because they consider certain cells to be red blood cells when they are ...

Characterization of a Putative Hemolysin Expressed by Sneathia amnii, a Preterm Birth-associated Pathogen [PDF]
The gram-negative bacteria Sneathia amnii is a poorly-characterized commensal of the female urogenital tract frequently associated with adverse clinical outcomes such as bacterial vaginosis (BV), amnionitis, and preterm labor.

Red blood cells estimation using Hough transform technique [PDF]
The number of red blood cells contributes more to clinical diagnosis with respect to blood diseases. The aim of this research is to produce a computer vision system that can detect and estimate the number of red blood cells in the blood sample image ...

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Clustered Red Blood Cells are observed very frequently in the thin blood smear digital images. Separating clustered Red Blood Cells from the single Red Blood Cells and splitting of clustered Red Blood Cells into single Red Blood Cells is a challenging

A micro-scale simulation of red blood cell passage through symmetric and asymmetric bifurcated vessels [PDF]
Blood exhibits a heterogeneous nature of hematocrit, velocity, and effective viscosity in microcapillaries. Microvascular bifurcations have a significant influence on the distribution of the blood cells and blood flow behavior. This paper presents a simulation study performed on the two-dimensionalmotions and deformation of multiple red blood cells in ...

Vortical flow structures induced by red blood cells in capillaries [PDF]
Knowledge about the flow field of the plasma around the red blood cells in capillary flow is important for a physical understanding of blood flow and the transport of micro- and nanoparticles and molecules in the flowing plasma. We conduct an experimental study on the flow field around red blood cells in capillary flow that are complemented by ...

The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).

Production of hematopoietic cells from umbilical cord blood stem cells for transfusion purposes: Focus on ex vivo generation of red blood cells [PDF]
Cord blood contains a heterogeneous population of stem cells and progenitors and, in addition to transplantation these cells could be used also for ex vivo production of mature cells, as red blood cells (RBC).
