Deformability is an essential feature of blood cells (RBCs) that enables them to travel
through even the smallest capillaries of the human body. Deformability is a function of (i) …

Erythrocytes (RBCs) are extremely sensitive cells, and although they do not have nuclei and
mitochondria, are important health indicators. This is particularly true because, during …

Red blood cells can be stored in liquid suspension in approved additive solutions for
periods up to 6weeks with 0.4% hemolysis, 84% 24-h in vivo recovery, and normal …

Shear stress imposed by blood flow is crucial for maintaining vascular homeostasis. We
examined the role of shear stress in regulating SIRT1, an NAD+-dependent deacetylase …

Eryptosis, the suicidal erythrocyte death characterized by cell shrinkage and cell membrane
scrambling, is stimulated by Ca 2+ entry through Ca 2+-permeable, PGE 2-activated cation …

Suicidal death of erythrocytes, or eryptosis, is characterized by cell shrinkage and cell
membrane scrambling leading to phosphatidylserine exposure at the cell surface. Eryptosis …

Suicidal erythrocyte death or eryptosis is characterized by erythrocyte shrinkage, cell
membrane blebbing, and cell membrane scrambling with phosphatidylserine translocation …

Significance: Eryptosis, the suicidal erythrocyte death, is characterized by cell shrinkage,
membrane blebbing, and phosphatidylserine translocation to the outer membrane leaflet …

Background: High altitude is a challenging condition caused by insufficient oxygen supply.
Inability to adjust to hypoxia may lead to pulmonary edema, stroke, cardiovascular …

Erythrocytes are among the most abundant cells in mammals and are perfectly adapted to
their main functions, ie, the transport of O2 to peripheral tissues and the contribution to CO2 …
