Kinetics of bicarbonate-chloride exchange across the human red blood cell membrane
The kinetics of bicarbonate-chloride exchange across the human red cell membrane was studied by following the time course of extracellular pH in a stopped-flow rapid-reaction apparatus during transfer of H+ into the cell by the CO2 hydration-dehydration cycle, under conditions where the rate of the process was determined by HCO3--Cl- exchange flux across the membrane. The flux of bicarbonate in...
متن کاملThe relationship between anion exchange and net anion flow across the human red blood cell membrane
The conductive (net) anion permeability of human red blood cells was determined from net KCl or K2SO4 effluxes into low K+ media at high valinomycin concentrations, conditions under which the salt efflux is limited primarily by the net anion permeability. Disulfonic stilbenes, inhibitors of anion exchange, also inhibited KCl or K2SO4 efflux under these conditions, but were less effective at low...
متن کاملMetabolic remodeling of the human red blood cell membrane.
The remarkable deformability of the human red blood cell (RBC) results from the coupled dynamic response of the phospholipid bilayer and the spectrin molecular network. Here we present quantitative connections between spectrin morphology and membrane fluctuations of human RBCs by using dynamic full-field laser interferometry techniques. We present conclusive evidence that the presence of adenos...
متن کاملThe potential role of radiolabeled red blood cell scintigraphy in diagnosis of endometriosis
Introduction: Endometriosis is a gynecological disease and disorder that occurs when endometrial cells are shed through the fallopian tubes and are implanted on the surfaces of pelvis and abdomen. They form lesions that respond to hormones of the menstural cycle and will stimulate inflammation. It is controversial whether [99mTc]Tc-RBC scan would be sufficient for lo...
متن کاملElectrical potential difference across blood vessels.
• Over the past decade, several types of experiments characterizing the electrical properties of blood vessels have been carried out.' 2 Some of these experiments were done to determine the possible existence, magnitude, and polarity of the normal potential difference across the aortic and vena caval wall using in vivo and in vitro preparations." The first group of experiments was done in the l...
