Red Cell Aging . I . Surface Charge
It has been suggested that decreases in red cell surface-charge density accompany aging in vivo and reflect alterations in the cell surface which play a critical role in the recognition and elimination of effete erythrocytes by macrophages in the reticuloendothelial system. The bases for this suggestion are reports that the surfacecharge density progressively decreases for red cell subpopulatio...
متن کاملRole of Surface Electric Charge in Red Blood Cell Interactions
The role of the surface charge of human red blood cells (RBC's) in affecting RBC aggregation by macromolecules was studied by comparing the behavior of normal RBC's with that of RBC's treated with neuraminidase, which removes the sialic acids from the cell membrane and reduces the zeta potential. RBC aggregation in dextrans with different molecular weights (Dx 20, Dx 40, and Dx 80) was quantifi...
متن کاملMechanisms of cell injury in rat mesentery and cremaster muscle.
The events responsible for cell injury after a tissue stimulation are only incompletely understood. The purpose of this study was to examine mechanisms of cell injury in two tissues, rat mesentery and cremaster muscle, after tissue stimulation with N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) and platelet-activating factor (PAF). The response was studied in the same animal in random order usin...
متن کاملEFFECTS OF MAGNETIC FIELD ON THE RED CELL ON NUTRITIONAL TRANSPORT IN CAPILLARY-TISSUE EXCHANGE SYSTEM
A mathematical model for nutritional transport in capillary tissues exchange system in thepresence of magnetic field has been studied. In this case, the cell is deformed. Due to concentrationgradients, the dissolved nutrient in substrate diffuses into surrounding tissue. Theanalytical method is based on perturbation technique while the numerical simulation is basedon finite difference scheme. R...
متن کاملSmooth muscle alpha1D-adrenoceptors mediate phenylephrine-induced vasoconstriction and increases in endothelial cell Ca2+ in hamster cremaster arterioles.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE alpha(1)-Adrenoceptor agonists induce Ca(2+)-transients in endothelial cells (ECs) of arterioles. However, the presence of alpha(1)-adrenoceptors on arteriolar ECs has not been excluded, and the identity of alpha(1)-adrenoceptor subtypes in arterioles only has been inferred from pharmacology. Therefore, we determined which subtypes were expressed by vascular smooth muscle...
