Heterogeneous Red Blood Cell Adhesion and Deformability in Sickle Cell Disease
We present a microfluidic approach that allows simultaneous interrogation of RBC properties in physiological flow conditions at a single cell level. With this method, we studied healthy hemoglobin A (HbA) and homozygous sickle hemoglobin (HbS) containing RBCs using whole blood samples from twelve subjects. We report that HbS-containing RBCs are heterogeneous in terms of adhesion and deformabili...
متن کاملDynamic deformability of sickle red blood cells in microphysiological flow.
In sickle cell disease (SCD), hemoglobin molecules polymerize intracellularly and lead to a cascade of events resulting in decreased deformability and increased adhesion of red blood cells (RBCs). Decreased deformability and increased adhesion of sickle RBCs lead to blood vessel occlusion (vaso-occlusion) in SCD patients. Here, we present a microfluidic approach integrated with a cell dimension...

متن کاملAnalyzing red blood cell-deformability distributions.
BACKGROUND Red blood cells (RBCs) must deform to pass the smallest capillaries of the microcirculation. Available techniques for measuring RBC deformability often provide an indication of the mean deformability. The latter may be decreased either by a slight overall deformability reduction or by the presence of a small fraction of rigid cells. A distinction between these two cases can be made w...
متن کاملActivated neutrophil-mediated sickle red blood cell adhesion to lung vascular endothelium: role of phosphatidylserine-exposed sickle red blood cells.
Activated neutrophils (ANs) increase sickle red blood cell (SRBC) retention/adhesion in the pulmonary circulation. This study investigates the role of neutrophil activation and SRBC retention/adhesion in the pulmonary circulation through a mechanism that involves increasing phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure on the external membrane surface of the SRBCs (PS-exposed). With the use of flow cytometr...
