Human red blood cells-1
Biochemists and cell biologists, who are interested in membranes, tend to regard the human red blood cell ambivalently. On one hand, red blood cells lack nuclei and the various intracellular organelles, yet that are highly specialized for a particular respiratory function. On the other hand, the human red blood cell presents an excellent model for membrane transport function.
متن کاملStretching and relaxation of malaria-infected red blood cells.
The invasion of red blood cells (RBCs) by malaria parasites is a complex dynamic process, in which the infected RBCs gradually lose their deformability and their ability to recover their original shape is greatly reduced with the maturation of the parasites. In this work, we developed two types of cell model, one with an included parasite, and the other without an included parasite. The former ...
متن کاملSpectrin-based skeleton in red blood cells and malaria.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Malaria represents one of the most important selective factors affecting human populations. Several inherited diseases of red blood cells lead to resistance at the erythrocytic stage. Among patients who experience hereditary elliptocytosis related to mutations of erythrocyte membrane proteins, molecular studies have shown the prevalence of particular spectrin mutations in pati...
متن کاملEffects of High Doses of X-Ray on Hematological Parameters and Morphology of Red Blood Cells in Human Blood
Introduction: The aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of X-ray radiation on some hematological parameters, morphology of red blood cells (RBC) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) analysis of human blood using computed tomography (CT) scanner. Material and Methods: For the purpose of the study, 5 ml of wholeblood was drawn from vein puncture of 28 healthy people and div...
متن کاملArresting malaria parasite egress from infected red blood cells.
The cyclical waves of fever and chills associated with malaria result from the synchronous rupture of infected red blood cells (RBCs) that release swarms of parasites into the bloodstream for subsequent reinvasion and proliferation. Despite the clinical importance of this phase of the malaria parasite life cycle, relatively little is known about the mechanisms used by the parasite to promote RB...
