Erythrocyte Energy Metabolism in Hereditary
نویسنده
چکیده
The incorporation of extracellular orthophosphate-32P into cellular ATP, 2,3-diphosphoglyceric acid, and inorganic phosphate has been measured over a period of 6 hours in vitro in red blood cells from normal subjects and from patients with hereditary spherocytosis who had undergone splenectomy. The pattern of labeling of the intracellular compounds was found to be the same in both types of red blood cells, as reported by other workers using much shorter periods of incubation. In addition, in the present study it was possible to compare the net flux of extracellular phosphate into ATP between the two groups of erythrocytes. These latter results suggest that the actual turnover rate of ATP was not abnormal in these patients with hereditary spherocytosis.

Although the compromised GSH status of children with edematous protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) has been documented, the in vivo kinetic mechanism(s) responsible for this is not known. To determine if decreased synthesis contributes to the alteration of GSH homeostasis, the fractional and absolute rates of synthesis of erythrocyte GSH were determined shortly after admission (study 1), approxim...

متن کاملErythrocyte deformability and hereditary elliptocytosis.
Hereditary elliptocytosis (HE) is a hereditary membranopathy that comprises a heterogeneous group of diseases, which share irreversible erythrocyte elongation with a prolonged longitudinal diameter in relation to the cross-section (elliptocytes and ovalocytes), which acts as a morphological sign to guide diagnosis. It is characterised by certain molecular alterations to cytoskeleton proteins, s...
