Shear-Stress-Gradient and Oxygen-Gradient Ektacytometry in Sickle Cell Patients at Steady State and during Vaso-Occlusive Crises

Camille Boisson et al.

Summary: This study found that both oxygen gradient ektacytometry and shear-stress-gradient ektacytometry are sensitive to disease activity in sickle cell disease (SCD). The deformability of red blood cells (RBCs) decreased during vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) compared to steady state. The oxygen-dependent propensity of RBCs to sickle was highly variable during VOC.

Metabolic Influences Modulating Erythrocyte Deformability and Eryptosis

Jean-Frederic Brun et al.

Summary: Various factors in the environment, as well as physicochemical characteristics and circulating molecules, can influence erythrocyte deformability. Some influences are reversible physiological changes, while others may lead to red cell death. The clearance of rigid erythrocytes by the spleen plays a major regulatory role. Erythrocyte deformability is under the influence of multiple regulatory loops to meet the oxygen or fuel delivery needs of tissues.

O2 permeability of lipid bilayers is low, but increases with membrane cholesterol

Samer Al-Samir et al.

Summary: Research shows that the permeability value of O-2 in liposomes is unexpectedly low at 35 degrees Celsius, but cholesterol can significantly increase this value, affecting the rate at which oxygen enters and leaves red blood cells.

Altered RBC membrane lipidome: A possible etiopathogenic link for the microvascular impairment in Type 2 diabetes

Christina E. Kostara et al.

Summary: In this study, the lipidome of RBC membranes in T2DM patients was analyzed using NMR technology, revealing increased cholesterol and glycolipids, and decreased phospholipids content, which may lead to impaired membrane fluidity and rigidity, possibly contributing to the development of microvascular complications.
