Structure and Adaptations of Red Blood Cells to their Function Biconcave ShapeOne of the most important adaptations of the red cells is their general shape. Generally, erythrocytes are shaped like a doughnut, without a hole in the middle. This is an important adaptation that allows the cell to...

Red blood cells make up almost 45 percent of the blood volume. Their primary function is to carry oxygen from the lungs to every cell in the body. Red blood cells are composed predominantly of a protein and iron compound, called hemoglobin, that captures oxygen molecules as the blood moves ...
Red blood cells (RBCs) have been shown to affect immune function and can induce inflammatory responses after transfusion. The transfusion of washed RBCs can significantly reduce adverse effects, however, the soluble factors that may mediate these effects have not been identified. Previous studies have...
In fact, the key role of NO in regulating RBC function has been addressed [44–50]. These findings that NO and its SNO form affect blood flow and RBC functions provide a complete mechanism of its benefits in human adaptation to hypoxia, and introduce a number of potential therapies for ...
Hemolysis is a cardinal feature of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and during hemolysis excess arginase 1 is released from red blood cells. Increased arginase activity leads to reduced L-arginine, as it is converted to urea and L-ornithine, and thereby r

This phospholipid asymmetry has important implications for cell function and is known to affect a variety of processes, including apoptosis, cell division, and blood coagulation6,7,8,9. The functional importance of lipid asymmetry has led to increasing interest in understanding the lipid composition ...
