Mittag D, Sran A, Chan KS, Boland MP, Bandala-Sanchez E, Huet O, et al. Stored red blood cell sus- ceptibility to in vitro transfusion-associated stress conditions is higher after longer storage and increased by storage in saline-adenine-glucose-mannitol compared to AS-1. Transfusion. ...
Changes in red blood cell (RBC) function can contribute to alterations in microcirculatory blood flow and cellular dysoxia in sepsis. Decreases in RBC and neutrophil deformability impair the passage of these cells through the microcirculation. While the role of leukocytes has been the focus of many...

* To compare the mean change in the red cell indices (red blood cell [RBC] count, mean corpuscular volume [MCV], mean corpuscular hemoglobin [MCH], and MCH concentration [MCHC]) from the baseline up to 8 weeks of intervention period. Evaluation of efficacy of jaggery and raisins as supple...
Whole blood cell analysis in mice showed that all groups infected with Plasmodium suffered from different degrees of anemia compared with mock-infected mice; this was shown by the numbers of RBCs, hemoglobin, and hematocrit. Except for the EM- ARM and PEM-ARM administration groups, there were ...
In sickle cell disease (SCD), the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) ERK1/2 is constitutively active and can be inducible by agonist-stimulation only in sickle but not in normal human red blood cells (RBCs). ERK1/2 is involved in activation of ICAM-
In this study we use a Mendelian Randomization Unnecessary approach to assess the effect of red blood cell (RBC) folate on genome-wide DNA methylation in cord blood. Site-specific CpG methylation within the proximal promoter regions of approximately 14,500 genes was analyzed using the Illumina Inf...
His blood count showed a packed cell volume (PCV) of 40% with normal WBC, differential, and platelet counts. His blood chemistry profile was within normal limits. Computerized tomography of the head revealed the presence of a leaking basilar artery aneurysm. He received diphenylhydantoin (300 mg...
Intravascular hemolysis, or the destruction of red blood cells in the circulation, can occur in numerous diseases, including the acquired hemolytic anemias, sickle cell disease and β-thalassemia, as well as during some transfusion reactions, preeclampsia and infections, such as those caused by malar...
The abnormal adherence of red blood cells (RBC) to the blood vessel wall is believed to contribute to the vascular occlusion observed in patients with sickle cell anemia. The cell adhesion receptors GPIV (CD36) and integrin a^S, (CD49d/CD29) were previously identified on circulating sickle...
