critical information in disease populations. Differential white blood cell counts and morphological changes in leukocytes can provide valuable diagnostic information that supplement other tests and clinical assessments3. These cells are known to produce and respond to a number of cytokines to either promote...

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
Abstract 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...
To quantify the properties of blood in the microcirculation, red blood cell (RBC) flows have been widely investigated in vitro as a proxy for the innate microvasculature [1], [2], [3]. In this context, microfabrication techniques have facilitated the proliferation of in vitro studies on blood...
Red blood cells (RBC), or erythrocytes, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate organism's principal means of delivering oxygen (O2) to the body tissues via the blood flow through the circulatory system. They take up oxygen in the lungs or gills and release it while squ...

Living at high altitudes can lead to a higher blood cell count. This is because the function of red blood cells is to deliver oxygen, and there is less oxygen in the air at high elevation. If you donate plasma, you will also have a high red blood cell count relative to your blood ...
