The red blood cell distribution width (RDW) obtained from a standard complete blood count
(CBC) is a convenient and inexpensive biochemical parameter representing the variability in …

Red blood cells (RBC) are the most abundant cell in the human body, with a central role in
oxygen transport and its delivery to tissues. However, omics technologies recently revealed …

Red blood cell (RBC) aging in the blood bank is characterized by the accumulation of a
significant number of biochemical and morphologic alterations. Recent mass spectrometry …

Background Increased red cell distribution width (RDW) has been related to poor prognosis
in patients with cardiovascular disease, and is a predictor of cardiovascular mortality in the …

Here we describe the effects of a controlled, 30 min, high-intensity cycling test on blood
rheology and the metabolic profiles of red blood cells (RBCs) and plasma from well-trained …

Covalent hemoglobin binding to membranes leads to band 3 (AE1) clustering and the
removal of erythrocytes from the circulation; it is also implicated in blood storage lesions …

Red blood cell (RBC) deformability, expressing their ability to change their shape, allows
them to minimize their resistance to flow and optimize oxygen delivery to the tissues. RBC …

The production of around 2.5 million red blood cells (RBCs) per second in erythropoiesis is
one of the most intense activities in the body. It continuously consumes large amounts of …

Background Characteristics of red blood cells (RBCs) are influenced by donor variability.
This study assessed quality and metabolomic variables of RBC subpopulations of varied …

Background/Aims: The exposure of phosphatidylserine (PS) on the outer membrane leaflet
of red blood cells (RBCs) serves as a signal for suicidal erythrocyte death or eryptosis, which …
