The Influence of Erythrocyte Maturity on Ion Transport and Membrane Lipid Composition in the Rat

Abstract: Significant relationships between ion transport and membrane lipid composition (cholesterol, total phospholipids and sphingomyelins) were found in erythrocytes of salt hypertensive Dahl rats. In these animals mean cellular hemoglobin content correlated negatively with Na+-K+ pump activity and Na+ leak but positively with Na+-K+ cotransport activity. Immature erythrocytes exhibit lower mean cellular hemoglobin content (MCHC) than mature ones. The aim of the present study was to find a relationship between eryth… Show more

“…Red blood cell (RBC) damage is a recognized feature of hypertensive patients, including reduced RBC membrane fluidity 1 and impaired RBC deformability 2,3 . The reduced RBC membrane fluidity might participate in the pathogenesis of hypertension 4 . However, few direct evidence verified a causal relationship between RBC-related markers for hypertension's prevalence or long-term prognosis.…”

“…Red blood cells (RBC) are often used to investigate membrane lipid composition [7] and membrane protein function [8]. Compared to other tissues, such as adipose tissue, RBCs membranes are easily available and reflect long-term FA intake [9].…”

“…RBC life span in the circulation is influenced by several complex factors (18 -20). Characteristic changes in the activity of ion transporters and cation content are related to RBC aging (21,22). Lack of several structural membrane skeleton proteins in RBCs reduces life span and induces anemia (23,24).…”
