hemolysis/hypoxia

Fetal hemoglobin (Hb F) levels in the peripheral blood of baboons (Papio cynocephalus) increased from an average value of 0.78% to 18.1% during the recovery phase from phenylhydrazine-induced hemolytic anemia. A similar increase was observed in animals exposed to hypobaric hypoxia. Large individual

This study aimed to investigate the effect of ozone on hypoxia, hemolysis and morphological change of blood from aortic dissection (AD) patients for providing preliminary evidence of application of ozonated autohemotherapy (Ozone-AHT) in AD patients. 20 AD patients and 20 healthy volunteers were

Intravascular hemolysis occurs in hereditary, acquired, and iatrogenic hemolytic conditions but it could be also a normal physiological process contributing to intercellular signaling. New evidence suggests that intravascular hemolysis and the associated release of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) may

As shown in various studies, hemolysis is revealed in all extracorporeal circuits showing the increasing levels of plasma-free hemoglobin (PfHb) during and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The pathogenesis factors and mechanisms of intraoperative hemolysis are observed in this article. The role

The objective of this study was to define the relationship between peroxyl radical-mediated cytotoxicity and lipid, protein and sulfhydryl oxidation using human erythrocytes as the target mammalian cell. We found that incubation of human erythrocytes with the peroxyl radical generator 2,2' azobis

Specimens of the newt, Triturus cristatus carnifex (Laurenti), rendered totally anemic, restore erythron by cyclic waves of erythropoietic activity that alternate with intervals of stasis. Hemolysis is obtained by administering 25 mg/liter of acetylphenylhydrazine in the breeding water for 36 h. The

One hundred and five male (Hartley) guinea-pigs weighing 350-380 g and 30 splenectomized guinea-pigs were exposed to simulated hypobaric hypoxia of 50.6 kPa (equal to an altitude of 5486 m) for 14 days. The partial pressure of oxygen was set at half that at sea level. The white blood cell count

The cation-osmotic hemolysis was studied in human red blood cells incubated under anoxic conditions. In relation to the time course of anoxia, two phases of hemolysis were distinguished. A significant decrease of hemolysis was found between 3 and 24 h of incubation. On the other hand, hemolysis was

During a prospective study of red cell variants and severe malaria in children, a surprising observation was the occurrence of dark urine. Children were grouped according to urine findings: 22 had dark urine that contained a haem protein (Group I), 93 had urine of normal colour that contained a haem

Hypoxia causes erythrocyte sickling in vitro; however, its role in the pathophysiology of sickle cell disease is poorly understood. We report that hypoxia rapidly decreased oxygen saturation in transgenic sickle cell disease mice, but this effect was immediately buffered by a robust ventilatory

Intravascular hemolysis is a hallmark of a large spectrum of diseases, including the sickle cell disease (SCD), and is characterized by liberation of red blood cell (RBC) degradation products in the circulation. Released Hb, heme, RBC fragments and microvesicles (MVs) exert pro-inflammatory,

Moderate anemia is associated with increased mortality and morbidity, including acute kidney injury (AKI), in surgical patients. A red blood cell (RBC)-specific antibody model was utilized to determine whether moderate subacute anemia could result in tissue hypoxia as a potential mechanism of

Resistance of erythrocyte membranes, estimated by means of ultrasound hemolysis, was altered 7 days before the cells quantitative changes after simultaneous treatment of intact animals with 5-fluorouracil, administered as solution or in acetate cellulose drug-containing granules, and short-term gas
