In vitro-transfusional model for red-blood-cell study: the advantage of lowering hematocrit

Gerardo Turcatti, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

Background - Thequalityof red blood cells (RBCs) stored in red cell concentrates (RCCs) is influenced by processing, storage and donor characteristics, and can have a clinical impact on transfused patients. To evaluate RBC properties and their potential im ...

Image- and Fluorescence-Based Test Shows Oxidant-Dependent Damages in Red Blood Cells and Enables Screening of Potential Protective Molecules

Gerardo Turcatti, Benjamin Rappaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

An increase of oxygen saturation within blood bags and metabolic dysregulation occur during storage of red blood cells (RBCs). It leads to the gradual exhaustion of RBC antioxidant protective system and, consequently, to a deleterious state of oxidative st ...

In vivo detection of d-amino acid oxidase with hyperpolarized d-[1-C-13]alanine

Rolf Gruetter, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara, Alice Radaelli

d-amino acid oxidase (DAO) is a peroxisomal enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative deamination of several neutral and basic d-amino acids to their corresponding alpha-keto acids. In most mammalian species studied, high DAO activity is found in the kidney, liv ...

Clinical relevance of low-densityPlasmodium falciparumparasitemia in untreated febrile children: A cohort study

Mary-Anne Hartley

Background Low-density (LD)Plasmodiuminfections are missed by standard malaria rapid diagnostic tests (standard mRDT) when the blood antigen concentration is below the detection threshold. The clinical impact of these LD infections is unknown. This study i ...

Programmable microencapsulation for enhanced mesenchymal stem cell persistence and immunomodulation

Berna Ayse Özkale Edelmann, Christina Myra Tringides

Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapies demonstrate particular promise in ameliorating diseases of immune dysregulation but are hampered by short in vivo cell persistence and inconsistencies in phenotype. Here, we demonstrate that biomaterial encapsulation i ...

Quantification of stored red blood cell fluctuations by time-lapse holographic cell imaging

Pierre Marquet, Gerardo Turcatti, Benjamin Rappaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

We propose methods to quantitatively calculate the fluctuation rate of red blood cells with nanometric axial and millisecond temporal sensitivity at the single-cell level by using time-lapse holographic cell imaging. For this quantitative analysis, cell me ...

Red blood cells ageing markers: a multi-parametric analysis

Gerardo Turcatti, Niels Erik Lion, Benjamin Rappaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

Background. Red blood cells collected in citrate-phosphate-dextrose can be stored for up to 42 days at 4 degrees C in saline-adenine-glucose-mannitol additive solution. During this controlled, but nevertheless artificial, ex vivo ageing, red blood cells ac ...
