The formation of microvesicles by blood cells: monocytes, platelets, granulocytes, erythrocytes and endothelial cells is the most important feature of intercellular interactions. Red blood cells form microvesicles to remove damaged cell components, such as oxidized hemoglobin and damaged membrane components, and thus extend their functioning. Two hypotheses have been put forward for the formation of microvesicles: programmed cell death (eryptosis) and clustering of the band 3 protein as a result of disruption of intercellular interactions. In the process of eryptosis, damage to hemoglobin and a change in the pathways of phosphorylation of membrane proteins, primarily protein of strip 3, weaken the strong bonds between the lipid bilayer and the cytoskeleton, which is accompanied by the transformation of the membrane, the formation of protrusions and their transformation into microvesicles. It was found that the formation of microvesicles by red blood cells is impaired in patients suffering from various pathologies of red blood cells: sickle cell anemia, glucose-6-dehydrogenase deficiency, spherocytosis, and malaria. Studies of the last decade show that a violation of the interaction between the membrane and the cytoskeleton is probably the main mechanism, since it is confirmed by data obtained in the study of structural changes in red blood cells of donor hemocomponents stored in a blood bank. Currently, studies on the effect of microvesicles on the safety of erythrocyte-containing blood components have become widespread. A discussion was resumed on the relationship between the number of accumulated microvesicles in blood components and the effectiveness of donor components for patients during transfusion, depending on the shelf life of the components. Detailed data on proteomic, lipidomic and immunogenic comparisons of microvesicles obtained from various sources are convincing in the identification of trigger stimuli causing the generation of microvesicles. Elucidation of the contribution of microvesicles obtained from red blood cells to inflammation, thrombosis, and autoimmune reactions confirms the need to further study the mechanisms and consequences of the generation of microvesicles by red blood cells of donor components used for transfusion medicine.

In this study the volume-dependent or N-ethylmaleimide (NEM)-stimulated, ouabain-insensitive K+ influx and efflux were measured with the tracer 86Rb+ in rabbit red blood cells. The purpose of the work was to examine the rabbit as a potential model for cell volume regulation in human SS red blood cells and also to investigate the relationship between the NEM-reactive sulfhydryl group(s) and the signal by which cell swelling activates the transport. Ouabain-resistant K+ efflux and influx increase nearly threefold in cells swollen hypotonically by 15%. Pretreatment with 2 mM NEM stimulates efflux 5-fold and influx 10-fold (each measured in an isotonic medium). The ouabain-resistant K+ efflux was dependent on the major anion in the medium. The anion dependence of K+ efflux in swollen or NEM-stimulated cells was as follows: Br- greater than Cl- much greater than NO3- = acetate. The magnitudes of both the swelling- and the NEM-stimulated fluxes are much higher in young cells (density separated but excluding reticulocytes) than in older cells. Swelling- or NEM-stimulated K+ efflux in rabbit red blood cells was inhibited 50% by 1 mM furosemide, and the inhibitory potency of furosemide was enhanced by extracellular K+, as is known to be true for human AA and low-K+ sheep red blood cells. The swelling-stimulated flux in both rabbit and human SS cells has a pH optimum at approximately 7.4. We conclude that rabbit red blood cells are a good model for swelling-stimulated K+ transport in human SS cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The correct determination of the blood types of the recipient and the donor is very importante for the choice of blood components for transfusion. As a result of the study, it was established that 18.0% of patients, admitted to the hematology clinic, have difficulties in interpreting of the results of immunohematological tests. Most often, a double population of red blood cells was detected when determining antigens of the Rhesus system (10.9%), auto- (3.9%) and alloantibodies (2.8%). The proposed algorithm for the selection of donor red blood cells in difficult diagnostic cases helps to prevent the development of post-transfusion complications.
