Liposome oxidation and erythrocyte lysis by enzymically generated superoxide and hydrogen peroxide.

TL;DR: It is proposed that O2- and H2O2 cooperated in producing OH- and O2('deltag), which were the proximate causes of lipid peroxidation and of hemolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactions involving superoxide and normal and unstable haemoglobins.

TL;DR: The relative importance of autoxidation and superoxide production compared with haemichrome formation in the haemolytic process associated with these abnormal haemoglobins and thalassaemia is considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism of hemolysis induced by ferriprotoporphyrin IX.

TL;DR: Observations indicate that FP impairs the erythrocyte's ability to maintain cation gradients and induces hemolysis by a colloid-osmotic mechanism.

Enzymatic basis for the Ca2+-induced cross-linking of membrane proteins in intact human erythrocytes.

TL;DR: Isolation of this isodipeptide confirms the idea that the Ca2+-induced membrane protein polymerization is mediated by transglutaminase, and suggests that transglUTaminase-catalyzed cross-linking may be a biochemical cause of irreversible membrane stiffening.
