The effect of endotoxin and tumour necrosis factor on erythrocyte and leucocyte deformability in vitro.

abstract：:Oxygen dissociation studies were carried out on red cells and lysates from a patient heterozygous for Hb Hammersmith. The oxygen affinity of the cells at pH 7.1 was decreased, partly by an increased cellular concentration of 2,3-DPG and more importantly by an intrinsic low affinity of Hb Hammersmity. Haem-haem interac...
