THE EFFECT OF L-CARNOSINE ON ERYTHROCYTE DEFORMABILITY AND AGGREGATION ACCORDING TO THE CELL AGE IN YOUNG AND AGED RATS

This study aimed to investigate alterations in hemorheology induced by L-carnosine, an anti- oxidant dipeptide, and to determine their relationship to oxidative stress in density-separated erythrocytes of aged and young rats. 28 male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups as aged (Aca), youn...
