Sub-Fractions of Red Blood Cells Respond Differently to Shear Exposure Following Superoxide Treatment

Red blood cell (RBC) deformability is an essential component of microcirculatory function that appears to be enhanced by physiological shear stress, while being negatively affected by supraphysiological shears and/or free radical exposure. Given that blood contains RBCs with non-uniform physical pro...
