Properties of rabbit erythrocytes treated with phospholipase A2 from bee venom

1. 1. In isotonic saline-buffered conditions, phospholipase A2 from bee venom cleaves up to 65% of the phosphatidylcholine of the rabbit RBC membrane without causing significant hemolysis; however, the volume and the osmotic fragility of the treated RBC is modified. 2. 2. The osmotic behaviour of PL...

Zusammenfassung:1. 1. In isotonic saline-buffered conditions, phospholipase A2 from bee venom cleaves up to 65% of the phosphatidylcholine of the rabbit RBC membrane without causing significant hemolysis; however, the volume and the osmotic fragility of the treated RBC is modified. 2. 2. The osmotic behaviour of PLA-treated RBC after reincubation in autologous plasma suggests an heterogeneity in the enzymatic attack among the RBC population. 3. 3. In vivo RBC survival is strongly impaired by PLA treatment.
