Impact of surface-area-to-volume ratio, internal viscosity and membrane viscoelasticity on red blood cell deformability measured in isotonic condition

Résumé

osmotic gradient ektacytometry is the gold standard to assess red blood cell (RBC) deformability. It has been proposed that, when measured in isotonic condition, RBC deformability at low shear stress would depend on membrane elasticity while it would be influenced by internal viscosity when measured at high shear stress, but this hypothesis needs to be further addressed. Healthy RBCs were rigidified by treatment with lysolecithine (LpC), diamide or nystatine associated with hyperosmolar solutions (osMo), which reduces membrane surface area, decreases membrane elasticity or promotes cell dehydration, respectively. Diamide treatment resulted in a decrease in isotonic RBC deformability at all shear stresses tested (i.e. from 0.3 to 30 Pa). LPC and OSMO treatments caused a decrease in isotonic RBC deformability above 3 Pa only. Isotonic RBC deformability from patients with hereditary spherocytosis or sickle cell disease was mainly decreased above 1.69 Pa. Our findings indicate that decreased isotonic RBC deformability at shear stresses above 3 Pa would be related to a reduction in the surface-area-to-volume ratio and/or to a loss of membrane elasticity and/or to an increase in internal viscosity while a decrease of RBC deformability below 3 Pa would reflect a loss of membrane elasticity.
