Chapter 3 • Red Blood Cell Production, Function, and Relevant Red Blood Cell Morphology 37
36 Part I • Basic Hematology Principles
the red blood cell to survive for its 120-day life cycle, the following conditions are necessary: • The red blood cell membrane must be deformable, able to squeeze though smaller diameter blood vessels • Hemoglobin structure and function must be adequate • The red blood cell membrane must maintain osmotic balance and permeability The mature red blood cell is an anucleate structure with no capacity to synthesize protein, but it is capable of a limited metabolism that enables it to survive for 120 days. 3 An intact, competent, and fully functioning red blood cell membrane is an essential ingredient to a successful red blood cell life span. The membrane of the red blood cell is a trilaminar and three-dimensional structure containing glycolipids and glycoproteins on the outermost layer directly beneath the red blood cell membrane surface. Cholesterol and phospholipids form the central layer, and the inner layer, the cytoskeleton, contains the specific membrane proteins: spectrin, ankyrin, actin, and protein 4.1 (Fig. 3.8). Composition of Lipids in the Interior and Exterior Layers Fifty percent of the red blood cell membrane is protein, 40% is lipid, and the remaining 10% is cholesterol (Box 3.1). The lipid fraction is a two-dimensional interactive fluid that serves as a barrier to most water-soluble
RED BLOOD CELL MEMBRANE DEVELOPMENT AND FUNCTION
The mature red blood cell is a magnificently designed instrument for hemoglobin delivery. As a hemoglobin- filled sac, the red blood cell travels more than 300 miles through the peripheral circulation, submitting itself to the swift waters of the circulatory system, squeezing through the threadlike splenic sinuses, and bathing in the plasma microenvironment. Cellular and environ- mental factors contribute to red blood cell survival. For
