Structural and mechanical properties of the red blood cell’s cytoplasmic membrane seen through the lens of biophysics
Red blood cells (RBCs) are the most abundant cell type in the human body and critical suppliers of oxygen. The cells are characterized by a simple structure with no internal organelles. Their two-layered outer shell is composed of a cytoplasmic membrane (RBC( cm )) tethered to a spectrin cytoskeleto...
