Atomic force microscopy reveals involvement of the cell envelope in biomechanical properties of sickle erythrocytes

BACKGROUND: Intracellular hemoglobin polymerization has been supposed to be the major determinant for the elevated rigidity/stiffness of sickle erythrocytes from sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients. However, the contribution of the cell envelope remains unclear. RESULTS: In this study, using atomic fo...
