Abstract excerpt
Several diseases are characterized by changes in the mechanical properties of erythrocytes. Hemolytic anemias are an example of these diseases. Among the hemolytic anemias, Sickle Cell Disease and Thalassemia are the most common, characterized by alterations in the structure of their hemoglobin. Sickle cell disease has a pathological origin in synthesizing abnormal hemoglobin, HbS. In contrast, thalassemia...
