Diverse Effect of Vitamin C and N-Acetylcysteine on Aluminum-Induced Eryptosis
Figure 3
AlCl3 induced membrane blebbing, PS externalization, and cell shrinkage in the erythrocytes. Micrographs showed normal shape erythrocytes in the control group (a) and membrane blebbing following treatment of erythrocytes with Ringer solution containing AlCl3 (30 µM) (b). Incubation with AlCl3 (30 and 100 μM) increased annexin V positive cells (c) and (d). Forward scatter in the erythrocytes ((e) and (f)) following exposure for 24 hours to Ringer solution (control; grey area), AlCl3 (100 μM; black line).
