Glycocalyx Cleavage Boosts Erythrocytes Aggregation
Mehdi Abbasi, Min Jin, Yazdan Rashidi +3
The glycocalyx is a complex layer of carbohydrate and protein molecules that surrounds the cell membrane of many types of mammalian cells. It serves several important functions, in…

Cell-free layer development and spatial organization of healthy and rigid red blood cells in a microfluidic bifurcation
Yazdan Rashidi, Othmane Aouane, Alexis C. Darras +4
Bifurcations and branches in the microcirculation dramatically affect blood flow as they determine the spatiotemporal organization of red blood cells (RBCs). Such changes in vessel…

Cell-free layer of red blood cells in a constricted microfluidic channel under steady and time-dependent flow conditions
Steffen M. Recktenwald, Katharina Graessel, Yazdan Rashidi +4
Constricted blood vessels in the circulatory system can severely impact the spatiotemporal organization of red blood cells (RBCs) causing various physiological complications. In la…
