Sickle-cell disease , or sickle-cell anaemia (or drepanocytosis ), is a life-long blood disorder characterized by red blood cells that assume an abnormal, rigid, sickle shape. Sickling decreases ...

Taking the blood ... In so-called "sickle-cell anaemia", erythrocytes become typically sickle-shaped. With the electron microscope, biologists saw that red cells can have different shapes: normal (discocyte), ... In this way, the antibody of the new cell takes a slightly different shape in comparison to that of its "mitotic parent".

REU 1989: The Red Blood Cell Shape (M. Peterson) ... Solutions include shapes which actually occur for red blood cells: the "normal" discocytic shape, and stomatocyte shapes (i.e., "cup" shapes). Three such equilibrium shapes are shown below (the rotational symmetry axis is horizontal).

Sickle cell anemia is a disease in which your body produces abnormally shaped red blood cells. The cells are shaped like a crescent or sickle. They don't last as long as normal, round red blood cells, which leads to anemia.

Human red blood cell shape and volume are changed by physiological levels of hydrostatic pressure. ... The present study demonstrates that application of hydrostatic pressure of up to 15 atm changes the shape of RBC from the normal discoids to stomatocytes (cup-shaped) and accordingly increases their volume.
