Popis: | The aim of this study was to estimate effects of some chemotherapy drugs on the elasticity and deformability of the membrane of a red blood cell (RBC). It was found that incubation of red blood cells (RBCs) with cisplatin or epoetin alpha led to considerable (by 10–17%; p < 0.05) increase in the RBC deformability and that cisplatin could activate tyrosine protein kinases (TPKs). Preincubation of RBCs with a specific inhibitor of EGF-R and Src kinase, lavendustin A, almost completely prevented the cisplatin effect. Tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, sodium orthovanadate, increased the RBC deformability (p < 0.05). This effect was also abandoned by lavendustin A. To test a hypothesis on the involvement of protein kinases of mature RBCs in control of their membrane elasticity, the cells were incubated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) activating protein kinase Cα (PKCα). PMA increased the RBC deformability only moderately (by 8%, p < 0.05) and the effect was canceled by nonselective and selective PKC inhibitors staurosporin and 4-(1-methylindol-3-yl)maleimide hydrochloride. Erythropoietin is known to inhibit the nonselective cation channels of the RBC membrane; however, preincubation of the cells with verapamil did not cancel the increase in their deformability. Hence, this increase in deformability could be a result of the action of tyrosine protein kinases, the more so that this effect was almost completely canceled by lavendustion A. The results suggest that the presence of functionally active protein kinases and phosphatases in the membranes of mature RBC makes them a target for the addressed effects of signal molecules, including some chemotherapy drugs, causing consecutive alterations in the RBC membrane elasticity, microrheological properties, and transport potential. |
