Abstract
Erythrocytes from normal subjects and from cases of iron deficiency anemia were exposed to hydrogen peroxide and the extent of membrane lipid peroxidation studied. Significantly less peroxidation was observed in intact anemic erythrocytes compared to normal. However, when isolated membrane lipids were subjected to peroxidation, there was no significant difference between the two groups. It is unlikely that lipid peroxidation per se plays a major role in the reported decrease in red cell life-span in iron deficiency. *** DIRECT SUPPORT *** A2025146 00003Keywords
