Proton NMR study of erythrocytes of essential hypertensives.
Proton NMR studies (saturation transfer experiments and longitudinal relaxation time determinations) indicate that substantial differences exist between erythrocytes of essential hypertensives and normotensive subjects. A higher degree of intracellular organization has been found for the hypertensives and several factors are proposed as contributing to the observed behaviour.
