title: Membrane processes during 'in vivo' aging of human erythrocytes.
abstract: Membrane modifications occurring during in vitro and in vivo aging in human erythrocytes have been investigated. The structural damages are the consequence of proteolytic and oxidative processes and involve both glycoprotein and protein component of the membrane. The target of these processes seems to be the same during in vitro and in vivo aging.
