Here’s an
interesting thing I saw down the microscope today.

Stomatocytes.
You don’t see them very often… They have a mouthlike or slit-like form that
replaces the normal central pale zone.There are several mechanisms by which
this change can occur:
- In hereditary stomatocytosis (HSt), the mechanism of stomatocyte formation often involves changes in cell volume caused by reduced intracellular ion content and trans-membrane pump malfunction.
- In most cases of acquired stomatocytosis (and some rare inherited conditions) there can be either a decrease in red cell membrane surface area or qualitative changes in the composition of the membrane lipid bilayer (pumps again).
I found an
article about them on-line. You can read
it here.
