It has been shown that rheological abnormality might be an etiological factor in hypertension. Recent studies have revealed that human erythrocytes possess a nitric oxide (NO) synthase and that this activation might be involved in the regulation of rheological properties

In the present work, the effect of Randomly-methylated-beta-cyclodextrin (Rameb) on the microviscosity of dimyristoyl-l-alpha phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) bilayer was investigated using the electron spin resonance (ESR) technique. The ability of Rameb to extract membrane cholesterol was demonstrated. For the first time
