Abstract

Human erythrocyte Ca2+-ATPase provides the maintenance and regulation of intercellular calcium level. Change in its functional activity under cryopreservation plays an important role in cell survival and structural integrity preservation. PEO-1500 exocellular cryoprotectant inhibits erythrocyte Ca2+-ATPase activity at incubation stage but the following freeze-thawing cycle (–196...37°C) in its presence does not affect the settled regimen of this enzyme functioning. The inhibition caused by PEO-1500 effect has a reversible character and the erythrocyte Ca2+-ATPase activity is recovered after its dilution in cell suspension that is essential for cryopreserved cell normal functioning in blood bed after transfusion. The inhibition of Ca2+-ATPase activity is apparently associated to physical and chemical membrane modification under this compound effect.
