To examine the effects of type 1 diabetes mellitus and elevated glycated hemoglobin on the structural morphology and membrane thermal stability of human red blood cells.
Analyzed red blood cells from patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and non-diabetic controls stratified by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels.
Evaluated erythrocyte morphology and cellular membrane thermal transitions using microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
Diabetic conditions produced atypical erythrocyte morphology compared to non-diabetic controls.
Differential scanning calorimetry revealed case-dependent alterations in thermal stability, showing modified thermal profiles in the cytoplasm and cell membrane.
