本研究通过显微与介观模拟揭示红细胞形成软胶体凝胶,并基于高体积分数等特性建立引力坍塌理论模型,其预测与宏观测量相符,阐明了红细胞沉降的物理机制。

摘要:

红细胞沉降率是最古老的医学诊断方法之一,其物理机制至今仍存争议。利用光学显微和介观细胞级模拟,我们展示了红细胞会形成软胶体凝胶。此外,红细胞的高体积分数、形变能力及弱吸引力导致该凝胶具有异常性质。我们开发了引力坍塌的理论模型,其预测与界面速度的详细宏观测量结果相符。

英文摘要:

The erythrocyte sedimentation rate is one of the oldest medical diagnostic methods whose physical mechanisms remain debatable up to date. Using both light microscopy and mesoscale cell-level simulations, we show that erythrocytes form a soft-colloid gel. Furthermore, the high volume fraction of erythrocytes, their deformability, and weak attraction lead to unusual properties of this gel. A theoretical model for the gravitational collapse is developed, whose predictions are in agreement with detailed macroscopic measurements of the interface velocity.
