We have studied the interaction of hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) amyloid fibrils with human erythrocytes and lipid vesicles. The fibrils caused extensive aggregation of human erythrocytes and lipid vesicles without any significant lysis. The membrane activity of HEWL fibrils suggests that the interaction of lysozyme fibrils with cellular membranes could be a contributing factor under disease conditions.
我们研究了鸡蛋清溶菌酶(HEWL)淀粉样纤维与人类红细胞和脂质囊泡的相互作用。这些纤维导致人类红细胞和脂质囊泡大量聚集,且无明显裂解。HEWL纤维的膜活性表明,溶菌酶纤维与细胞膜的相互作用可能是疾病状态下的一个促成因素。
