The addition of malonyldialdehyde to red blood cells in vitro causes the formation of fluorescent chromolipids characteristic of those produced during the peroxidation of endogenous membrane phospholipids. Gel electrophoresis reveals that this agent also causes a decrease in bands 1 and 2 of spectrin as well as an increase in high MW protein polymers. These same changes are observed in membranes of older cell populations fractionated from freshly drawn, untreated blood. Polymerization of membrane components, subsequent to the peroxidation of membrane lipids, may contribute to the altered biochemical and mechanical properties of aging cells and to their eventual sequestration.
