(a) Qualitative representation of simultaneous detection of NADPH levels and deformation induced ATP release from rabbit RBCs. NADPH levels were measured using a fluorescence based G6PD assay, while ATP release was measured using chemiluminescence. The bottom two traces represent ATP release from normal RBCs (higher of the pair) and G6PD inhibited (lower of the pair) RBCs. The top two traces represent NADPH levels in 0.02% RBCs in the absence (higher of the pair) and presence (lower trace of the pair) of DHEA. (b) Quantitative representation of simultaneously detected NADPH levels and deformation derived ATP release. The black bars represent NADPH concentration (n= 5 rabbits), while the gray bars represent ATP release (n= 5 rabbits). The values between the two groups are significantly different (p < 0.01).
