We used 31P Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to investigate whether regeneration of ATP in outdated human blood is accompanied by Mg-ATP recomplexation. We found that the loss of 'total ATP' (i.e. the sum of ATP4- + MG-ATP2-) which occurs during blood storage is completely reversible by treatment of RBC with precursors for purine nucleotide salvage. The magnesium-ATP complex, however, is only partially (70%) recovered due to a continuous decline of cytosolic free Mg2+ with increasing RBC age. Total RBC magnesium, as measured by flame absorption spectroscopy, did not show any significant change under these conditions.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008274 Magnesium A metallic element that has the atomic symbol Mg, atomic number 12, and atomic weight 24.31. It is important for the activity of many enzymes, especially those involved in OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION.

D001793 Blood Preservation The process by which blood or its components are kept viable outside of the organism from which they are derived (i.e., kept from decay by means of a chemical agent, cooling, or a fluid substitute that mimics the natural state within the organism). Blood Preservations,Preservation, Blood,Preservations, Blood
D003080 Cold Temperature An absence of warmth or heat or a temperature notably below an accustomed norm. Cold,Cold Temperatures,Temperature, Cold,Temperatures, Cold
D004905 Erythrocyte Aging The senescence of RED BLOOD CELLS. Lacking the organelles that make protein synthesis possible, the mature erythrocyte is incapable of self-repair, reproduction, and carrying out certain functions performed by other cells. This limits the average life span of an erythrocyte to 120 days. Erythrocyte Survival,Aging, Erythrocyte,Survival, Erythrocyte
D004912 Erythrocytes Red blood cells. Mature erythrocytes are non-nucleated, biconcave disks containing HEMOGLOBIN whose function is to transport OXYGEN.
