PIEZO1 and the mechanism of the long circulatory longevity of human red blood cells

Fig 6

Predicted lifespan changes in the intracellular concentrations of Na (CNa), of K (CK) and of diffusible anions A (CA) for the conditions of the Reference pattern (Fig 3).

Note that because PzNa and PzK were set at zero in the minimalistic representation of the reference pattern, the predicted changes shown in this figure result solely from the cumulative effects of periodic Gardos channel activation and Na/K pump decay.
