The effect of temperature (5-20 degrees C) and treatment with phenylhydrazine on the hypertonic lysis of erythrocytes in the presence of alkyl-beta,d-glucopyranosides was studied. The results highlight an important role for the cytoskeleton-membrane complex, which allows the cells to both withstand hypertonic stress within the temperature range studied and facilitate the protective effect of alkylglucopyranosides at low temperatures (5 degrees C).
