This chapter is a brief overview of red blood cell development. Red blood cells develop through erythropoeisis in the bone marrow, where erythropoietin (EPO) assists in the formation and later the potential for accumulation of oxygen on its surface. Immature reticulocytes eventually mature into ...

Red blood cells. Credit: Children's Hospital Boston By taking a deep dive into the molecular underpinnings of Diamond-Blackfan anemia, scientists have made a new discovery about what drives the development of mature red blood cells from the earliest form of blood cells, called hematopoietic (blood...

Dr Ali is especially interested in updates ongene therapy, patient counseling, and the development of new drugs to regulate hematopoiesis for...
Artificial cells for in vivo biomedical applications through red blood cell biomimicry Open access20 March 2024 Background The development of drug delivery systems has become increasingly sophisticated in recent decades. Nanocarriers with rational designs could enhance the application of various diagnostic te...
Erythropoietin (Epo) is essential for formation of mature red blood cells (RBC). However, the function of Epo receptor (EpoR)-dependent signaling pathways in the regulation of erythropoiesis remains unclear. To determine whether specific Stat signals are required for RBC development, we changed the...
Red blood cells (RBCs) are the most abundant cells in the body, possessing unique biological and physical properties. RBCs have demonstrated outstanding potential as delivery vehicles due to their low immunogenicity, long-circulating cycle, and immune ch
If RBCs contain circulating plasma proteins, then they may too be representative of the inflammatory state of the participant which has potential implications in diagnostics. Small volume blood collection is a crucial step in the development of rapid, bench side diagnostics, and the use of RBCs ...
Inhibiting Bloodlinc or Hnrnpu compromises the terminal erythropoiesis gene program, blocking red cell production, whereas expressing Bloodlinc ectopically stimulates this program and can promote erythroblast proliferation and enucleation in the absence of differentiation stimuli. Thus, Bloodlinc is a trans-...
Red Blood Cell Anatomy and Description Red blood cells are small cells that do not have a nucleus. They are shaped like a disc with an indentation in the middle, which makes them look a little bit like a doughnut. Because they are so small, they can fit through the tiny capillaries wher...
