This indicates that red blood cells have potential immune functions. Another unique physiological feature of human RBCs is the existence of specific proteins, such as Rh and ABO blood group system, on their cell membranes, leading to RBCs in the environment without corresponding antibodies; otherwise...
Various cytokines have different influences on RBCs. Growth factors influence the differentiation of RBCs. The earliest erythroid progenitor cells respond to cytokines, including thrombopoietin, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, IL3, and IL11, especially stem cell factor. Stem cell factor s...
Spleen marginal zone (MZ) B cells are important for antibody responses against blood-borne antigens. The signals they use to detect exposure to blood are not well defined. Here, using intravital two-photon microscopy in mice, we observe transient contacts between MZ B cells and red blood cells...

Blood plasma contains proteins acting as intermediates during the interaction of cell membranes. In fact, the NPs can serve both functions, acting as enhancers or inhibitors of mediating proteins and resulting in an increase or decrease of mutual adhesion of RBCs. No change in RBC interaction is ...
CP: Cell biology Introduction Red blood cells (RBCs) fill a critical role by transporting oxygen and metabolic waste between the lungs and other cells and tissues. This role has been optimized by the unique features of RBCs, which lack nuclei, mitochondria, Golgi, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER...

Recent research in artificial cell production holds promise for the development of delivery agents with therapeutic effects akin to real cells. To succeed in these applications, these systems need to survive the circulatory conditions. In this review we
