The human red blood cell (RBC) is a model system for studying how such forces determine cell morphology. It is thought that RBCs, which are typically biconcave discoids, take the shape that minimizes their membrane-bending energies, subject to the constraints of fixed area and volume. However...
Erythrocytes, commonly known as red blood cells, are the most abundant of the three types of cells present in the blood. On average, around two million new red blood cells are created every second. These cells have abiconcaveshape on both surfaces, allowing them to flow through capillaries an...

Many researchers used a cell membrane coating to maintain the relative stability of nanoparticles during circulation in a complex blood environment. RBCm as camouflage is used to extend circulation and immune escape, while the NP core contributes to high drug loading. The coated nanoparticles include ...
Quantitative analysis of red blood cell (RBC) shapes was performed in 79 patients with β-thalassemia/HbE disease, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Most patients had many abnormal RBC shapes, namely: torocytes, codocytes, dacryocytes, keratocytes, and schizocytes with a reduction in...
The meaning of RED BLOOD CELL is any of the hemoglobin-containing cells that carry oxygen to the tissues and in mammals are typically biconcave disks which lack a nucleus and cellular organelles and are formed from nucleated cells of the red bone marrow
Structure and Adaptations of Red Blood Cells to their Function Biconcave ShapeOne of the most important adaptations of the red cells is their general shape. Generally, erythrocytes are shaped like a doughnut, without a hole in the middle. This is an important adaptation that allows the cell to...

Specifically, we focus on the biomimicry of human red blood cells (RBCs), as they are a relatively simple cell model that can remain in circulation for up to 120 days11. We discuss the key aspects that provide RBCs with such exceptional biocompatibility (like size, shape, lipid composition,...
