During the course of their natural ageing and upon injury, anucleate erythrocytes can
undergo an unconventional apoptosis-like cell death, termed eryptosis. Eryptotic …

In analogy to apoptosis of nucleated cells, erythrocytes may enter eryptosis characterized by
cell shrinkage and cell membrane scrambling. Eryptotic erythrocytes are rapidly cleared …

Red blood cells (RBCs) and platelets contribute to the coagulation capacity in bleeding and
thrombotic disorders. The thrombin generation (TG) process is considered to reflect the …

Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is a life-saving treatment for several pathologies. RBCs for
transfusion are stored refrigerated in a preservative solution, which extends their shelf-life for …

Nowadays, numerous biomedical studies performed on natural compounds and plant
extracts aim to obtain highly selective pharmacological activities without unwanted toxic …

Eryptosis is a programmed cell death-like process that occurs in red blood cells. Although
the red blood cells are anucleated, there are similarities between eryptosis and apoptosis …

End stage renal disease (ESRD) invariably leads to anemia which has been mainly
attributed to compromised release of erythropoietin from the defective kidneys with …

Red blood cell storage lesion (RSL) is a multifaceted biological phenomenon. It refers to
deterioration in RBC quality that is characterized by lethal and sub-lethal, reversible and …

Suicidal erythrocyte death or eryptosis contributes to or even accounts for anemia in a wide
variety of clinical conditions, such as iron deficiency, dehydration, hyperphosphatemia …

BACKGROUND Pathogen reduction treatment using riboflavin and ultraviolet light
illumination (Mirasol) effectively reduces the risk of transfusion‐transmitted infections. This …
