Simvastatin, a Novel Stimulator of Eryptosis, the Suicidal Erythrocyte Death
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017 Background/Aims: The 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-Coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor simvastatin has been shown to trigger apoptosis of several cell types. The substance has thus been proposed as an additional treatment of malignancy.

Enhanced Eryptosis Following Exposure to Carnosic Acid
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015 Background/Aims: The phenolic abietane diterpene component of rosemary and sage, carnosic acid, may either induce or inhibit apoptosis of nucleated cells. The mechanisms involved in the effects of carnosic acid include altered mitochondrial function and gene expression.

Programmed Erythrocyte Death Following in Vitro Treosulfan Treatment
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015 Background/Aims: The cytotoxic drug Treosulfan is clinically used for the treatment of malignancy. A common side effect of Treosulfan treatment is anemia. Treosulfan is at least partially effective by triggering apoptosis of tumor cells.

Breakdown of Phosphatidylserine Asymmetry Following Treatment of Erythrocytes with Lumefantrine
Toxins, 2014 Background: Lumefantrine, a commonly used antimalarial drug, inhibits hemozoin formation in parasites. Several other antimalarial substances counteract parasitemia by triggering suicidal death or eryptosis of infected erythrocytes.

071 | Decoding eryptosis: human red blood cells response to xenobiotic-induced stress
Journal of Biological ResearchEryptosis is the programmed death of human red blood cells and shares several key features with apoptosis of nucleated cells. This physiological process plays an important role in maintaining erythrocyte homeostasis by ensuring the timely removal of ...
