Carmustine-Induced Phosphatidylserine Translocation in the Erythrocyte Membrane
The nitrosourea alkylating agent, carmustine, is used as chemotherapeutic drug in several malignancies. The substance triggers tumor cell apoptosis. Side effects of carmustine include myelotoxicity with anemia.

Eryptosis in polycythemia vera and essential thrombocythemia*
Aim: Polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET) are Philadelphia–negative myeloproliferative neoplasms with documented apoptosis impairment at the level of hematopoietic stem cell. However, so far no study has evaluated apoptosis of circulating blood neoplastic cells, including the suicidal death of erythrocytes – eryptosis.

Red blood cell endothelial nitric oxide synthase: A major player in regulating cardiovascular health
Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) have traditionally been seen as simple carriers of gases and nutrients in the body. One important non‐canonical function of RBCs in the cardiovascular system is the regulation of nitric oxide (NO) metabolism. It has been shown that RBCs can scavenge NO, transport NO metabolites and produce NO in hypoxic conditions ...

Eryptosis: An Erythrocyte’s Suicidal Type of Cell Death [PDF]
Erythrocytes play an important role in oxygen and carbon dioxide transport. Although erythrocytes possess no nucleus or mitochondria, they fulfil several metabolic activities namely, the Embden-Meyerhof pathway, as well as the hexose monophosphate shunt.

In vivo and in silico toxicological effects of Calea phyllolepis extracts Standardized on 6‐epi‐β‐Verbesinol Coumarate. ABSTRACT Medicinal plants are traditionally used in folk medicine. Still, there is a misconception about the safety/efficacy of natural treatments, which results in few studies on the toxic, genotoxic, and mutagenic potential of ...

Eryptosis as an Underlying Mechanism in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus-Related Anemia
Background: The progression of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) leads to anemia in patients, adversely affecting prognosis. The diverse causes of anemia may include excessive eryptosis or premature suicidal erythrocyte death characterized by cell ...
