Erythrocytes and Erythropoietin [PDF]
This special issue focuses on erythrocytes and erythropoietin including original research and review articles on the cellular physiology of erythrocytes and of erythrocyte-associated disorders. Moreover, the special issue includes papers on the action of erythropoietin and hypoxia-inducible factors on a cellular level.

Uptake of purines in Plasmodium falciparum-infected human erythrocytes is mostly mediated by the human Equilibrative Nucleoside Transporter and the human Facilitative Nucleobase Transporter [PDF]
<b>Background</b>: Plasmodium parasites are unable to synthesize purines de novo and have to salvage them from the host. Due to this limitation in the parasite, purine transporters have been an area of focus in the search for anti-malarial ...

Invasion and persistent intracellular colonization of erythrocytes : A unique parasitic strategy of the emerging pathogen Bartonella [PDF]
The expanding genus Bartonella includes zoonotic and human-specific pathogens that can cause a wide range of clinical manifestations. A productive infection allowing bacterial transmission by blood-sucking arthropods is marked by an intraerythrocytic ...

Plasmodium falciparum antigens on the surface of the gametocyte-infected erythrocyte. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The asexual blood stages of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum produce highly immunogenic polymorphic antigens that are expressed on the surface of the host cell.

Invasion pathways and malaria severity in Kenyan Plasmodium falciparum clinical isolates. [PDF]
The invasion of erythrocytes by Plasmodium falciparum occurs through multiple pathways that can be studied in vitro by examining the invasion of erythrocytes treated with enzymes such as neuraminidase, trypsin, and chymotrypsin.

High Glucose Concentrations Affect Band 3 Protein in Human Erythrocytes
Hyperglycemia is considered a threat for cell homeostasis, as it is associated to oxidative stress (OS). As erythrocytes are continuously exposed to OS, this study was conceived to verify the impact of either diabetic conditions attested to by glycated ...
