Sickle red blood cell/Siglec-9 interactions contribute to neutrophil activation in SCD and are associated with survival

open access: yesBlood Red Cells & Iron
: Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin-9 (Siglec-9) is a neutrophil inhibitory receptor. Prior studies have shown that sickle red blood cells (SS RBCs) abnormally engage neutrophil Siglec-9, suggesting that SS RBCs may not be able to ...

Red Blood Cells: Chasing Interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Human red blood cells (RBC) are highly differentiated cells that have lost all organelles and most intracellular machineries during their maturation process.

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

PIEZO1-driven echinocytosis in red blood cells is independent of calcium and water fluxes

open access: yesBlood Red Cells & Iron
: In red blood cells (RBCs), activation of the mechanosensitive channel PIEZO1 is traditionally thought to induce a large Ca 2+ influx, leading to activation of the Gárdos channel (KCNN4), cell dehydration, and echinocytosis.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

Pyruvate kinase activators in the context of erythropoiesis defects

open access: yesBlood Red Cells & Iron
: Pyruvate kinase activators are a promising class of small molecules that boost glycolytic flux and influence cellular energy metabolism. This review covers the development of pyruvate kinase activation as a therapeutic strategy and its impact on ...

Superior survival of ex vivo cultured human reticulocytes following transfusion into mice

open access: yesHaematologica, 2017
The generation of cultured red blood cells from stem cell sources may fill an unmet clinical need for transfusion-dependent patients, particularly in countries that lack a sufficient and safe blood supply.

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...

Diagnosis, management, and outcomes of tumor-associated erythrocytosis

open access: yesBlood Red Cells & Iron
: Secondary erythrocytosis (SE) refers to elevated hemoglobin (>160 g/L in females; >165 g/L in males) not because of an underlying myeloproliferative neoplasm. Tumor-associated erythrocytosis (TAE) is a rare cause of SE, with limited data on tumor types,
