Understanding the life cycle of Plasmodium vivax is fundamental for developing strategies
aimed at controlling and eliminating this parasitic species. Although advances in omic …

Red blood cells (RBCs) generate microvesicles to remove damaged cell constituents such
as oxidized hemoglobin and damaged membrane constituents, and thereby prolong their …

More than one-third of the world's population is exposed to Plasmodium vivax malaria,
mainly in Asia. P. vivax preferentially invades reticulocytes (immature red blood cells) …

The spleen, the largest secondary lymphoid organ in humans, not only fulfils a broad range
of immune functions, but also plays an important role in red blood cell's (RBC) life cycle …

Introduction: Recently, the classification of two 'novel'organs, the mesentere and interstitium,
was saluted as a scientific breakthrough and disseminated into mainstream media. The …

Reticulocytes produced in the bone marrow undergo maturation in the bloodstream to give
rise to erythrocytes. Although the proteome of circulating red cells has been the subject of …

Reticulocytes, the precursors of erythrocytes, undergo drastic alterations in cell size, shape,
and deformability during maturation. Experimental evidence suggests that young …

Erythrocytes are formed from the enucleation of erythroblasts in the bone marrow, and as
erythrocytes develop from immature reticulocytes into mature normocytes, they undergo …

Changes to the membrane proteins and rearrangement of the cytoskeleton must occur for a
reticulocyte to mature into a red blood cell (RBC). Different mechanisms of reticulocyte …

Abstract Reticulocyte-derived exosomes (Rex), extracellular vesicles of endocytic origin,
were initially discovered as a cargo-disposal mechanism of obsolete proteins in the …
