Stimulation of Suicidal Erythrocyte Death by Increased Extracellular Phosphate Concentrations

Stimulation of Suicidal Erythrocyte Death by Increased Extracellular Phosphate Concentrations

Background/Aim: Anemia in renal insufficiency results in part from impaired erythrocyte formation due to erythropoietin and iron deficiency. Beyond that, renal insufficiency enhances eryptosis, the suicidal erythrocyte death characterized by phosphatidylserine-exposure at the erythrocyte surface. Er...
