A novel process for transcellular hemoglobin transport from macrophages to cancer cells
Abstract Hemoglobin (Hb) performs its physiological function within the erythrocyte. Extracellular Hb has prooxidative and proinflammatory properties and is therefore sequestered by haptoglobin and bound by the CD163 receptor on macrophages. In the present study, we demonstrate a novel process of Hb...
