Red cell and platelet-derived microparticles are increased in G6PD-deficient subjects
In response to oxidative stress and during apoptosis, cells often shed microparticles (MPs), submicron elements carrying phosphatidylserine and protein antigens. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)-deficient cells are extremely sensitive to oxidative damage that may lead to the formation of MPs...
