Exploring Transcriptomic Landscapes in Red Blood Cells, in Their Extracellular Vesicles and on a Single-Cell Level
25 Oct 2022
Abstract excerpt
Being enucleated, RBCs lack typical transcriptomes, but are known to contain small amounts of diverse long transcripts and microRNAs. However, the exact role and importance of these RNAs are lacking. Shedding of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from the plasma membrane constitutes an integral mechanism of RBC homeostasis, by which RBCs remove unnecessary cytoplasmic content and cell membrane. To study this further,...
