Detailed explanation-1: -Mature red blood cells (RBCs) or erythrocytes/erythroid cells in a complex process called erythropoiesis are produced from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) [5, 6, 7]. Erythroblasts (precursors of RBCs) are difficult to proliferate in vitro [2, 8, 9].
Detailed explanation-2: -They are produced in the red bone marrow by a process called erythropoiesis. During this process, stem cell derived erythroid precursors undergo a series of morphological changes to become mature erythrocytes. These mature RBCs are released into the bloodstream, where they survive between 100 to 120 days.
Detailed explanation-3: -The standard model of erythropoiesis starts with hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow (BM), giving rise to multipotent progenitors that go on to erythroid-committed precursors to mature RBC.
Detailed explanation-4: -Erythrocyte is an anucleate biconcave cell that transports oxygen with the presence of haemoglobin. It is a fully mature red blood cell.
