This study introduces an in-depth flow cytometric method for the analysis of nucleated erythroid progenitors during bone marrow regeneration. Initial immunophenotypic analysis with the conventional erythroid-associated markers CD36, CD71 and CD235a was supplemented with the analysis of additional markers, including CD105, CD117, CD45, CD38 and cell-scattered light characteristics. Our data show that the expression of CD105 and CD117 is critical for the distinction between four phenotypically different developmental stages of nucleated erythroid progenitors: pro-erythroblasts, basophilic erythroblasts, polychromatophilic erythroblasts and orthochromatophilic erythroblasts. CD105 antigen expression was specifically associated with pro-erythroblasts and basophilic erythroblasts, whereas CD117 was expressed at the earliest pro-erythroblast stage. Both antigens were progressively lost throughout the course of differentiation. These data allow for the identification of aberrant erythroid development in acute erythroid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.

Single-cell sequencing of lineage negative (Lin-) cells from patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) revealed a reduction in ferritin heavy chain 1 (FTH1) levels, yet the significance of this decrease in FTH1 in the pathophysiology of MDS remains unclear. In this study, we evaluated the role of FTH1 in patients with MDS. The mRNA expression of FTH1 in GlycoA nucleated erythrocytes from MDS patients was significantly lower than that in control group.

Mammalian red blood cells are generated via a terminal erythroid differentiation pathway culminating in cell polarization and enucleation. Actin filament polymerization is critical for enucleation, but the molecular regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. We utilized publicly available RNA-seq and proteomics datasets to mine for actin-binding proteins and actin-nucleation factors differentially expressed during human erythroid differentiation and discovered that a focal adhesion protein-Tensin-1-dramatically increases in expression late in differentiation.

Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1), a key regulator of the G2/M phase in mitosis, is frequently overexpressed in numerous tumors. Although PLK1 inhibitors have emerged as promising therapeutic agents for cancer, their use has been linked to significant anemia in a subset of patients, yet the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this study, we utilized an human umbilical cord blood-derived CD34 cell-based erythroid differentiation system, alongside a murine model, to investigate the impact of PLK1 inhibitors on erythropoiesis.

Background: Erythroid cells contribute to embryonic organ development and adult tissue repair supplying oxygen to tissues. During mouse development, the primitive erythroid cells produced in the extraembryonic blood islands of the yolk sac begin to circulate as immature and nucleated erythroblasts with the onset of cardiac contractions around embryonic day 9.5 (E9.

Objectives: Our previous study showed that a high pre-transplant nucleated cell count in the bone marrow is associated with increased non-relapse mortality (NRM) and decreased overall survival (OS) in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in remission. In this retrospective multicenter study, we aimed to examine the association between nucleated cell subfractions and transplant outcomes using the same patient cohort as our previous study.
Methods: This study included patients with ALL who underwent their first allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) between 2010 and 2022.
