Background: Overhydrated hereditary stomatocytosis (OHSt) is a rare disorder characterized by abnormalities in erythrocytic volume homeostasis. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential for appropriate management and genetic counseling.
Methods: We present the case of a child with beta-thalassemia and a history of multiple blood transfusions.

Pannexin 1 (PANX1) was proposed to drive ATP release from red blood cells (RBCs) in response to stress conditions. Stomatin, a membrane protein regulating mechanosensitive channels, has been proposed to modulate PANX1 activity in non-erythroid cells. To determine whether stomatin modulates PANX1 activity in an erythroid context, we have (i) assessed the in situ stomatin-PANX1 interaction in RBCs, (ii) measured PANX1-stimulated activity in RBCs expressing stomatin or from OverHydrated Hereditary Stomatocytosis (OHSt) patients lacking stomatin, and in erythroid K562 cells invalidated for stomatin.

The bone marrow produces billions of reticulocytes daily. These reticulocytes mature into red blood cells by reducing their plasma membrane by 20% and ejecting or degrading residual internal organelles, membranes and proteins not required by the mature cell. This process occurs by autophagy, protein degradation and vesiculation but is not well understood.

In conditions of abdominal sepsis with indications of first- or second-stage shock, blood cells undergo significant ultrastructural changes that cause impaired gas exchange, changes in reactivity, and decompensation of organs and systems functions. This paper presents a cross-sectional prospective study aimed at researching the ultrastructure of blood cells in children experiencing abdominal septic shock against the background of generalized purulent peritonitis of appendicular origin. This study was conducted with 15 children aged 6-12 who were undergoing treatment for generalized appendicular purulent peritonitis, with first- or second-stage abdominal septic shock, in emergency care.
