| pubmed-article:20682001 | pubmed:abstractText | The CD95 pathway is a potent inducer of apoptosis in nucleated cells and this death receptor is important for proper blood cell development. Although it is expressed in red blood cells, its functional role in erythrocytes is not well documented. These anucleated cells can undergo cell death via eryptosis, a process showing similarities to apoptosis of nucleated cells. This mode of cell death is mainly triggered by oxidative stress or energy depletion. | lld:pubmed |
