- Specialized
- Of note, genetic manipulation of lincRNA-EPS expression did not alter erythroid differentiation, which suggests that its biological activities may be limited to influencing the apoptotic pathway.
- erythroid cells
- erythroid progenitors
- erythroid progenitor cell line
Examples
-
The study focused on the maturation of erythroid precursors in the bone marrow.
-
The transition from PSCs to erythroid progenitor cell lines is associated with extensive chromatin remodeling that ensures activation of erythroid-specific genes.

So here's an example region which is active in HSCS and erythroid cells but not in B cells.
-
Genetic manipulation of erythroid progenitor cell lines provides the possibility of developing on-and-off strategies.

It will therefore be interesting to investigate this new facet of erythroid development and to extend the scope of known IncRNA actions.

IFN- promotes anemia related to a decreased number of active erythroid progenitors; the presence of anti-inflammatory cytokines results in increased erythroid apoptosis.

It is therefore conceivable that nuclear condensation and enucleation of erythroid cells generated in the presence of glucocorticoids might be improved by adding histone deacetylase activators in phase 3 cultures.

Erythroid cells are essential for carrying oxygen in the bloodstream.
-
Doctors examine erythroid levels to diagnose various blood disorders.

Morphology
erythroid = erythro (opaque) = erythro + oid
The combining form 'erythro' and the suffix '-oid' are both specialized and not transparent to general learners.
Etymology
The word erythroid comes from the Greek root erythro- meaning 'red' and the ending -oid meaning 'like', as in humanoid. So erythroid means 'red-like' and is used for cells that are related to red blood cells.
