21. It also demonstrates hemolytic activity, causing lysis of erythrocytes . 22. In primitive erythrocyte precursors, HOXA9 expression is almost zero. 23. A tight junction is formed between the parasite and erythrocyte . 24. Trophozoites contained proteins implicated in erythrocyte remodeling and hemoglobin digestion. 25. Primitive and foetal erythrocytes however, have markedly different characteristics. 26. This is followed by the formation of infective gametocytes in the erythrocytes . 27. The asexual stages parasitize all cells in the erythrocyte series. 28. Erythrocyte aggregation also affects hemodynamic mechanisms in microcirculation and vascular control mechanisms.29. Nevertheless, several previously undetected physiologic functions of erythrocyte are largely neglected. 30. Macrophages remove senescent erythrocytes , leukocytes, and megakaryocytes by phagocytosis and digestion.
