A research team has discovered a mechanism in which blood stem cells respond to acute, severe anemia, through lipoprotein metabolism modification. It has been known how immediate erythroid precursors ...
When acute anemia occurs, very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), which are involved in lipid transport, are broken down, releasing apolipoprotein E (ApoE). ApoE binds to its receptor (VLDLR) present on ...
