  2. Erythropoiesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythropoiesis

    A feedback loop involving erythropoietin helps regulate the process of erythropoiesis so that, in non-disease states, the production of red blood cells is equal to the destruction of red blood cells and the red blood cell number is sufficient to sustain adequate tissue oxygen levels but not so high as to cause sludging, thrombosis, or stroke ...

  3. Zincke reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zincke_reaction

    A second addition of amine leads to the displacement of 2,4-dinitroaniline (5) and formation of the König salt [5] (6a and 6b). The trans-cis-trans isomer of the König salt ( 6a ) can react by either sigmatropic rearrangement or nucleophilic addition of a zwitterionic intermediate to give cyclized intermediate ( 7 ). [ 6 ]

  4. Nitration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitration

    The phrase ipso nitration was first used by Perrin and Skinner in 1971, in an investigation into chloroanisole nitration. [18] In one protocol, 4-chloro- n -butylbenzene is reacted with sodium nitrite in t -butanol in the presence of 0.5 mol% Pd 2 (dba) 3 , a biarylphosphine ligand and a phase-transfer catalyst to provide 4-nitro- n -butylbenzene.

  5. Rouleaux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rouleaux

    Rouleaux (singular is rouleau) are stacks or aggregations of red blood cells (RBCs) that form because of the unique discoid shape of the cells in vertebrates. The flat surface of the discoid RBCs gives them a large surface area to make contact with and stick to each other; thus forming a rouleau.

  6. Heinz body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_body

    Damaged cells are cleared by macrophages in the spleen, where the precipitate and damaged membrane are removed, leading to characteristic "bite cells". The denaturing process is irreversible and the continual elimination of damaged cells leads to Heinz body anemia. There are several pathways leading to the hemoglobin damage.

  7. Chlorobenzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorobenzene

    Chlorobenzene (abbreviated PhCl) is an aryl chloride and the simplest of the chlorobenzenes, consisting of a benzene ring substituted with one chlorine atom. Its chemical formula is C 6 H 5 Cl. This colorless, flammable liquid is a common solvent and a widely used intermediate in the manufacture of other chemicals.

  8. Red blood cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_blood_cell

    Red blood cells (RBCs), referred to as erythrocytes (from Ancient Greek erythros 'red' and kytos 'hollow vessel', with -cyte translated as 'cell' in modern usage) in academia and medical publishing, also known as red cells, [1] erythroid cells, and rarely haematids, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen (O 2) to the body tissues—via ...

  9. Peripheral blood mononuclear cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_blood...

    A peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) is any peripheral blood cell having a round nucleus. [1] These cells consist of lymphocytes (T cells, B cells, NK cells) and monocytes, whereas erythrocytes and platelets have no nuclei, and granulocytes (neutrophils, basophils, and eosinophils) have multi-lobed nuclei. In humans, lymphocytes make up ...
