    Chuvash erythrocytosis or Chuvash polycythemia is an autosomal recessive form of erythrocytosis endemic in patients from the Chuvash Republic in Russia. Chuvash erythrocytosis is associated with homozygosity for a C598T mutation in the von Hippel–Lindau gene ( VHL ), which is needed for the destruction of hypoxia-inducible factors in the ...

    These clathrin-coated pits are short lived and serve only to form a vesicle for transfer of particles to the lysosome. The clathrin-coated pit invaginates into the cytosol and forms a clathrin-coated vesicle. The clathrin proteins will then dissociate. [2] What is left is known as an early endosome. The early endosome merges with a late endosome.

    It is stimulated by decreased O 2 in circulation, which is detected by the kidneys, which then secrete the hormone erythropoietin. [2] This hormone stimulates proliferation and differentiation of red cell precursors, which activates increased erythropoiesis in the hemopoietic tissues, ultimately producing red blood cells (erythrocytes). [2]

    I think merging is not a good idea. Because I think there is a real difference between Erythrocytosis and Polycytemia (Vera). While Erythrocytosis is present in every body but over over exposed in some bodies of good RBC, while Polycytemia (Vera) is a form caused by a defective DNA structure and need treatment.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematocrit

    The hematocrit (/ h ɪ ˈ m æ t ə k r ɪ t /) (Ht or HCT), also known by several other names, is the volume percentage (vol%) of red blood cells (RBCs) in blood, [1] [2] measured as part of a blood test. [3] The measurement depends on the number and size of red blood cells. [3] It is normally 40.7–50.3% for males and 36.1–44.3% for ...

    Otherwise, treatment is divided based on the local versus systemic spread of its clonal plasma cells. Patients with one or two plasmacytoma bone lesions and no clonal plasma cells in their bone marrow biopsy specimens are treated by surgical removal or radiotherapy of their tumors. These treatments can relieve many of the syndromes clinical ...
