Oxidative stress due to aluminum exposure induces eryptosis which is prevented by erythropoietin
The widespread use of aluminum (Al) provides easy exposure of humans to the metal and its accumulation remains a potential problem. In vivo and in vitro assays have associated Al overload with anemia. To better understand the mechanisms by which Al affects human erythrocytes, morphological and bioch...
