Enrichment of reticulocytes by lectin-mediated agglutination. 1981

C Tannert, and A Tsamaloukas

Bloods of both normal and anemic (bleeding anemia) rabbits as well as of a healthy man (blood group A1) have been treated with varying concentrations of the lectin anti-AHP. Under defined conditions, mature erythrocytes are agglutinated selectively whereas reticulocytes remain suspended as single cells in the supernatant fluid. With this procedure an enrichment of reticulocytes of about tenfold with a maximum recovery of nearly 100% was achieved.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011817	Rabbits	A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D012156	Reticulocytes	Immature ERYTHROCYTES. In humans, these are ERYTHROID CELLS that have just undergone extrusion of their CELL NUCLEUS. They still contain some organelles that gradually decrease in number as the cells mature. RIBOSOMES are last to disappear. Certain staining techniques cause components of the ribosomes to precipitate into characteristic "reticulum" (not the same as the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM), hence the name reticulocytes.	Reticulocyte

D004912	Erythrocytes	Red blood cells. Mature erythrocytes are non-nucleated, biconcave disks containing HEMOGLOBIN whose function is to transport OXYGEN.

D006384	Hemagglutination	The aggregation of ERYTHROCYTES by AGGLUTININS, including antibodies, lectins, and viral proteins (HEMAGGLUTINATION, VIRAL).	Hemagglutinations

D000017	ABO Blood-Group System	The major human blood type system which depends on the presence or absence of two antigens A and B. Type O occurs when neither A nor B is present and AB when both are present. A and B are genetic factors that determine the presence of enzymes for the synthesis of certain glycoproteins mainly in the red cell membrane.

D000740	Anemia	A reduction in the number of circulating ERYTHROCYTES or in the quantity of HEMOGLOBIN.	Anemias
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
