The progression of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) leads to anemia in patients, adversely affecting prognosis. The diverse causes of anemia may include excessive eryptosis or premature suicidal erythrocyte death characterized by cell shrinkage and phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure on the cell surface. The present study explored if SLE enhances eryptosis and the underlying mechanisms.
