This study shows that complete absence of GLUT1 in human erythroid cells does not impair differentiation or membrane properties, but leads to metabolic changes and increased oxidative stress.

The paper shows that Plasmodium falciparum invasion of red blood cells does not require basigin's interaction with MCT1, as invasion remains unaffected by disrupting this interaction or removing the basigin transmembrane domain.

This study characterizes four macrophage subtypes using proteomics and functional assays, showing M2c macrophages upregulate pro-inflammatory markers and dexamethasone induces partial repolarization from M1 to M2c.

This study uses reticulocytes from an immortalized erythroblast cell line to investigate host receptor roles in malaria invasion, showing basigin's essential function and cyclophilin B's non-requirement.
