Poor harvest of peripheral blood stem cell in donors with microcytic red blood cells.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Recently, long-standing elevations of soluble growth factors released from platelets (PLTs) after contact with artificial surfaces during dialysis were described. They could be jointly responsible for the high frequency of death from cardiovascular diseases in dialysis patients. There are no comparable data ...
