Human erythroid cell maturation
Erythroid cells display a number of changes as they mature. Early cells are nucleated and display CD71 and CD235a. As cell mature they lose CD71 and eventually become enucleated. After enucleation RNA is retained in reticulocytes but is also lost as cells become mature erythrocytes. Shaded area show cells with a nucleus.
