In adults, mature erythrocytes develop as a result of erythropoiesis from bone marrow-located hematopoietic stem cells through a gradual and consequent process that includes stepwise formation of myeloid progenitors, megakaryocytic-erythroid progenitors, burst-forming unit-erythroids (BFU-e) and colony-forming unit-erythroids (CFU-e), proerythroblasts, basophilic, polychromatic, and orthochromatic erythroblasts, reticulocytes, and eventually mature erythrocytes [30, 31]
Both have generated extraordinary interest in clinical and research communities for their ability to influence body weight, blood glucose regulation, and metabolic function but they work through fundamentally different pathways and show very different results

How reliable is it
This phenomenon, known as the Reverse Warburg Effect, causes these fibroblasts to secrete lactate, which is subsequently used by cancer cells to enhance their mitochondrial activity and support proliferation
