First, although it was possible to characterize the relative proportion of mononuclear white blood cell types in the blood samples provided using the techniques developed by Accomando et al. (2014) and Houseman et al. (2012) to characterize cell type variation, and we found that protective parenting was associated with the relative proportion of monocytes in the mononuclear white blood cell sample, that proportion was not associated with youth reports of their health in young adulthood.

Patients with Diamond - Blackfan anemia (DBA)-- an inherited disorder which disrupts the development of red cells in affected patients, but which does not affect the development of other blood cell types — offer researchers a particularly useful model for the study of these proteins.

This basic research study provides an answer to one of the key questions within the field of biology: How is the development of blood cell types regulated after the original genetic information has been transcribed into messenger RNA? (stemcellsportal.com)
