The differentiation of HSC (hematopoietic stem cell) into RBC (red blood cell) is a precise and complex process, which is tightly regulated from lineage determination to terminal differentiation, enucleation and organelle clearance. The disorders of red blood cell production can lead to various diseases. The key to treating these diseases is to clarify the exact regulation mechanism of erythroid development. This review mainly summarizes the recent research on the regulatory factors at the molecular level, including the regulation of transcription, post-transcription, translation and post-translation. It will help to improve the regulatory network of erythroid differentiation, understand the pathogenesis of erythrocyte dysplasia and find new treatment strategy.
