During prolonged hypoxia, hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) mediate an increase in erythropoiesis, leading to an increased red blood cell (RBC) mass and polycythemia. Upon return to normoxia, the increased RBC mass is abruptly overcorrected by the preferential destruction of hypoxia-formed young RBCs, a phenomenon termed neocytolysis. The molecular and biochemical mechanisms involved in neocytolysis are unknown. We developed a murine model of neocytolysis by exposing mice to 12 % oxygen for 10 days followed by return to normoxia. Upon return to normoxia, there was excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in RBCs from an increased reticulocyte mitochondrial mass correlating with decreased Bnip3L transcripts (Bnip3L mediates reticulocyte mitophagy) and reduced catalase activity. During hypoxia, upregulated miR-21 resulted in low catalase activity in young RBCs. Furthermore, neocytolysis was attenuated by antioxidants and plasma catalase and blunted in mice that had constitutively high expression of HIFs. Among human neonates studied, we report data supporting the existence of neocytolysis during the first week of life. Together, these experiments indicate that the major mechanisms causing neocytolysis involve (1) production of young RBCs with low catalase during hypoxia and (2) lysis of the young RBCs after return to normoxia, mediated by ROS from an increased mitochondrial mass.
