AbstractErythrophagocytosis is a complex multiphysics process involving recognizing, engulfing, and digesting aged or diseased red blood cells (RBCs) by phagocytic cells. Biochemical signaling pathways mediated by ligand-receptor engagement have been considered as key factors in initiating and driving the phagocytosis of abnormal RBCs by tissue-resident macrophages in the spleen and the liver. However, growing evidence has underscored the effect of the stiffness of RBCs in modulating the engulfment proc
