How are red blood cells recycled?

Eventually the RBCs are unable to spring back into shape as they pass through capillaries and this lack of flexibility traps old RBCs in the spleen. The damaged RBCs are phagocytosed by macrophages, the proteins are hydrolyzed, iron is concentrated in transferrin and the chemical frame of the heme structure is partially disassembled and ultimately eliminated as part of the bile used in digestion. Millions of RBCs are born and recycled each day to maintain a constant level of oxygen in tissues .
