Myospherulosis has recently been shown to be composed of altered erythrocytes. Mysopherules have been produced in vivo and in vitro using a petrolatum-based tetracycline antibiotic ointment (Achromycin). In the reported study, myospherules were produced in vitro using either lanolin or petrolatum, the two components of the vehicle of this ointment. Additionally, human fat produced myospherules in vitro.
近来研究表明，类球体肌病是由变形红细胞构成。类球体可通过使用含凡士林的四环素抗生素软膏（四环素）在体内和体外生成。在该报道的研究中，类球体可利用羊毛脂或凡士林（该软膏基质的两种成分）在体外生成。此外，人体脂肪在体外也能生成类球体。
