Prognostic significance of endogenous erythropoietin in long-term outcome of patients with acute decompensated heart failure [PDF]
Aims Although previous reports suggest that an elevated endogenous erythropoietin (EPO) level is associated with worse clinical outcomes in chronic heart failure (HF) patients, the prognostic implication of EPO in patients with acute decompensated HF ...

Primary familial and congenital polycythemia is characterized by erythropoietin hypersensitivity of erythroid progenitors due to germline nonsense or frameshift mutations in the erythropoietin receptor gene.

Age-dependent expression of the erythropoietin gene in rat liver and kidneys [PDF]
Using RNAse protection, we have made quantitative measurements of erythropoietin (EPO) mRNA in liver and kidneys of developing rats (days 1-54), to determine the relative contribution of both organs to the total EPO mRNA, to monitor changes which occur ...

Macrophages as novel target cells for erythropoietin
Background Our original demonstration of immunomodulatory effects of erythropoietin in multiple myeloma led us to the search for the cells in the immune system that are direct targets for erythropoietin.

Neuronal damage after moderate hypoxia and erythropoietin
Both mild hypoxia and exogenous erythropoietin may protect the brain against subsequent severe hypoxia, and the conditioning effect of transient hypoxia is partly mediated by hypoxia-induced endogenous erythropoietin.

The use of genes for performance enhancement: doping or therapy? [PDF]
Recent biotechnological advances have permitted the manipulation of genetic sequences to treat several diseases in a process called gene therapy. However, the advance of gene therapy has opened the door to the possibility of using genetic manipulation ...

Erythrocytes and Erythropoietin [PDF]
This special issue focuses on erythrocytes and erythropoietin including original research and review articles on the cellular physiology of erythrocytes and of erythrocyte-associated disorders. Moreover, the special issue includes papers on the action of erythropoietin and hypoxia-inducible factors on a cellular level.

Evaluation of the stability of human erythropoietin in samples for radioimmunoassay [PDF]
Radioimmunoassays for erythropoietin are limited so far to a few specialized laboratories and this requires transport and storage of samples. We therefore tested the stability of immunoreactive erythropoietin in serum and plasma samples obtained from a ...

BACKGROUND: Erythropoietic-stimulating agents such as erythropoietin have been used as part of patient blood management programs to reduce or even avoid the use of allogeneic blood transfusions.

Background Absolute polycythemia can be primary or secondary. Erythropoietin-producing diseases (for example, hypoxia) are the major cause of secondary polycythemia. There are reports of polycythemia secondary to hydronephrosis. However, to our knowledge,
