Role of excretory graft function for erythropoietin formation after renal transplantation [PDF]
To examine the role of renal excretory function for erythropoietin (EPO) formation we have determined the kinetics of plasma immunoreactive EPO (irEPO) in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing renal allotransplantation (RTX).

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,

Serum immunoreactive erythropoietin of children in health and disease [PDF]
Serum immunoreactive erythropoietin (siEPO) was determined in cord serum from neonates (n = 97, gestational age 36-43 weeks), in healthy children from birth to adolescence (n = 260) and in children with haematological (n = 30), renal (n = 10) and ...

Triggering of erythropoietin production by hypoxia is inhibited by respiratory and metabolic acidosis [PDF]
Erythropoietin (EPO) production in response to hypoxic hypoxia is known to be attenuated by simultaneous hypercapnia. This study aimed to investigate whether this inhibitory effect of hypercapnia is 1) a direct effect of carbon dioxide or mediated by ...

Experimental acute myocardial infarction in rats: HIF-1 alpha, caspase-3, erythropoietin and erythropoietin receptor expression and the cardioprotective effects of two different erythropoietin doses [PDF]
The cardioprotective effects of two different doses of erythropoietin administration were analyzed in rats with experimental myocardial infarction.

Oxygen-dependent expression of the erythropoietin gene in rat hepatocytes in vitro [PDF]
Since in juvenile rats the liver is the predominant site of erythropoietin (EPO) gene expression, we have used primary cultures of juvenile rat hepatocytes to establish and in vitro system for investigation of oxygen-dependent EPO formation.

Erythropoietin reduces storage lesions and decreases apoptosis indices in blood bank red blood cells
Background: Recent evidence shows a selective destruction of the youngest circulating red blood cells (neocytolysis) trigged by a drop in erythropoietin levels.

Decline of erythropoietin formation at continuous hypoxia is not due to feedback inhibition [PDF]
Serum erythropoietin (EPO) levels in response to hypoxia are known to decline before an increase in blood oxygen carrying capacity. To define the possible mechanisms underlying this phenomenon, we have investigated 1) how renal EPO mRNA content and EPO ...

Erythropoiesis stimulating agents are widely used for the treatment of anemia. Recently, we reported erythroid expansion with impaired B lymphopoiesis and loss of trabecular bone in C57BL/6 mice following ten days of treatment with low-dose short acting ...

Serum erythropoietin and erythropoiesis in primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism: effect of parathyroidectomy [PDF]
Primary as well as secondary hyperparathyroidism may be associated with anemia, and parathyroidectomy (PTx) may improve or even heal it. The precise link between the two conditions is still matter of discussion.
