EFFECT OF ERYTHROPOIETIN ON CYTOKINE PRODUCTION BY STEM CELLS
Erythropoietin (EPO) is mainly used to stimulate erythropoiesis. Its cytoprotective effects upon other cells of the human body and animals were recently shown, in particular, anti-apoptotic effect was observed.

Structure of the Erythropoietin Receptor
Despite extensive studies, the structure of the erythropoietin receptor remains little understood. cDNAs encoding the human and murine erythropoietin receptors have been cloned and the structure of these proteins is discussed. Although the proteins encoded by these cDNAs play key roles in erythropoietin binding and in erythropoietin signal transduction,

Background In most patients, anemia is present when myelodysplastic syndrome is diagnosed. Although darbepoetin α is the first-choice supportive therapy for low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome, half of all patients develop a loss of response to darbepoetin

Definition of a family of tissue-protective cytokines using functional cluster analysis: a proof-of-concept study [PDF]
The discovery of the tissue-protective activities of erythropoietin (EPO) has underlined the importance of some cytokines in tissue-protection, repair, and remodeling.

Possible erythropoietin pharmacotherapeutic targets on painful diabetic neuropathy in rats [PDF]
Erythropoietin is a renal cytokine involved in regulating hematopoiesis. Current evidence indicates that erythropoietin exerts pleiotropic effects in animal models.

Second-generation non-hematopoietic erythropoietin-derived peptide for neuroprotection
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a well-known erythropoietic cytokine having a tissue-protective effect in various tissues against hypoxic stress, including the brain. Thus, its recombinants may function as neuroprotective compounds. However, despite considerable

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.

Transferrin receptor-2 is a transmembrane protein whose expression is restricted to hepatocytes and erythroid cells. Transferrin receptor-2 has a regulatory function in iron homeostasis, since its inactivation causes systemic iron overload.

Adding epoetin alfa to intense dose-dense adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer : randomized clinical trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The AGO-ETC trial compared 5-year relapse-free survival of intense dose-dense (IDD) sequential chemotherapy with epirubicin (E), paclitaxel (T), and cyclophosphamide (C) (IDD-ETC) every 2 weeks vs conventional scheduled epirubicin ...
