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).
