Tubular Erythropoietin Receptor Expression Mediates Erythropoietin-Induced Renoprotection

Erythropoietin and erythropoietin receptor expression in human cancer.

Erythropoietin (EPO) stimulates the growth of erythroblasts in the bone marrow (C. Lacombe and P. Mayeux, NEPHROL: DIAL: TRANSPLANT:, 14 (SUPPL: 2): 22-28, 1999). We report basal and hypoxia-stimulated expression of EPO and its receptor, EPOR, in human breast cancer cells, and we demonstrate EPO-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation and the proliferation of these cells in vitro. In 50 clinical sp...

Expression of erythropoietin and erythropoietin receptor in peritoneal endometriosis.

BACKGROUND Recent studies have indicated new physiological roles for erythropoietin (Epo) unrelated to erythropoiesis. We previously demonstrated that the Epo concentrations in peritoneal fluid from patients with stage I endometriosis were significantly higher than those with stages II, III and IV of the disease. Therefore, we hypothesized that Epo may play a role in the pathogenesis of endomet...

GATA-1 transactivates erythropoietin receptor gene, and erythropoietin receptor-mediated signals enhance GATA-1 gene expression.

Erythropoietin is a cytokine which specifically regulates the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells. The expression of erythropoietin receptor on the cell membrane of the progenitor cells is a critical event during the erythroid differentiation process. In order to clarify the tissue-specific and differentiation stage-specific expression of the erythropoietin receptor ...
