Effect of protein deprivation on extrarenal erythropoietin production.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The production of erythropoietin by rats fed a protein-deficient diet is markedly decreased. This defect can be rapidly reversed by feeding protein. In the reported experiments we investigated the effect of protein deficiency on the extra-renal production of erythropoietin. The results indicate that the production of erythropoietin in nephrectomized animals is insensitive to protein depletion.

Erythropoietin production by fetal mouse liver cells in response to hypoxia and adenylate cyclase stimulation.
This study was done to investigate aspects of control of extrarenal erythropoietin (Ep) production. To this end we studied the effects of three stimuli of renal Ep production in the adult, i.e. hypoxia, cobalt, and activation of adenylate cyclase on Ep generation by cultured fetal mouse liver cells. The fetal liver was taken as a model for extrarenal Ep production because this organ is consider...
متن کاملIncreased Erythropoietin Production in Anephric Rats With Hyperplasia ofthe Reticuloendothelial System
Adult rats were subjected sequentially to ( 1) administration of colloidal carbon, zymosan, or gadolinium; (2) subtotal hepatectomy, bilateral nephrectomy, or sham operation; and (3) a 6-hr bout of hypoxia, starting 1 hr or 24 hr after the operation. Control animals received the respective vehicles. The erythropoietin (Ep) activity was assayed in exhypoxic polycythemic mice on the basis of 48-h...

متن کاملHepatic erythropoietin production in the lead-poisoned rat.
A NEMIA OF VARIOUS degrees of severity occurs following lead poisoning. This anemia is usually hypochromic with an increased reticulocyte count and increased red cell hemolysis. These changes are attributed to an inhibition of several enzymes involved in heme synthesis, an interference with the transport ofiron, as well as changes in the erythrocyte membrane.1 A defect in erythroid differentiat...
متن کاملDysfunction of fibroblasts of extrarenal origin underlies renal fibrosis and renal anemia in mice.
In chronic kidney disease, fibroblast dysfunction causes renal fibrosis and renal anemia. Renal fibrosis is mediated by the accumulation of myofibroblasts, whereas renal anemia is mediated by the reduced production of fibroblast-derived erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates erythropoiesis. Despite their importance in chronic kidney disease, the origin and regulatory mechanism of fibroblasts...
