Abstract

Erythropoietin is the primary and physiological regulator of erythropoiesis, that is, the production of red blood cells. It is a glycoprotein produced predominantly in the fetal liver and the adult kidney. It circulates into the adult bone marrow, and binds to its dimerizing receptor on the surface of erythroid progenitor cells to promote cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. Other nonhematopoietic roles of neuroprotection, cardioprotection, renoprotection, and wound healing have been reported.
