High serum erythropoietin levels are normalized during treatment of congestive heart failure with enalapril. J Intern Med 1989;226:257- 60.Fyhrquist F, Karppinen K, Honkanen T, Saijonmaa O, Rosenlof K. High serum erythropoietin levels are normalized during treatment of congestive heart failure ...
The mean serum EPO level was higher before treatment (61 +/- 14 mU/ml) than that at 3 days (38 +/- 10 mU/ml, P < 0.01) or at recall (32 +/- 7 mU/ml, P < 0.01). We conclude that nasal CPAP treatment of sleep-disordered breathing will reduce diurnal levels of EPO. 展开 ...
However, the erythropoietin level by itself cannot make a diagnosis. It needs to be interpreted in the context of the patient’s situation and along with other blood tests. Not only can the test help in anemia, but it is also helpful when the patient has too many red blood cells (polycyt...
The normal range for erythropoietin levels range from 2.6 to 18.5 milliunits per milliliter (mU/mL). There may be some variation between laboratories. It is important to review the results with your health care provider. What does high erythropoietin levels mean? The body will increase its eryt...
Correction of cancer anemia--impact on disease course, prognosis and treatment efficacy, particularly for patients undergoing radiotherapy. Almost one cancer patient in two is anemic, with a correspondingly poorer prognosis and quality of life. A low blood hemoglobin level seems to directly imp... ...
application of EPO in cancer patients under anticancer treatment should be cautious. Advances of nonerythropoietic EPO derivatives Due to the low affinity of TPR, a high concentration of EPO is required to exert tissue-protective and immunoregulatory effects. However, a high serum concentration of ...

Moreover, the diseases and the treatment regimens are different for each patient and not completely uniform between the EPO and No EPO groups. However, age and hemoglobin level appear to have no role. In fact the patients in the EPO group, who responded better, may have been more ill ...
Endogenous serum levels of EPO were significantly increased in all patients (100–5700 mU/ml), but three of four responders had a relatively low baseline level. The effective red cell iron turnover (RCIT) improved in two responding patients and even normalized in one patient. This increase in...
Erythropoietin is known as the requisite cytokine for red blood cell production. Its receptor, expressed at a high level on erythroid progenitor/precursor cells, is also found on endothelial, neural, and other cell types. Erythropoietin and erythropoietin receptor expression in the developing and adult...
