Erythropoietins and Erythropoiesis Molecular, Cellular, Preclinical, and Clinical Biology /

Research on, and interest in, red blood cell formation spans several centuries and was thought to have peaked in the 1980s with the cloning of the eryth- poietin (EPO) gene. In the years subsequent to the cloning of EPO and its expression as a recombinant protein, much was written about EPO. Althoug...
