  • Title: Erythropoietin in blood volume regulation under real and simulated micro-g conditions.
    Author: Gunga HC, Kirsch K, Rocker L.
    Journal: J Gravit Physiol; 1996 Sep; 3(2):1-4. PubMed ID: 11540260.
    Abstract:
    Changes in erythropoietin levels in the blood were measured under several experimental conditions. Subjects were exposed to either bedrest, isolation and confinement, head-down tilt, or space flight. Results indicated that production and release of erythropoietin were decreased following simulated weightlessness and in some space flown subjects. The authors conclude that the responses are much more individual in space than during simulation experiments.
