  • Title: Brain protection by erythropoietin: a manifold task.
    Author: Rabie T, Marti HH.
    Journal: Physiology (Bethesda); 2008 Oct; 23():263-74. PubMed ID: 18927202.
    Abstract:
    Many hematopoietic growth factors are produced locally in the brain. Among these, erythropoietin (Epo), has a dominant role for neuroprotection, neurogenesis, and acting as a neurotrophic factor in the central nervous system. These functions make erythropoietin a good candidate for treating diseases associated with neuronal cell death.
